Problem forwarding to an action in another webapp
We develop an application with Struts MVC. In this application, we have
two webApps containing some Struts Actions in each one (i.e two
Struts-config.xml files). These both webApps are in separate EAR files.
Example:
Webapp1 contains action11 and action12
Webapp2 contains action21 and action22
My concern is when I'm in the action11 and I want forward in the
action22 directly I found the error "Invalid path was requested". I
tried this configuration:
<action path="/action11" type="ca.xyz.Action11" name="action11Form"
parameter="event">
<forward name="success"
path="/Webapp2/action22.do?event=initCreate"/>
</action>
Somebody can help me,
Thx.

Oups... I didn't saw the webapps were in SEPARATE ear files... you will
probably encounter some bad classloader issues.
Do a redirect, not a forward.

You want redirect instead of forward, so put redirect="true" to your
forward (is it true by default?) You may also need to patch your
URL/context as well. This is essentialy a different web site.

Action path is relative to the current webapp.
What you want is a crosscontext forward, ie. :
getServletContext().getContext("/Webapp2").getRequestDispatcher("/action2.do").forward(...)
Be sure your container accept it.
Hope helps.
