I've placed a blank index.do under my webapp and everything works great! I believe the web container first checks for the existence of the file before submitting the request. If file = true request is submitted and struts magic begins =)

My understanding is that the webapp spec requires that files in the welcome-file-list be actual files, not servlets, because it has to test for their existence to decide which welcome file to use. So, "/index.do" won't work.

Have you tried configuring the <welcome-file-list> in web.xml. I guess you
can do all this there.

Hi all,

Sorry about the subject line, it's the best I can do in one sentance.

What I'm trying to do, is set up the wecome file, so that instead of

having


to go via a html or jsp page, I can go straight to an action class! Any
ideas?

If someone types in htt://our.site.com/ourapp then it should go straight

to


the welcome.do Action and not a html file.

I'm using struts1.1 and stxx.

Cheers

Simon
