Hi Lukasz,
Sorry, it was a false alarm to report Struts2 failed to dispatch in case of
duplicate names in the same namespace. I used System.out to monitor the flow
and I didn't see what I expected to see and thought it silently failed. I now
switch to log4j2 framework and can verify the flow from both console and log
file. It is logical to return viewRegistration after the registration is
successfully done.
Thank you for the links! After I get myself comfortable with Struts2 and
complete the migration to Struts2 from Struts1 for all our applications, I will
definitely work on moving from Ant build to Maven. Thank you again!
Regards,Joseph

Duplicated result names don't matter, result names are "action local".
This means you can have an action named "viewRegistration" and at the
same time another action could have a result named "viewRegistration".
Basically the flow is as: http request -> action (by name) -> result
(by name for this action)

Just install Maven and use archetypes to generate your application,
all modern IDEs support Maven out-of-box. Follow these steps
https://struts.apache.org/maven-archetypes/
https://struts.apache.org/getting-started/
If unclear please let me know and I will update the docs.
Cheers
Lukasz
