Hi Friends,

<action path="/LoginExceptionTest" scope="session" type="com.training.struts.day4.LoginExceptionTestAction" name="ExceptionTestBean">

Hi

Jsp page must have form bean and action class ( struts projects). I am not sure about this.

So i want to share one example to you.

i create simple login project.

I use three files are login.jsp , LoginSuccess.jsp and LoginFaliure.jsp.
If successfully login then go to LoginSuccess.jsp. Otherwise LoginFaliure.jsp.

Just validate the username and password in LoginAction.do file.

Here i write code for config.xml file. I think its useful for you.


struts-config.xml

  
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>

<!DOCTYPE struts-config PUBLIC
          "-//Apache Software Foundation//DTD Struts Configuration 1.3//EN"
          "http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/dtds/struts-config_1_3.dtd">


<struts-config>
    <form-beans>
        <form-bean name="LoginForm" type="login.form.LoginForm"/>
    </form-beans>
    
    <global-exceptions>    
    </global-exceptions>

    <global-forwards>
        <forward name="welcome"  path="/Welcome.do"/>
    </global-forwards>

    <action-mappings>
       <action input="/" name="LoginForm" path="/login/LoginAction" 
                                                                    scope="session" type="login.action.LoginAction" validate="false">            
             <forward name="success" path="/login/LoginSuccess.jsp"/>
             <forward name="failure" path="/login/LoginFaliure.jsp"/>
        </action>
    </action-mappings>
    
    <controller processorClass="org.apache.struts.tiles.TilesRequestProcessor"/>
    <message-resources parameter="com/myapp/struts/ApplicationResource"/>
     <plug-in className="org.apache.struts.tiles.TilesPlugin" >
        <set-property property="definitions-config" value="/WEB-INF/tiles-defs.xml" />
        <set-property property="moduleAware" value="true" />
    </plug-in>
    
    <!-- ========================= Validator plugin ================================= -->
    <plug-in className="org.apache.struts.validator.ValidatorPlugIn">
        <set-property
            property="pathnames"
            value="/WEB-INF/validator-rules.xml,/WEB-INF/validation.xml"/>
    </plug-in>
  
</struts-config>
