             Summary: Wildcard redirect and path /static/
                 Key: WW-4656
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WW-4656
             Project: Struts 2
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.5.1, 2.5
            Reporter: Markus Fischer
            Priority: Minor


I do stumble over a new behaviour in Struts 2.5.

Working with:

<action name="*">
<result type="redirect">
<param name="location">/home</param>
<param name="namespace">/</param>
</result>
</action>


To catch/redirect unknown request to the home page, the following requests will 
not be processed:

https://localhost:8443/myApp/static/whatever

The path /static/ seems to trigger a "special" behaviour since Struts 2.5?

There is also an inconsistency between:

https://localhost:8443/myApp/whatever/ (correct 404)
https://localhost:8443/myApp/static/ (empty white page)

Why is the path /static/ treated differently, and where is the exact class 
responsible for this?

Thanks for considering.

Markus
