To preserve messages across redirects, you need to do a little magic.
Struts 1.2 does not have the automatic ability to put messages into session
scope if validation fails. Instead, you should customize the Controller
(through a subclass you write) to copy any messages from the request into
the session if they are unaccessed. You should customize processValidate to
do something similar:
ActionErrors errors = validation.
if (errors are found) {
if (errors are unaccessed) {
create session if necessary;
copy them to session;
}
This will be a standard part of the upcoming 1.4 release.
