hi, well i have an action that compiles all the data necessary for a page (presents a newsletter being created), newsletter.do. i also have an action that attaches an image to the newsletter (image.do), which after putting the image in the db as a blob forwards control back to newsletter.do to reload the newsletter and show it.
without the multipart spec the code works (but of course i can't upload a file), and the chain forwarding to the other action works as well. cheers, Ben -----Original Message----- From: Joe Germuska [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 11 februari 2004 14:39 To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: Re: multipart problem When you forward to a second action, you re-invoke the entire request processing chain, which means that you get a new form object created, etc. This is why you'll frequently see recommendations against "action chaining." Of course, if you get rid of the form encoding, you won't be able to do file upload at all, so that's not Are you sure that forwarding to a second action is the only way to process the data? Perhaps you can rearrange things to avoid re-invoking the request processor.
