META-INF directory stops Convention plugin working
Hi there
I'm trying to get started with Struts2 in particular the Convention plugin.
I've copied the code in the User guide and it works fine but only if I DON'T
have a META-INF directory in my War file, even if that directory is empty.
We are using Maven to build the War so the META-INF directory is always
there.
I'm using Jetty 6.1.11, Struts2 2.1.6.
I have no struts.xml file. All I have in web.xml is:
<filter>
<filter-name>struts2</filter-name>
<filter-class>org.apache.struts2.dispatcher.ng.filter.StrutsPrepareAndExecut
eFilter</filter-class>
</filter>
<filter-mapping>
<filter-name>struts2</filter-name>
<url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>
The error I get on startup is
java.lang.Exception: Could not load WEB-INF/classes/john/action/Hello.class
at
com.opensymphony.xwork2.util.finder.ClassFinder.readClassDef(ClassFinder.jav
a:745)
at
com.opensymphony.xwork2.util.finder.ClassFinder.<init>(ClassFinder.java:148)
at
org.apache.struts2.convention.PackageBasedActionConfigBuilder.findActions(Pa
ckageBasedActionConfigBuilder.java:295)
Anyone know what is going on here?
Thanks in advance
John

Hi John,
We have fixed several issues that might be related to this, can you
try with a version built from svn? Or download the files from here:
http://people.apache.org/builds/struts/2.1.8/. That is not a release
(yet), but it was built from trunk yesterday.
