Subject: Re: [ANN] Struts 2.3.15.2 GA release available - security fix

Good morning,

Upgraded from 2.3.15.1 to 15.2, but "s:submit" problem:


(1) jsp:
<s:form
    name    = "loginForm"
    namespace= "/Login"
    action   = "ProcessLoginAction"
    method   = "post"
    theme="simple"
 >

<s:submit value="Login"
           theme="simple"
           action="loginProcessLoginAction" />   --- never call 
loginProcessLoginAction



(2) struts.xml
<package name="Login" namespace="/Login" extends="tiles-default">
<action name="*ProcessLoginAction"  method="{1}" class="ProcessLoginAction">
   <result name="success"   type="tiles">main_menu</result>
   <result name="ajax_check" >
   /WEB-INF/pages/errorinfo/ajax_error_check.jsp
   </result>
</action>


(3) ProcessLoginAction.java
    public String login() throws Exception
    {
       try
       {
         ......
       }catch(Exception e)
       {
          log.error("login Error: " + e.getMessage());
          log.error(e);
          this.addActionError("login Error: " + e.getMessage());
       }
       return "success";
    }


The problem is that "loginProcessLoginAction in jsp page" is never be 
called.

Could you help?
Thanks,
Emi
