A follow-up and conclusion for the this issue: This issue was related to an appfuse project based on the struts2 archetype.
The web.xml was configured as an error-page directive that was pointing to a URL that is normally rewritten to an action with parameters being passed in. As a processes of updating the theme of the project had included a number of CSS file references that were no longer valid - therefore a 404 error was the result of those requests, then being redirected to the action URL configured in the error-page condition. Therefore the action was executed several times due to the missing resource (in this case the CSS files). To debug this error/configuration, I had created a couple of JSP files that would be filtered through a decorator. The other would not be passed through the decorator using the excludes parameter. One page (the one through the decorator template) would fire the action, the other would not. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
