Description

My struts.xml is as follows..

<constant name="struts.devMode" value="true" />
    <constant name="struts.configuration.xml.reload" value="true"/>
    <constant name="struts.convention.exclude.parentClassLoader" value="true" />   
    <constant name="struts.convention.action.fileProtocols" value="jar,vfsfile,vfszip,vfs,zip" />
    <constant name="struts.convention.result.path" value="/WEB-INF/jsp/"/>
    <constant name="struts.i18n.reload" value="false" />
    <constant name="struts.locale" value="en_IN" />
    <constant name="struts.multipart.maxSize" value="10485760" />
    <constant name="struts.multipart.parser" value="jakarta"/>   
    <constant name="struts.convention.action.mapAllMatches" value="true" />
    <constant name="struts.convention.default.parent.package" value="egov" />
    <!-- Comma separated list of regular expressions of jar URLs to be scanned -->
    <constant name="struts.convention.action.includeJars" value=".*egov-.*" />
    <!-- Packages whose name ends with one of these strings will be scanned for actions -->
    <constant name="struts.convention.package.locators" value="actions"/>   
    <!--
        This makes the URL for an action like HelloWorldAction.java be /helloWorld.action rather than /hello-world
        By default Struts2 uses the SEOActionNameBuilder.
    -->
    <bean type="org.apache.struts2.convention.ActionNameBuilder" name="defaultActionNameBuilder" class="org.apache.struts2.convention.DefaultActionNameBuilder"/>
    <constant name="struts.convention.actionNameBuilder" value="defaultActionNameBuilder"/>
......

my action package structure is like org.x.y.web.actions.transactions
my jsp's are under WEB-INF/jsp/ transactions/

I'm getting the following error

ERROR [com.opensymphony.xwork2.interceptor.ExceptionMappingInterceptor] (http-localhost-127.0.0.1-9080-2) No result defined for action org.x.y.web.actions.transactions.FirstAction and result new: No result defined for actionorg.x.y.web.actions.transactions.FirstAction and result new

Its hitting FirstAction class method and returning string "new" (first-new.jsp)
My WEB-INF/jsp/ transactions/ folder has first-new.jsp.

I guess this may be a bug in conventional-plugin

i have commented out <constant name="struts.convention.package.locators" value="actions"/>
and tried it but it doesn't worked out.
Then i have changed my package name from transactions to trns.........
ie :
my action package structure is like org.x.y.web.actions.trns
my jsp's are under WEB-INF/jsp/ trns/
there it goes, its working perfectly .

i'm facing it when i use transactions as package name (Is it something to do with trans"actions").

even i guess this will be applicable for all package names starts or ends with "actions"
