Hello List; I am trying to implement validation in struts2.
My action is as follow: <action name="ProjectStatus_*" class="tr.com.portakalteknoloji.action.projectstatus.ProjectStatusAction" method="{1}" > <result name="{1}" type="tiles" >tvq.projectstatus.{1}</result> <result name="input" type="tiles" >tvq.projectstatus.{1}</result> <result name="error" type="tiles">tvq.projectstatus.{1}</result> <result name="ADDSUCCEED" type="redirect">/ProjectStatus_list.action</result> </action> Since when validation process returns false, i want struts to show the same page. I search the web, and saw some solution like above. But, when i try to implement, i could not succeed. Here are my tiles definitions: <definition name="tvq.projectstatus.showAddPage" extends="tvq.template.default"> <put-attribute name="title" value="Add A Project Status" /> <put-attribute name="content" value="/jsp/projectstatus/AddPage.jsp" /> </definition> <definition name="tvq.projectstatus.ListPage" extends="tvq.template.default"> <put-attribute name="title" value="Add A Project Status" /> <put-attribute name="content" value="/jsp/projectstatus/ListPage.jsp" /> </definition> <definition name="tvq.projectstatus.list" extends="tvq.template.default"> <put-attribute name="title" value="Add A Project Status" /> <put-attribute name="content" value="/jsp/projectstatus/ListPage.jsp" /> </definition> I call the page ass follows : http://localhost:8080/TVQ/ProjectStatus_showAddPage.action (the ProjectStatusAction.java has showAddPage, list, and add functions and these functions returns the correct strings.) Then, struts looks the action definition and it finds showAddPage function in ProjectStatus. In result list, there is tvq.projectstatus.showAddPage, and i have this definition in my tiles.xml. Therefore, it shows the page. The problem occures after i press the add button in tvq.projectstatus.showAddPage. here is the content of the tvq.projectstatus.showAddPage(meanly,/jsp/projectstatus/AddPage.jsp) <s:form action="ProjectStatus" validate="true" > <s:fielderror /> <jsp:include page="AddUpdateTemplate.jsp"/> <br/> <table> <tr><td colspan="2"><s:submit method="add" value="Add" /></td></tr> </table> </s:form> And i have a required field validator on a field in my form(this field is listed in AddUpdateTemplate.jsp) ProjectStatus action has add function which returns the "ADDSUCCEED" string on success. When i press the add button without filling the required field, there occure a validation error(which is expected) At this level, i expect struts that it enters the input result which is defined in my action as a result. Here is the result definition. <result name="input" type="tiles" >tvq.projectstatus.{1}</result> I expect the struts to enter in input result, and it does. but it cannot produces the tiles definition, it leaves {1} as empty and produce "tvq.projectstatus." unlike "tvq.projectstatus.showAddPage". What is the problem, i know i am doing something wrong, i read the book "struts2 in action", and searched the web, but could not find such an example. Meanly, i am using method action, tiles and validation together, i could not find such an example. Please help me, Thanks in advance, -Halil Agin the stack trace is below (i am using global exception handler, therefore i copied the html content and paste it here, you may want the output of error console, but please be sure that this is the exact error. i see this error in the console too) Error Message tvq.projectstatus. ------------------------------ Technical Details
