newbie question - can't get message to display

[Patrick Beagan <Pa...@crd.com>]

I want to display a message on a jsp as a result of a user logging on.
I do a saveMessages() in my Action class then forward to my jsp.
Nothing is displayed.  Can anyone see what I am doing wrong?

Thanks, Patrick

 

 

 

In my Action class: 

 

                        ActionMessage msg = new
ActionMessage("status.welcome", username);

                        ActionMessages msgs = new ActionMessages();

                        msgs.add("status", msg);

                        saveMessages(request, msgs);

 

In the resulting jsp:

 

<html:messages property="status" id="m"></html:messages>

 

 

Struts-config : 

 

       <!-- Process a user logon -->

       <action    path="/SubmitLogon"

                  type="net.pwb.web.actions.LogonAction"

                  input="/WEB-INF/forms/logon.jsp"

                  name="LogonForm"

                 scope="session">

         <forward name="failure" path="/Logon.do" redirect="true"/>

          <forward name="success" path="/welcome.jsp" />

 

RE: newbie question - can't get message to display

["David G. Friedman" <hu...@ix.netcom.com>]

Where is your bean:write statement in the html:messages JSP tag?

**** But the real reason is your redirect="true".  You save the 
messages to the request scope but the redirect="true" forces
the client to invoke a NEW request (losing all the old messages)
to get to the /Logon.do action.  

Try changing it to redirect="false" and specifying the JSP instead
of an action (or the controller will reprocess everything when it
tried to internally go to /Logon.do and could result in the errors
talked about in the last few days on this list).

Regards,
David
