Ok I gave this a try and it worked. However something VERY weird happened. Since I am using tiles, all of my forwards go to a tiles definition. When I tried your suggestion:
String replacementLink = mapping.findForward("audit.app.login").getPath(); super.saveMessage(request, "auditapp.login.duplicate.user.error", (String)f.get("email"), replacementLink); return mapping.getInputForward(); the name of the tiles definition in the forward audit.app.login was inserted into the link: <a href="audit.app.login">login</a> but when I click on the link, I do get to the login page. Like I said in my original email, I am just picking up struts again after a break from it so I am not aware of all the changes that have been made to the framework recently. I would however would like to know that this is normal behavior. Thanks again for your help!!!

If that is your email address, please use that email address as your login along with the password you were supplied. 3) In your Action, obtain the path of the forward, get its path, and place it in the message. Using your code as a basis: catch(DuplicateUserException dupEx){ log.error("Caught DuplicateUserException in execute.... of AuditAppRegistrationAction"); // This is the link created from the forward you defined in step 1 String replacementLink = mapping.findForward("appRegisterLoginForward").getPath(); super.saveMessage(request, "auditapp.login.duplicate.user.error", (String)f.get("email"), replacementLink); return mapping.getInputForward(); } This way, the creation and rewriting of the link itself is handled by normal struts mechanisms, and you can manage the links in your struts-config.xml file.
