Peter,
In your web.xml, does your Struts ActionServlet have init params just like
this: (per your mesage below)
<init-param>
<param-name>config</param-name>
<param-value>/WEB-INF/struts-config.xml</param-value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>config/index</param-name>
<param-value>/WEB-INF/index-config.xml</param-value>
</init-param>
If not, then how are you specifing your struts config .xml files to the
ActionServlet?
See manual page:
http://struts.apache.org/userGuide/configuration.html#module_config-inform_c

David

Subject: global forwards in module config files
Hello,
I am just in the course of moving from 1.0.x to 1.2 and the new version
should make heavy use of the modules that came with 1.1.
Now here is my problem:
I want to store a global forward in any module's config file named
"moduleHome" where "module" would be replaced with the actual module name.
In the "main" app, I want to have an action "loadModule.do" that should be
told where to forward to via a parameter.
While this works well, as long as the global forwards are all in the
"main" config file, it fails as soon as I put them in the individual
module-config-files.
Is this a "known feature", or am I just doing something wrong?
This is how it works:
--------- struts-config.xml ----------
<struts-config>
...
<global-forwards>
<forward name="home" path="/index.jsp" redirect="false"/>
<forward name="loginform" path="/login.jsp" redirect="false"/>
<forward name="error500" path="/error/err500.jsp" redirect="false"/>
<forward name="trylogin" path="/loginAction.do" redirect="false"/>
<forward name="indexHome" contextRelative="true"
path="/index/index.do" redirect="true"/>
.... more ....
</global-forwards>
...
</struts-config>
--------- end ---------
this is how it does NOT work:
--------- struts-config.xml ----------
<struts-config>
...
<global-forwards>
<forward name="home" path="/index.jsp" redirect="false"/>
<forward name="loginform" path="/login.jsp" redirect="false"/>
<forward name="error500" path="/error/err500.jsp" redirect="false"/>
<forward name="trylogin" path="/loginAction.do" redirect="false"/>
</global-forwards>
...
</struts-config>
--------- index-config.xml ----------
<struts-config>
...
<global-forwards>
<forward name="indexHome" contextRelative="true" path="index.do"
redirect="true"/>
</global-forwards>
...
</struts-config>
--------- end ---------
many thanks,
Peter
