I have developed a native client interface which calls struts2 JSON RPC using post method. I have set content type, content length as suggested in the spec. The request body looks like as follows : {"method": "uploadTxpAssignment","id": "txpUploadRequest", "params":{"addressByDestAddrId":{"addrLine1":"test home","addrLine2":"7th ave","addressId":2,"aptRoomNo":5,"city":"queens","phone":"435-577-4567","state":"NY","zipCode":10183},"atDestTime":null,"callRcvdTime":"2009-11-26T08:01:00","comments":"comments1","dateCreated":"2009-11-26T00:00:00","dateModified":null,"user":{"dateCreated":null,"dateModified":null,"dob":"1956-09-18T00:00:00","firstName":"passfname","gender":"Male","lastName":"patient1lname","mi":null,"ssn":null,"userId":10000}}} The struts.xml configurations are : <action name="UploadAction" class="com.actions.upload.UploadAction" method="smd"> <interceptor-ref name="json"> <param name="enableSMD">true</param> <param name="ignoreSMDMethodInterfaces">false</param> </interceptor-ref> <result type="json"> <param name="enableSMD">true</param> <param name="ignoreInterfaces">false</param> <param name="contentType">text/plain</param> <param name="bufferSize">1024</param> <param name="allowCaching">false</param> <param name="contentCharSet">UTF-8</param> </result> </action> The simple action code body : public class UploadCallreportAction { private TransportAssignmentVO transport; /** * @return the transport */ public TransportAssignmentVO getTransport() { return transport; } /** * @param transport the transport to set */ public void setTransport(TransportAssignmentVO transport) { this.transport = transport; } public String smd() { return Action.SUCCESS; } @SMDMethod public void uploadTxpAssignment(TransportAssignmentVO txpVO) { setTransport(txpVO); System.out.println("The Tansport assignment is for Run #:"+ transport.getRunNumber()); } } When I run the client the call reaches the server and returns me an exception : :35,013 ERROR [RPCError] java.util.HashMap cannot be cast to java.util.List java.lang.ClassCastException: java.util.HashMap cannot be cast to java.util.List at org.apache.struts2.json.JSONInterceptor.invoke(JSONInterceptor.java:204) at org.apache.struts2.json.JSONInterceptor.intercept(JSONInterceptor.java:131) at com.opensymphony.xwork2.DefaultActionInvocation.invoke(DefaultActionInvocation.java:237) at org.apache.struts2.impl.StrutsActionProxy.execute(StrutsActionProxy.java:52) at org.apache.struts2.dispatcher.Dispatcher.serviceAction(Dispatcher.java:488) at org.apache.struts2.dispatcher.FilterDispatcher.doFilter(FilterDispatcher.java:395) I am also using Spring 2.5 and Hibernate JPA in the same app.... Not sure if there is any conflict.I have followed the simple rules to set up the JSON RPC.However I am not able to resolve the problem. Please let me know if anyone has a solution for this.
