Hi, I have a catch-all servlet mapping to push all requests to my Struts controller in web.xml;
<servlet-mapping> <servlet-name>controller</servlet-name> <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern> </servlet-mapping> I have 2 action mappings; <action path="/view" forward="/views/layout.jsp"/> <action path="/**" type="com.blah.action.PageAction" /> When I request http://www.domain.com/view Struts finds the action mapping and delegates a forward to /views/layout.jsp. However, /views/layout.jsp is being picked up by the /* servlet mapping in web.xml and being routed back to Struts. This time because there is no action mapping for /views/layout.jsp it goes to the wildcard action mapping and that action's tile view is returned. This causes an infinite loop in Struts. Is this more to do with the servlet mapping, or is there something I can instruct Struts to do with regard to getting that JSP out to the response without causing another call to the controller? I need every request to go into the struts framework, but I also need my JSPs to work inside struts which is not happening right now due to this infinite loop.
