I fixed this issue by changing my "Cancel" (submit) button to use the "action" attribute for a cancel action, see change below. Sharing just in case someone else runs into this issue.
Previously ----------- <s:submit value="Cancel" name="redirectAction:cancelAlbum"/> Fixed ------ <s:submit value="Cancel" action="cancelAlbum"/> Todd Kofford tkoff...@ku.edu University of Kansas - IT -----Original Message----- From: Kofford, C Todd [mailto:tkoff...@ku.edu] Sent: Monday, March 15, 2010 10:20 AM To: user@struts.apache.org Subject: Cancel-Redirect Action not working on Portlet I am using Struts 2.1.8.1 with the portlet plug-in, and my webapp, a simple album database, is deployed on a tomcat 6 container. When running this webapp stand-alone the cancel button action correctly fires and calls the "cancelAlbum" action, but when running the same webapp as a portlet in uPortal 3.1.2, the cancel button fires the action defined for the form, "saveAlbum", not the redirected one that I defined in the submit tag for the cancel button. I have the following form defined in a JSP, for adding/editing an album: <s:form action="saveAlbum" method="post"> <s:textfield name="album.artist" label="%{getText('label.artist')}" size="40"/> <s:textfield name="album.title" label="%{getText('label.title')}" size="40"/> <s:textfield name="album.releaseYear" label="%{getText('label.releaseYear')}" size="20"/> <s:select name="album.genre.genreId" list="genres" listKey="genreId" listValue="name"/> <s:hidden name="album.albumId"/> <s:submit value="%{getText('button.label.submit')}"/> <s:submit value="%{getText('button.label.cancel')}" name="redirectAction:cancelAlbum"/> </s:form> I have the following actions defined in my struts.xml file, and my action class, AlbumAction, implements the methods (list(), save(), delete(), input(), cancel()): <package name="portlet-default" extends="struts-portlet-default" namespace="/portlet"> <action name="index" class="edu.ku.it.si.struts2portlet.action.AlbumAction" method="list"> <result name="success">/jsp/albums.jsp</result> </action> <action name="*Album" class="edu.ku.it.si.struts2portlet.action.AlbumAction" method="{1}"> <result name="success">/jsp/albums.jsp</result> <result name="input">/jsp/albumForm.jsp</result> <result name="cancel">/jsp/albums.jsp</result> <result name="error">/jsp/error.jsp</result> </action> </package> Anyone have any ideas why <s:submit value="%{getText('button.label.cancel')}" name="redirectAction:cancelAlbum"/> is not working for a portlet?
