The error I'm getting is: javax.servlet.ServletException: Path
BOOK_TRIP_TO_EARTH.tiles does not start with a "/" character
org.apache.struts.chain.ComposableRequestProcessor.process(ComposableRequestProcessor.java:286)
org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet.process(ActionServlet.java:1913)
org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet.doGet(ActionServlet.java:449)
javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:689)
javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:802)
org.apache.struts2.dispatcher.FilterDispatcher.doFilter(FilterDispatcher.java:413)
where the BookTripToEarthAction is a S1 action. (the app is like
HelloWorld, but from the Martian's view, it becomes "GreetingsEarth")
I have the following parameters in web.xml
<context-param>
<param-name>org.apache.tiles.CONTAINER_FACTORY</param-name>
<param-value>
org.apache.struts2.tiles.StrutsTilesContainerFactory
</param-value>
</context-param>
<context-param>
<param-name>
org.apache.tiles.impl.BasicTilesContainer.DEFINITIONS_CONFIG
</param-name>
<param-value>/WEB-INF/tiles.xml</param-value>
</context-param>
and the Tiles Listener as:
<listener>
<listener-class>
org.apache.tiles.listener.TilesListener
</listener-class>
</listener>
The same error when I change the Tiles Container Factory to:
org.apache.tiles.factory.TilesContainerFactory
The S2/T2 pages work fine, but not the S1/T2 pages.
Any Suggestions? Thx,
