This is not necessarily true. Simple go into your web.config and change the *.do to /*

I have been unable to see the http://img694.imageshack.us/i/mestruts2supposed2.jpg

instead I ended up with:
http://img222.imageshack.us/i/mestrutsprojectjars.jpg

I also had an issue with the J2EE level which supposedly must be 5.0 when
my compiler compliance level was set at 1.6 or SE 6.0

Any ideas what went wrong? There wasn’t even a struts2*.jar let alone
the
olgn*.jar ” alt=””>

rss245b,

Can you please answer some questions for me to understand the issue better and replicate it at my end?

1) Copy paste your installation details here from MyEclipse > Installation Summary > Installation Details.

2) Can you give me detailed steps on how you are creating the project? If you are following a tutorial, please share the link with me.

3) In the Add Struts capabilities wizard are you choosing Struts 1.2 or Struts 1.3 ?

4) The compliance level window is just a warning. You can hit yes to update the custom settings.
Here is a thread which discusses the compliance levels which might help you :
http://www.myeclipseide.com/PNphpBB2-printview-t-24116-start-0.html

5) Are you encountering any errors while running your struts project? If yes what are they? Please paste them here for me.

Step #2:
I have been using a .war example which appears to work fine on my Tomcat 6.0 server
(comment)This message area is awful by the way – It does not even scroll properly when I type
I got it from 2010 copyright book: Struts2 in action by Manning publishers and while the war file works fine on the server it failed towork in MyEclipse as a developmen environment
I will send you a copy of the working .war file so you can understand my problem
Ideally I could just import the war file and a wizard would build my project environment bu this does not appear to work either so

I tried to build the project after placing the proper .jar files in the Webroot according to the .war file
I am sending you a separate .war file which I have tested successfully on a Tomcat 6.0 server by jar xvf it into a mystruts2 wabapp folder via
jar xvf *.war

the war file does everything expected except I can not find any menu.action file. i wish I knew why
how does a URL ernd Menu.action and there is no file Menu.action???
Perhaps my struggle can help others

[Rob Silver]

Step #3:
As I told you in the two image links:
I will send you an email with the screen shots until I better understand how to imbed images in your forums
Suffice it to say I followed the tutorial and selected radio box o-Struts 1.3 being the latest option in radio boxes
then down at the bottom I clicked on the hyper link to view libraries
off to the left was an option for for Project Capabilities as: Struts 2 and I selected that
At the botom. The right screen portion of the Preference(Filtered) window showed Struts 2.1.8, Library Modules: Struts 2 Core Libraries
and a list of appropriate .jar files showed below.
After clicking on APPLY and OK buttons I got the project screen shots I included in my initial posting

All seemed to go properly at this point I saw the .jar files I expected and then bam:
I failed to see them in the project
I will be sending you the exact sequence in image form to aid your understanding of what is happening here

Step #4:
I looked at the URL, but why would a modern Struts 2 Framework be based on Compliance 1.4? how does that effect the project wizard
more importantly if at all. Why 1.4? or is that because Struts 1.x required 1.4 compliance and anything higher does not work and
Struts x wizard is the only one we have to work with currently. It is a limitation though but is there a way not to have that limitation in the future?

Step #5 From within the IDE: I have the following error when I try to run it
Note the real problem is that there is no easy way to create Projects with the proper set of libraries with the wizard
as I have to hand copy .jar files in. By the way is there another way to place .jar files into the …/WebRoot/WEB-INF/lib folder??
Note the whole reason I am contacting you regarding this sample is I have no basis of developing Struts 2 Framework in MyEclipse Pro IDE
currently. I realize I may have a file out of place but the biggest issue here is how a Struts 2 project is created by the wizard
Where are those libraries I saw e.g struts2*.jar and ognl*.jar files. Again for clearity see my email with screenshots. Feel free to paste them or create a webinar etc.. from them

Remember I copied in the Struts 2 libraries by hand to the …/WebRoot/WEB-INF/lib folder
when I run:
http://192.168.1.125:8080/Struts2HelloWorld/index.html

HTTP Status 404 – /Struts2HelloWorld/Menu.action

——————————————————————————–

type Status report

message /Struts2HelloWorld/Menu.action

description The requested resource (/Struts2HelloWorld/Menu.action) is not available.

——————
Again the .war files runs fine on an outside Tomcat 6.0 server
It does everything the book says it should
Displays: its loading please wait if there is a wait
shows a menu with HelloWorld link
Shows a form asking for a Name
Displays Hello <Name value>

rss245b,

I have attached the latest MyEclipse Struts 2 tutorial for your reference. It explains everything from creating a Struts 2 Project in MyEclipse, the project structure, the different wizards that are supported and XML/Graphical editors that are supported. This should help you get started with the MyEclipse Struts 2 tooling support.

Secondly, in the HelloWorld sample that you have (downloaded from http://www.manning.com/dbrown/) , the “Menu” action is a default action defined under the root (/) namespace. Please have a look at the “ActionSupport Default” section here – http://struts.apache.org/2.0.14/docs/action-configuration.html.

The tutorial is present under – MyEclipse Struts2 tutorial/quickstarts/struts2 folder.

Hope this helps. Let us know if you need any further support.

I have made a lot of progress using the struts 2 sample Joy sent me/swana posted but
the default JSP template is not set properly so the .jsp files generated did not match at all. Note I tried both custom and default compiler levels and the default JSP template still did not match that shown in the tutorial

I presume it is set by editing a file although I do not know which one to edit
I should also point out I originally installed 5.5.1 version of MyEcplipse version
add/remove programs in windows 7 shows no 8.5 or 8.6 version although it clearly installed. I am thinking about re-installing maybe on a linux system to see if that does anything.

Anyone have similar Default JSP template issues?

[support-swapna]

rss245b,

The JSP templates in the tutorial are edited.The extra information that gets generated as part of the JSP file, which we don’t need in our tutorial has been removed.

You can choose any one method to install ME :

1) Here are the steps to reinstalling using Pulse :
https://beta.myeclipseide.com/index.php?name=PNphpBB2&file=viewtopic&t=25976

2) Here are the steps to install using the All-In-One installer :
https://www.genuitec.com/forums/topic/installation-how-do-i-perform-a-clean-myeclipse-install/

Let me know how this works for you.

[Rob Silver]

Swapna,
Thank you very much for your answers to my questions. I still have more questions:

Shouldn’t the default JSP file look more like he target file in the MyBlogStruts2Example sample? at least the first few lines perhaps??

Also Is there a way to put in my own JSP templates?
If so how would I do that exactly?

[support-neeraj]

rss245b,
It is not necessary that the default JSP file should look like the one in the MyBlogStruts2Example. You can use the sample project as a reference to write your application and make changes to the files according to your needs.
At present you cannot add your customized templates. However, you can always use the default JSP templates as a starting point and edit them based on your needs.
