Wizard (multipage flow) with Struts 2
Hi, Has anyone developed Wizard in Struts 2 without using Spring webflow plugin. Practical Apache Struts 2 book has an example to develop wizard using scope interceptor. But Scope interceptor does not seem to work with ModelDriven interceptor. If anyone has working example, please share the same. Regards, Shrinivas
AW: File upload from JSP with "multipart/form-data" does not work on Weblogic v12c
I just tested the upload actions in the Struts 2 showcase and the findings are the same: the file upload is broken in Weblogic v12.1.1. Who will fix that? Thanks, Peter -Ursprüngliche Nachricht- Von: peter.kel...@meteoswiss.ch [mailto:peter.kel...@meteoswiss.ch] Gesendet: Dienstag, 31. Januar 2012 15:14 An: user@struts.apache.org Betreff: File upload from JSP with "multipart/form-data" does not work on Weblogic v12c Dear list File upload from JSP with "multipart/form-data" does not work on Weblogic v12c which supports Java Servlet specification v3.0. The same code worked as expected for Weblogic v10.3.X which supports Java Servlet specification v2.4. The same code does NOT work with Struts v2.1.8 on Weblogic v12c. Debugging the application with Weblogic running in Eclipse I found out, that ALL parameters given in the JSP form (data, contextTx) are simply ignored. The "method" attribute in the tag is also ignored and therefore Struts always invokes the execute() method of the Struts action. Please find the setup below. Is this is a bug? Or is something wrong with the setup?
