Noticed that messagesPresent is TRUE when a JSP is served from an ActionServlet. This causes logic within <messagesPresent> to be executed- for example validation errors are inappropriately displayed. This works fine if the JSP is render directly, but a common practice is for all web navigation to flow in and out of ActionServlets. **** I have never seen this happen before. How long have you been using Struts? (This is not a jab but a serious question.) **** MVC/Model 2 requires that requests go throught the controller, and the controller selects the next view. *** What are the error messages? *** Which class in the system saves those error messages in the first place? an ActionForm? an Action? a Custom RequestProcessor? *** Typically only ActionForms and Actions genereate error messages. *** Suggestions: *** Look at the message. Look in the resource bundle. Find the key associated with the message. Grep your source for the key to see who is putting the message in. I'm assuming that this is happening because the request contains either ActionMessages or ActionErrors or both. I tried setting both to null within the ActionServer before rendering the JSP (saveMessages(request, null); and saveErrors(request, null);), but that did not work. Argh. *** Explain this. What is the ActionServer? *** Do you mean you do this in an Action? RequestProcessor? or did you override the ActionServlet? *** When do you do this? How can I resolve this? Thanks. *** I gave some pointers above. Turn on logging to a high level using commons logging. - Chris --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
