Is there a default action if the requested action dosen't exist?

[Antony Stace <s4...@yahoo.com>]

Hi

Can I make a default action.  If the user types in a wrong/incorrect/bogus file path after a valid struts
application, ie

http://localhost:8180:/testapp.do/logo.do              
http://localhost:8180:/testapp.do/asdufho           

then I want the request to be mapped to

http://localhost:8180:/testapp/logon.do

How can I do this?

Cheers

Tony

In your web.xml file, insert somethink like:

<error-page>
  <error-code>404</error-code>
  <location>/logon.do</location>
</error-page>

(Note that the order of elements in web.xml is important; error-page 
tags should come right after any 'welcom-file-list' tag)

Also note that forwarding to the login page will not work if you are 
using container-manager security (as then you are not allowed to forward 
to the login page directly), however forwarding to something like 
'/notFound.do' will work.
