I am trying to update a simple web app that was built with struts2, jsp and standard servlets.
I am trying to redirect a url to a specific action but can't seem to get it to work right.
For example, the url that is correct is:
http://localhost:8080/theapp/lookup/search.action
Here is my web.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE web-app PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN"
"http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd"><web-app>
<display-name>theapp</display-name>
<filter>
<filter-name>struts2</filter-name>
<filter-class>
org.
apache.struts2.dispatcher.FilterDispatcher
</filter-class>
</filter>
<filter-mapping>
<filter-name>struts2</filter-name>
<url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>
<listener>
<listener-class>
org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener
</listener-class>
</listener>
And here is my struts.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<!DOCTYPE struts PUBLIC "-//Apache Software Foundation//DTD Struts Configuration
2.0//EN" "http://struts.
apache.org/dtds/struts-2.0.dtd">
<default-action-ref name="search" />
<action name="search" method="search" class="com.theapp.SearchAction" >
<result>index.jsp</result>
<result name="input" >index.jsp</result>
<result name="error" type="redirect">site_locator_mobile/error.action</result>
</action>
The problem here is that if I don't specify the correct url as above, I just get the index.jsp file, but without any properties in index.jsp being processed because the information is contained in the servlet.
What I would like to is if someone just entered:
http://localhost:8080/theapp/lookup/
than they would be taken to:
http://localhost:8080/theapp/lookup/search.action
Thanks
