Following the example validator application, I make a simple action config like so:
<!-- Contact Action --> <action path="/contact" forward="/contact.jsp" /> <action path="/contact-submit" type="com.mycompany.actions.ContactAction" name="contactForm" scope="request" validate="true" input="input-form"> <forward name="input-form" path="/contact.do" /> <forward name="success" path="/contacted.jsp" /> </action> I have the validator plugin turned on and validating the form. If I submit it with no form values filled in, then I get the following exception: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Path input-form does not start with a "/" character The reason? The action's input attribute is set to the value "input-form". This simply references the forward named "input-form", just like the example. But the validator plugin errors out because the "input-form" does not start with a "/". Changing the input attribute and forward name to "/input-form" does not help because it then tries the literal URI "/input-form" and I then get a 404 with: The requested resource (/input-form) is not available. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
