Issue
I followed this post and created a custom URL application. The action is getting called but the url shows with session id like
http://localhost:8080/CustomURL%7Busername%7D.action;jsessionid=9C1FB3EB633209C18625BBB40EA61000
I want simply like http://localhost:8080/CustomURL/rajesh
See my struts.xml:
<struts>
<constant name="struts.mapper.alwaysSelectFullNamespace"
value="false" />
<constant name="struts.enable.SlashesInActionNames" value="true" />
<constant name="struts.patternMatcher" value="namedVariable" />
<package name="default" namespace="/" extends="struts-default">
<action name="">
<result name="success">home.jsp</result>
</action>
<action name="{username}" class="com.rajesh.struts2.CustomURL"
method="customUrl">
<result name="success">welcome.jsp</result>
</action>
</package>
See my JSP page:
<%@ taglib prefix="s" uri="/struts-tags"%>
<html>
<head>
<title>Struts 2 Custom URL</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Struts 2 Custom URL</h1>
<h3>Enter your name below</h3>
<s:form action="{username}">
<s:textfield name="username" />
<s:submit />
</s:form>
</body>
</html>
See java file below:
public class CustomURL extends ActionSupport {
private String username;
public String getUsername() {
System.out.println("Getter");
return username;
}
public void setUsername(String username) {
System.out.println("Setter");
this.username = username;
}
private static final long serialVersionUID = -4337790298641431230L;
public String customUrl() {
return SUCCESS;
}
}
Solution
First of all you should get rid of action extension, if you don't want user to think their name has an extension.
<constant name="struts.action.extension" value=",,action"/>
Next the pattern matcher should be regex.
<constant name="struts.patternMatcher" value="regex"/>
Action mapping
<action name="/CustomURL/{username}" class="com.rajesh.struts2.CustomURL" method="customUrl">
<result name="success">welcome.jsp</result>
</action>
In the JSP you don't need to use form tag, but anchor tag. And use known names.
<a href="http://localhost:8080/CustomURL/rajesh">Click my name</a>
