This week's book giveaway is in the Agile and other Processes forum. We're giving away four copies of The Mikado Method and have Ola Ellnestam and Daniel Brolund on-line! See this thread for details.
I cannot modify the way the URL is set as this comes from the Yahoo Servers. What I can try is to configure Struts2 to ignore the parameters starting with .intl, .lang, .ts. But again, I will also need a way to access these parameters from my source code.
Can anyone help me with this? How do I solve this problem?
The complete stack trace of the exception follows :

My first thought would be to modify the parameter names in a filter or interceptor--if you're not using these kinds of parameters across the application, an action-specific interceptor might be the cleanest solution. Or just don't process it with Struts--map it to a servlet instead (which could do whatever it needs to, and/or muck with the parameter names, and potentially forward to an action).
But yes--since S2 (and similar) frameworks will try to map parameter names to actual objects, things like this will cause a problem.

Pardon me for my ignorance as I am very new in Struts2. But will the interceptors be invoked even before the request parameters are parsed and set into the value stack? Also, can I use or override an existing interceptor like ParameterInterceptor for this?

Depends on where you put the interceptor in the stack. And yes, you *could*, but I'm not really sure you'd gain much by doing so.
You might actually be able to use the parameter mapping interceptor (I forget its name at the moment) to do the mapping, but it may have the same problem--I'd imagine it treats the names as object references at well. Making a parameter *name* filter interceptor would be pretty easy, though.
I created a servlet filter and overridden the getParameterMap() directly even before struts could start processing the request. I iterate through the keys and check of a .(dot) and remove it and populate another map with the parameter values and the sanitized keys. This is working for me now.
I hope this is a full proof solution. Please comment.
