Hello, I'm experiencing a strange problem after upgrading from struts 1.1 to 1.3.8. Perhaps the problem is known or expected, I haven't found a solution yet.
Basic structure: setupUser.do fills in the form for a user profile user.jsp displays the user profile form editUser.do dispatches to UserDispatchAction Most of the stuff is quite forward, except that I'm using custom tags to display the form. The tags check the current users group memberships and display or do not display the appropriate input element. Example: there are checkboxes for users access rights. If the current user is in the "admin" group, the boxes get displayed. If the user is not (ie. the user is editing his own profile to change the password) these input elements aren't displayed. After the user hits the "update" button, the data get's forwarded to UserDispatchAction.update(), where I copy it to the model and update the backend. My problem is now: before the upgrade, _every_ attribute/value paris were included in the request, even the ones the user couldn't edit. Now, after the upgrate, only the editable attributes (the ones which had input elements in the form) are transported. The result is, that I'm ending up with a corrupted model because half of the attributes are missing. Everything works fine, if an administrator submits the form (because every attribute has an input element displayed). When a normal user is submitting the form, all elements are listed in the DynaForm object, but are set to null. I'm not sure if the reason for this is some change in the tags (my tags are simply wrappers around the standard struts tags, ie. XylonTextTag extends TextTag) or the changes in the request wrapper system. I tried to set <controller processorClass="org.apache.struts.action.RequestProcessor" /> in the struts config as well, but no change. BTW, I followed every step from http://wiki.apache.org/struts/StrutsUpgrade for the upgrade. And I'm using tomcat 5.0.28...
