Hi,
I wanted to cut down to the minumim interceptors so I removed my references to struts-default, by setting struts.configuration.files invarious places, documentation confilcts quite a bit <constant name="struts.configuration.files" value="struts.xml"/> in struts.xml struts.configuration.files=struts.xml in struts.properties and even tried in web.xml <filter> <filter-name>struts</filter-name> <filter-class>org.apache.struts2.dispatcher.FilterDispatcher</filter-class> <init-param> <param-name>struts.configuration.files</param-name> <param-value>struts.xml</param-value> </init-param> </filter> becasue it was mentioned in a bug report https://issues.apache.org/struts/browse/WW-1966 But i still get all 18 of the defaultStack interceptors being called even though I have created my own stack and called <default-interceptor-ref name="football"/> in the struts.xml for the package, also extends="" is set for the package. My own stack gets ignored. Is there something I am doing wrong? struts version 2.1.6 _________________________________________________________________ Windows Liveā¢: Keep your life in sync. http://windowslive.com/explore?ocid=TXT_TAGLM_BR_life_in_synch_052009
