It seems that you're trying to prepopulate a form with values from the DB before showing it to the user.
So, you have 1) call /EditionPersonne to prepopulate the form 2) show EditerPersonne.jsp to display the form 3) submit the form to /SomePathLikeSubmitPersonne If so, you don't need to specify the "form" attribute in /EditionPersonne. The "form" attribute identifies the input form for that Action, to carry the data being submitted to that Action. Try removing the "scope", "form" and "input" attributes to /EditionPersonne, and specify them instead on the Action to which the form will be submitted to. On the other hand, if EditerPersonneAction extends a DispatchAction class, send another message and we'll offer a different solution.
