>             Project: Struts 2
>          Issue Type: Bug

> If the template location is either null or an empty string "" FreemarkerResult will take the request uri org.apache.struts2.views.freemarker.FreemarkerResult#doExecute and load it as a template.
> Example url, http://localhost:8080/com/acme/actions/Action.class/ would load /com/acme/actions/Action.class/ as a template and dump the bytecode in the response.
> The "feature" / culprit below seems a little exotic, however someone may be relying on it.. (same actions handling stuff in different directories?)
> if (!locationArg.startsWith("/")) {
>             String base = ResourceUtil.getResourceBase(req);
>             locationArg = base + "/" + locationArg;
> }
> To mitigate the problem and maintain previous functionality we could throw an exception if the template location is empty, I have created a pull request with my proposed fix https://github.com/apache/struts2/pull/1
