Problem while Struts 2 and Tiles 2 integration.
Hi All,
I have created a small application to get familiar with the Struts 2 and
Tiles 2 integration.
I am using *struts2-tiles-plugin-2.0.5.jar* , *
tiles-api-2.0-20070130.184344-3.jar* and *
tiles-core-2.0-20070130.184344-3.jar* for the integration. (but the struts
core jar I am using is *struts2-core-2.0.1.jar *)
The dtd i used is http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/dtds/tiles-config_2_0.dtd
I have configured some actions and jsps to use Struts2 APIs and struts/tiles
tags
I am using Tomcat 5 as a web server.
When I start the tomcat, the application loads properly and no error is
thrown while bootstrap.
I even can load my first page which is a simple login page. But when I enter
something and login, I get following exception about the *tiles definition*
*<Exception>*
*Messages*: I/O Error reading definitions. *File*:
org/apache/tiles/definition/digester/DigesterDefinitionsReader.java *Line

The snippet of my tiles-def file is

tried using "path" attribute also -->*

</definition>
<definition name="earray.homepage" extends="earray.masterContent">
<put name="upperbody" value="/pages/homePage.jsp"/>
</definition>
</tiles-definitions>
*</snip>*
And the snipped from my struts.xml is.
*<snip>*
<struts>
<package name="" namespace="/" extends="struts-default">
<result-types>
<result-type name="tiles" class="
org.apache.struts2.views.tiles.TilesResult"/>
</result-types>
<action name="Login" class="sample.Login">
<result type="redirect">topMenu.action</result>
</action>
<action name="landingPage" class=" sample.Login" method="show">
<result>/pages/login.jsp</result>
</action>
<action name="topMenu" class="sample.topmostMenu" >
<result type="tiles">earray.homepage</result>
</action>
</package >
</struts>
*</snip>*
I even configured the *org.apache.struts2.tiles.StrutsTilesListener* in the
web.xml
Can anybody help me out?
One more thing I want to know is which tiles taglib should i use? First i
used the one which I used for struts 1-tiles 1 integration. Then I tried
without specifying any tld configuration in web.xml at all. (becoz in the
examples i searched, i didnt find anyone specifying it.)
Thanks an Regards,
Abhijeet.

Objet : Re: Problem while Struts 2 and Tiles 2 integration.
I received this error as well, and discovered the cause to actually be my tiles.xml. The Struts2 tiles.xml needs to follow the schema defined in "http://struts.apache.org/dtds/tiles-config_2_0.dtd", and if your tiles.xml differs from it, you may receive this exception. In my case, I was porting over a struts1 tiles.xml, and missed one of the syntax changes. So I had:
<definition name="2colLayout" path="/WEB-INF/templates/2col.jsp">
instead of:
<definition name="2colLayout" template="/WEB-INF/templates/2col.jsp">
for one of my entries. So when the tiles plugin wanted to open my actual layout page, it did not see the correct entry for it (it did not see the tag "template="), and threw the I/O exception. Double check your tiles.xml and ensure that it has the correct syntax for struts2 tiles.
You may not have noticed the syntax error if you were using an IDE (which should have validated your XML for you), because the "http://struts.apache.org/dtds/tiles-config_2_0.dtd" doesn't actually exist!
It looks like apache forgot to put in on their site, so you won't know of your syntax issues until runtime.

Sorry, I may not have been very clear about this. Your web app may likely
not be configured to match the build of Tiles you are using. Check the
web.xml and see if it matches the link below. If not you may either need to
change your web.xml or move to a different build of Tiles.

Re: Problem while Struts 2 and Tiles 2 integration.

I would suspect that your problem lies in one of two areas:
1) Your web app is not configured correctly.
2) You're not using a build of Tiles 2 that is compatible with the version
of Struts.
I didn't see the exception you posted so it's hard to determine which. I'll
check the archives if I get a chance today.
Most people seem to be finding success by following the example of the
tiles-test webapp:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/tiles/framework/trunk/tiles-test/
and:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/tiles/framework/trunk/tiles-test/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/web.xml

Did you mean 2.0.5?
Are you positive you have all the correct jars? It'd
probably be better if they were all from the same
release.
Is your tiles file actually getting deployed?

Why are you using 2.0.1 core and 2.0.5 tiles plugin?
This strikes me as being a bad idea, although I'll
admit trying it never really crossed my mind.
