Re: preferred way to jump start app into struts?

Luis- there's nothing wrong with your code, but Rusty is also right. The trick is to create an empty file called the same name as your action (e.g. start.action) at the root of your web app. Tomcat will see the empty file and then call your action directly. 2009/8/30 Luis Martín Canaval Sánchez

Re: preferred way to jump start app into struts?

Hi all, Musachy and Dave are wright, you only need this: default-action-ref name=index/default-action-ref in your struts.xml no file in tomcat is needed, i use it in my www.isiak.pl app so you can check it out, it's on tomcat. Also one can do any redirect or anything else in this default

Re: preferred way to jump start app into struts?

I didn't know about the empty file trick; thanks. It's annoying that this isn't defined in the servlet spec. Each servlet container does it differently; with jetty you can have the welcome-file point to a servlet (although I must be doing something wrong since I couldn't get it to work). My

Re: preferred way to jump start app into struts?

Thanks, that works well. I think I didn't try that because I couldn't get a similar setup to work with Spring MVC. Paweł Wielgus wrote: Hi all, Musachy and Dave are wright, you only need this: default-action-ref name=index/default-action-ref in your struts.xml no file in tomcat is

preferred way to jump start app into struts?

Is there a preferred way to jump start a web app when the user starts at the top; e.g., they use the url http://somehost.com/myapp/ What I'm doing now is putting a redirect in index.jsp, as follows. Is there a better way? ?xml version=1.0 encoding=ISO-8859-1 ? %@ page

Re: preferred way to jump start app into struts?

This is my preffered choice, just a welcome page defined in the web.xml file welcome-file-list welcome-filestart.action/welcome-file /welcome-file-list /web-app No redirects just straight to the action. On Sat, Aug 29, 2009 at 17:34, Rusty Wright rusty.wri...@gmail.com

Re: preferred way to jump start app into struts?

Luis, are you using tomcat? I've tried that but it only works for me when the welcome-file is a actual, physical file in the ~tomcat/webapps/myapp directory. Luis Martín Canaval Sánchez wrote: This is my preffered choice, just a welcome page defined in the web.xml file welcome-file-list

Re: preferred way to jump start app into struts?

What do you mean by Use a welcome page? As far as I can tell I can't have welcome-file specify a resource that's inside the app (i.e., maps to an Action), it has to be an actual, physical file. In other words, the web.xml tag is welcome-file, not welcome-url or welcome-resource, so it has to

My bad, I´m really sorry the code I posted is totally wrong. please ignore it. I usually start with a index.jsp or html as a welcome page. On Sat, Aug 29, 2009 at 18:37, Rusty Wright rusty.wri...@gmail.com wrote: Luis, are you using tomcat? I've tried that but it only works for me when the
