I always get the following exception: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Path success does not start with a "/" character org.apache.struts.action.RequestProcessor.doForward(RequestProcessor.java:1078) org.apache.struts.tiles.TilesRequestProcessor.doForward(TilesRequestProcessor.java:263) org.apache.struts.action.RequestProcessor.processForwardConfig(RequestProcessor.java:398) org.apache.struts.tiles.TilesRequestProcessor.processForwardConfig(TilesRequestProcessor.java:318) org.apache.struts.action.RequestProcessor.process(RequestProcessor.java:241) org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet.process(ActionServlet.java:1196) org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet.doPost(ActionServlet.java:432) javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:709) javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:802) The sturs-config.xml seems to be set properly: <action path = "/Test" type = "TestAction" name = "TestBean" scope = "request" validate = "false" input = "/pages/test/index.jsp"> <forward name="success" path="/pages/test/test_out.jsp"/> </action> The call of the action in the JSP seems also to be correct: <html:form action="/Test.do"> <html:submit property="action">Submit</html:submit> </html:form> The execute Method of the actions is: public ActionForward execute(ActionMapping arg0, ActionForm arg1, HttpServletRequest arg2, HttpServletResponse arg3) throws Exception { return new ActionForward("success"); } Does anyone sees the problem and can help me?
