Hi Puneet,

I was just playing with hiding JSP beneath WEB-INF/ and Modules today.

What you can do is edit your struts-module-config.xml
and as part of the <controller> you can add the forwardPattern property

e.g. My setup is <set-property property="forwardPattern" value="/WEB-INF/jsp$M$P"/>, so that my forward paths don't contain the WEB-INF/jsp

read section 5.2.1 at http://struts.apache.org/userGuide/configuration.html
$M is module, and $P is path
By default it is "$M$P" like you have found out, but you're probably after $P.

I think you might need to add this to each struts module config.xml that you do. Does anyone know if you can set default controller properties for all modules-config.xml?

cya,
Jurn

I want to do both "hide my JSPs behind WEB-INF" and use "Struts modules".

and this does not work, I looked into the struts code. it does the following

If the path of ActionForward starts with "/", it obtains the module prefix and prefixes this to the path so...
If my path was say "/WEB-INF/pages/INY0010S.jsp" it becomes "/iny/WEB-INF/pages/INY0010S.jsp"
( which is unwanted......I wanted..."/WEB-INF/pages/INY0010S.jsp" )



but if the path of ActionForward does not start with "/", it leaves the path as it is ( i.e. does not prefix the module-prefix)
but then the requested URI becomes like this


http://<ipaddress>:<port>/<web-context-root><ActionForward-path>

instead of

http://<ipaddress>:<port>/<web-context-root>/<ActionForward-path>

so the problem is there is no slash - "/" before "<ActionForward-path>"

so if my path was "WEB-INF/pages/INY0010S.jsp" it searches for "http://<ipaddress>:<port>/<web-context-root>WEB-INF/pages/INY0010S.jsp"
which gives error...Can anyone suggest the way out..?


or does this require a fix ? only a Quick resolution of this will be able help.
