Jsp files in struts

Hi,
Is it possible to place the jsp files inside WEB-INF folder in a web
environment ?
I am using Tomcat.
Thanks,
Aarthy

You can put anything anywhere. Which is to say, you can put whatever you want in the WEB-INF directory. Except that this directory is not public and is not accessible via the clients ( read browsers ) so all you content in this folder is effectively invisible to the user. Which is a good thing since you don't people to access your web.xml or your classes and see what you're doing, do you? Also, you could put other files, like your PDFs, reports etc which you would like to serve up to users via a servlet but don't want them to have a direct link to.
So continuing along this line, you could put your JSPs in this folder, but no one will be able to access it. It will never run. So it doesn't make any sense.
Why do you want to put them there anyway?

Can we keep one action file for all jsp files in struts?"

I have 5-6 Jsp pages and all are inter connected.
If any one make changes, these changes should be display in the database.
In this case, I need only one Action class which can hold or manipulate all changes from all jsp pages. I am not sure "Can we keep one action file for all jsp files?"
If yes, then how can we configure struts-config.xml file.
If no, then pls suggest me any altenative solution.

hai
go for DispatchAction class and then pass as parameters
refer struts complete reference...
it will solve ur problems..

How to include .js file in jsp file?

hi,
i have a jsp file with struts tag. right now i have all the javascript code as a separate function inside the jsp file itself. i want the javascript code to be present in a .js file and i want to refer that .js file from the jsp file with struts tags.
<html:text property="Phone" value="" size="3" maxlength="3"
onkeyup="return autoTab(this, 3, event);"></html:text>
the above is the html tag which will call the function "autoTab" of the .js file. please help.
thanks,
Jayanth.

You include javascript into a jsp in exactly the same way you do with html
<script src="myJavascriptFile.js"/>
It has nothing to do with the jsp per se, but rather the generated HTML page.

Object Expected error in Struts JSP file

Hi,
I have a very simple JSP file as shown below.
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<%@ taglib uri="/tags/struts-html" prefix="html" %>
<html>
<head>
<title>pqGlobalStoreProfile.jsp</title>
</head>
<body onLoad="getSessionData();disableFieldsLocale();">
<html:form action="/pqGlobalStoreProfile.do">
<table cellpadding=5 cellspacing=0>
<tr><td colspan=2><h3><b>Pq Global Store/Modify Profile</b></h3></td></tr>
<tr><td>Profile Key *</td><td><html:text property="profileKey"/></td></tr>
</table>
</html:form>
</body>
</html>
It is throwing an "Object Expected' error at Line 9 Char 1.
I am not sure about what is causing this error.
Thanks.

it's a Javascript error, cuz it's calling these 2 methods when the page loads...
onLoad="getSessionData();disableFieldsLocale();"
Where are these methods defined? Cuz I don't see any inline Javascript, nor a linked script.
I hope you don't think that those onload functions are going to call Java code defined in the JSP page or something, cuz... well, they aren't.

How to run a jsp file written in a struts framework using tomcat5.0 server

hi,
plz somebody help me.
how do i run a jsp file which i've written in struts framework .
and anybody plz tell me the process from installing a tomcat server to setting its path such that my jsp page runs....

hi,
this is zoya,I gathered from the name that appears in the post header already. :^)
an engineering student,and i require
help.
plz somebody specify the whole process from
installing tomcat and how to set its path so that i
can run a jsp page written in struts using tomcatThere are dozens of tutorials on this. First, you need to get Tomcat running without Struts. There are HOW-TO's, sample apps, the whole shebang over at Jakarta's site. Start there. If you get stuck, there are also tutorials on Servlets (and probably Tomcat in specific) on the Net. Do a Google search.
Next, download Struts. There is, again, extensive HOW-TO and tutorials on their site as well.
No one will do your work for you. Make an attempt, then post when you are stuck.

Relative Path for JSP Files

I use Liferay Portal. It has a defined directory structure for all portlets and expects files to be in their proper locations. One of these is that it expects all .jsp files to be in the /webroot/html directory.
The problem is that all references in the struts-config.xml to .jsp files are assumed to be relative to the /html directory. So if, for instance, I set the path as /test/test.jsp then Liferay looks for the file in /html/test/test.jsp. But NitroX requires the full path, including the /html.
I've gotten this to work on another competing product - in that product I set the Web Root to be the /html directory and it works great. That product allows you to set the path of the struts-config.xml separately. Is there any way to do something similar with NitroX? I tried changing the webroot in the .m7project file manually but it doesn't like it. It seems to insist that the struts-config.xml file is in the webroot.
Thanks.

NitroX currently supports only a war directory structure. When a project is created, the Web Application Root directory is computed as the directory containing the WEB-INF folder (which should contain the web.xml file).
All web app resources (JSP files, image, css files, etc) are expected to be under the Web Application Root directory (at any nested directory level).
We will enhance this behavior in the future to support arbitrary directory structures.

Unable to load the '.jsp' file

Hi all,
          We use Weblogic 8.1 sp3 and are devloping a struts based application.
          I have deployed my 'ear' file (containing a '.war' and a '.jar' file). We use struts. Our '.war' file, contains the pre-compiled 'jsp' classes (we have changed our web.xml to indicate that we are using pre-compiled jsps. I can show my web.xml file if you need).
          When I click on my 'submit' button, I see that my action class has been invoked and it's spitting out messages to the stdout. Everything looks fine. But, when it is trying to load the '.jsp', I get the following error.

          I have looked in the '.war' file and it contains the above mentioned precompiled class (_link).
          Could anyone point me in the right direction??

Hi,
          Could you check that whether the jsp file is placed in right place or not ?

You have far to much code posted and without the use of the correct code tags its almost unreadable.
You have a question about uplaoding files with Struts then get rid of all the junk in your code thats not related to uploading files.
If you have an error then post the relevant information on the error
like
org.apache.commons.beanutils.ConversionException:
Cannot assign value of type 'org.apache.struts.upload.CommonsMultipartRequestHandler$CommonsFormFile' to property 'file' of type 'java.lang.String'
org.apache.struts.action.DynaActionForm.set(DynaActionForm.java:424)If you had posted only that you would have given enough information, that error says it all you are trying to put your file into a String and its not working.
reread the tutorial/documentation provided and try again

Questions regarding jsp file download from blob

Hi developers, i'm doing jsp file download from a blob column in DB2 using struts,
1) How do i design the jsp page such that the page will show perhaps a hyperlink for me to download the file?
2) What about struts-config.xml? Do i need to modify any mappings there?
It would be great if some kind developers were to provide some sample codes for me. Thanks alot. Your effort is kindly appreciated.

http://kr.forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=1982213 - looks similar, you may need to change contentType as per use case

I think we have a case here of trying to use the Struts1.2 tag libraries in Struts2.0
The tag libraries are quite different :-)
I believe the <s:textfield> tag is probably what was intended here?
Or install struts 1.2 instead of struts2 :-)

Image displays in some jsp files but not others

OK, I have a jsf jsp pages js tag for my application that occurs in several jsp pages:
<tr>
   <td>
      <jsp:include page="/includes/footer.jsp"/>
   </td>
</tr>     footer.jsp has an image tag like this:
<td align="left"><img src="images/logo.jpg" alt="X Systems"/></td>     The jsp files are in a directory which is under the base directory like the include and image files. For some reason, in one jsp page the logo.jpg file does not get displayed. As I understand it, the application server jboss/tomcat resolves the image files. Why would it be displayed it in one page and not another?

You are using a relative link to access your image.
That means it will look for your image relative to the page it last served.
If you ask for http://myapp/root.jsp, it will locate http://myapp/images/logo.jsp
If you ask for http://myapp/module/index.jsp it will locate http://myapp/module/images/logo.jsp
If you right click on your image / broken image placeholder and look at its properties, you should be able to see the url which it is trying to fetch the image from.
The client will resolve relative links from the address url it last accessed. It knows nothing of any serverside forwards/includes that you might have done.
So if you access http://myapp/action and forward to /moduel/accounting/balanceSheet.jsp it will still treat the url as http://myapp/action for resolving relative links.
As far as the client is concerned, the root is /
As far as your web application is concerned, the root is /myapp (or whatever your context name is)
Because of this you can't give your images an static absolute url, because you would be hardcoding the context name into your jsp.
Alternatives
- use something like <img src="<%= request.getContextName() %>/images/logo.jsp"/>
- use a tag library to hide the implementation of option #1 (like struts tag html:img)
- only use relative links, and always specify a html <base> on your page to resolve relative links from.
Hope this helps,

1.
Multiple tlds in web.xml
Have multiple taglib elements in your web.xml - see below.
<jsp-config>
<taglib>
     <taglib-uri>http://example/taglib</taglib-uri>
     <taglib-location>/WEB-INF/example.tld</taglib-location>
</taglib>
   <taglib>
      <taglib-uri>http://anotherexample/taglib</taglib-uri>
       <taglib-location>/WEB-INF/anotherexample.tld</taglib-location>
   </taglib>
</jsp-config>The jsp-config element should be just after the servlet-mapping element in servlet 2.3 spec.
For 2.4 spec, you can put it anywhere.
In your jsp, to use the tags from the two tag libraries, use 2 taglib directives
<%@ taglib prefix="example" uri="http://example/taglib" %>
<%@ taglib prefix="anotherexample" uri="http://anotherexample/taglib" %>
<example:tag1.................>
<anotherexample:tag2.................> etc2.
Mutliple tags per tld
Have multiple <tag> elements in your tld.

Interesting snippet
If you are using a 3rd party tag library, then the tags would come packaged in a jar file. The MTEA-INF directory of the jar file would contain the tlds and the tld would have an uri element. You can use it directly in the jsp without declaring the tld file in web.xml provided the jar file is in your classpath.
For example, take the struts tag libraries, say the logic tags.
The struts.jar contains, among other things, the tag class files and the tld files (inside /META-INF/tlds)
All you have to do is put Struts.jar in the classpath (easy way to do this is put it in the WEB-INF/lib directory of your web-application).
The jar file has struts-logic-1.1.tld in the META-INF/tlds directory.
This tld file looks like this
<taglib>
<tlibversion>1.2</tlibversion>
<jspversion>1.1</jspversion>
<shortname>logic</shortname>
<uri>http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/tags-logic</uri>
..................Now to use the tags in your jsp, you dont require the tld mappings in web.xml using the uri above in the taglib directive in your jsp
<%@ taglib prefix="example" uri="http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/tags-logic" %> cool, right ? :)
This is how you should pkg your own tags too. The tag classes have to be jarred and the tlds should go into the META-INF of the jar so that other users can simply add the jar to the cp and start using your tags.
cheers,
ram.

Problem compiling jsp file

I am using ant to precompile my jsp files which contains struts taglibs but it is giving an error
[jasperc] error:org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Error compiling \attendance\AllPendingAuthentication.jsp
[jasperc] at org.apache.jasper.JspC.processFile(JspC.java:543)
[jasperc] at org.apache.jasper.JspC.execute(JspC.java:748)
[jasperc] at org.apache.jasper.JspC.main(JspC.java:770)
what i need to do to come out of this??

You can load the JSP in the browser and add a jsp_precompile parameter, something like:
http://yourwebsite.com/yourwebpage.jsp?jsp_precompile
Any mistakes will end up being displayed in the browser, but the JSP will never get executed should it contain no programming mistakes.

Yes, you could try using the multipart handler...
But I have a better idea...
Determine the maximum number of file uploads that the
user can do at one time. I mean, you can't
realistically have the user upload a million files at
one time. So say the max is 20. So you create your
action form class with 20 FormFile fields called file1
to file20.
Then when you dynamically create your page, you
dynamically create the specified number of file fields
and 1 hidden field called "totalFiles" which contains
the number of file fields you created. This should be
an int field in the form bean.
Then when you do your action processing, you just loop
thru the totalFiles... Or well, actually, you may not
need that at all. You could just check all the
FormFile fields and whatever ones aren't null contain
files.But what about UploadActionForm.java[b]
How do i have exact mapping of the HTML form in this file ??

Parsing of JSP file

Parsing of JSP File '/main.jsp' failed:
/main.jsp(1): Could not parse deployment descriptor: java.io.IOException: cannot resolve 'http://java.sun.com/jstl/core' into a valid tag library

I got this error when i deployed my application through weblogic...
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jstl/core" prefix="c" %>
I think its because of this line..can someone help me..its urgent

          Ok, we can tell that the JSP compiler was able to read and parse the TLD file, because it refers to a class name specified in the TLD. That's a good sign. However, after it found the class name, it wasn't able to find the actual class file. You'll need to ensure that the "struts.jar" file is in your "WEB-INF/lib" directory of the application.
          If you already have that, or it still doesn't work when you redeploy it with this, then it's possible there is a conflict with another "struts.jar" in the web application classloader context. If that other "struts.jar" is not controlled by you, but is instead controlled by WebLogic, then you may have to specify the "<prefer-web-inf-classes>" element (to specify a "true" value), which will make the web application classloader prefer classes and jars in your WEB-INF directory over classes found elsewhere.
