I am new to Struts 2 framework. I have made a program for understanding modelDriven interceptor. But I am unable to execute it. Following are the list of files and in the end there is a output (error).

In struts.xml file I don't want to use/extend struts-default package. Although, when I include params interceptor entry along with modelDriven interceptor in struts.xml, problem solves. What is the reason behind this. Can any one guide me?
You have a property in the action class that needs initialize prior to the action execution. You can do it in many ways.
The way you have chosen relies on modelDriven interceptor which is running before your action is executed. It invokes getModel() to push it on top of the valueStack. So, your entity property is being initialized. If you remove this interceptor you will get NullPointerException when the action is executed.
If your Entity is a simple POJO that you can instantiate yourself then simply do it inline instead of in getModel().
private Entity en = new Entity();
#Override
public Entity getModel() {
System.out.println("inside model driven....");
return en;
}
Next part is about params interceptor. It uses OGNL to populate a top object that is a model if you have used modelDriven interceptor prior params interceptor.
Living it along with your action allows to initialize some properties you reference in the execute().
For example t1 should be initialized.

I am trying to get the exception via struts2 to display the global results jsp but its not working and instead I am getting a java exception show in console. Also would like to add that If i use interceptor-ref exception individually to an action its working fine but globally not working as intended.
Here is my struts.xml, just addded a simple global results and exceptions.

Once you specify any interceptors you must specify all interceptors.
I have a requirement where passing parameters from one action to another action with No sessions using: Here is my code, I am trying to use scope-interceptor.
here is my code I am not sure what am I doing wrong but I am not able to get the results.

---I would really appreciate if you can help me on where I was doing things wrong..

so we are instantiating session object in each and every other action
right?
Not at all, we are just retrieving it from the ServletActionContext.
How to put in session
ServletActionContext.getContext().getSession().put("softuser", someUserObject);
How to retrieve from session
ServletActionContext.getContext().getSession().get("softuser");

please guide me as to what could be wrong with the code.
thanks,
Your action needs to return JSON, as described on the Ajax and JavaScript Recipes page. (Link to previous version due to a wiki export issue). Nutshell: use the JSON plugin.
<action name="fruits" class="mypack.FruitsAction" method="display">
<result type="json">
<param name="root">fruits</param>
</result>
</action>
Note that I'm explicitly setting the "root" element to your list of fruits. I'm also eliminating the redundancy in the name of the list of fruits; it's a list of fruits–its name should be fruits.
Lastly, the Dojo plugin has been deprecated for at least a couple of years now, for a variety of reasons. I'd strongly consider using something like the Struts 2 jQuery Plugin or simply using raw Dojo if you have a need for Dojo explicitly.
Thanks to Dave Newton, i have below solution to my issue.
i modified the code to use JSON along with autocompleter and
included struts2-json-plugin-2.3.8.jar in WEB-INF/lib.
providing modified code below:

fruits.put("mangoes", "ma");
return fruits;
}

Follwing is the solution using jquery plugin instead of dojo plugin.
(Replaced dojo plugin with struts2-jquery-plugin-3.6.0.jar in WEB-INF/lib
in Eclipse.)

in FruitsAction.java, the string 'term' is what we type into the autocompleter.
the action gets invoked everytime we type in a new letter.

I am trying to write small login application in struts 2.Session is b eing created successfully.In welcome.jsp "logout" option is given.On logout control will be redirected to Logout.jsp.
My problem is after logout session variables are destroyed but pages are storing in browser cache.If click back button of browser i am able to see welcome.jsp.
For clearing cache "ClearCacheInterceptor" is used.I don't understand where i am making mistake.
Instead of clearing browser every time is there any to overcome this prooblem ? Is my approach correct ? Please suggest me.

Well that's a very common issue and this is with respect to your browser cache issue rather than struts2 or any other framework at all.
we have face same problem since when you hit the back button of browser the request is not being send to the server rather it is being serves from the browser cache.you will only notice things when you try to do some work and it will come up with error that you are no longer being logged in.
though you can use certain header like no-cache etc but they are being obeyed by the browser is not certain.
only workaround to this problem as per my understanding is to use https (secure browsing) for your work and than use the header (no-cache. cache-expiry etc) since when you browse application under secure mode these header will be followed by the server and browser.
i hope this will try to give you an idea, just to check redirect to https protocol when your logout and it will solve your problem
Hello Im doing the convention plugin for struts2.2.1, examples with netbeans6.9
and it seems like something is wrong. I even copy/paste everything and nothing. rightnow I get :
"The error message is ${message} "
when it should be
"The error message is Hello World"
i could not post the structure, but I put the jsp under the WEB-INF following the tutorial
but nothing
web.xml
<web-app>
<display-name>My Application</display-name>
<filter>
<filter-name>struts2</filter-name>
<filter-class>org.apache.struts2.dispatcher.FilterDispatcher</filter-class>
</filter>
<filter-mapping>
<filter-name>struts2</filter-name>
<url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>
<session-config>
<session-timeout>
30
</session-timeout>
</session-config>
<welcome-file-list>
<welcome-file>hello-world.jsp</welcome-file>
</welcome-file-list>
myaction:
package com.example.actions;
import com.opensymphony.xwork2.ActionSupport;
public class HelloWorld extends ActionSupport {
private String message;
public String getMessage() {
return message;
}
public String execute() {
if (System.currentTimeMillis() % 2 == 0) {
message = "It's 0";
return "zero";
}
message = "It's 1";
return SUCCESS;
}
}
hello-world.jsp
<html>
<body>
The Error message is ${message}
</body>
</html>
I don´t think I need a strut.xml file. I´m really getting frustrated here
would really appreciate any help or can´t you do annotations with struts2.2.1 ?
The way you have your welcome-file in web.xml it would only display "The Error message is".
You need to go straight to the action, so that you get an initial value. You need an additional index.html like this one:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<title>Dummy Project</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" CONTENT="0;URL=hello.action">
</head>
<body>
<p>Project is Loading ...</p>
</body>
</html>
Index.html should be your welcome-file in your web.xml. Your struts.xml is here:
<struts>
<constant name="struts.devMode" value="true"/>
<include file="struts-default.xml"/>
<package name="foo" extends="struts-default">
<action name="hello" class="com.example.action.HelloWorld">
<result name="success">/hello-world.jsp</result>
</action>
</package>
</struts>
"hello" is your action. Only a "success" result is necessary here. After the action runs, you will be redirected to your hello-world.jsp:
<%#page contentType="text/html" pageEncoding="UTF-8"%>
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<%#taglib uri="/struts-tags" prefix="s" %>
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
<title>JSP Page</title>
</head>
<body>
The Error message is ${message}
</body>
</html>
Here is your HelloWorld.java. Execute() returns only SUCCESS. This should be sufficient.
package com.example.action;
import com.opensymphony.xwork2.ActionSupport;
public class HelloWorld extends ActionSupport {
private String message;
public String getMessage() {
return message;
}
public void setMessage(String message) {
this.message = message;
}
public HelloWorld() {
}
#Override
public String execute() {
if (System.currentTimeMillis() % 2 == 0)
message = "It's 0";
else
message = "It's 1";
return SUCCESS;
}
}
You can certainly do the same with annotations. It should be easy to make this work.
I use this NetBeans Struts2 Support plugin. Enjoy...
