Hi,
I was a simple struts application and deploying the same on JBoss. On running the application, it crashes on an action forward with the following Exception.

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Path failure does not start with a "/" character

My Action Mapping is as below

<action input="Login.jsp" name="LoginForm"
path="/loginAction"
type="com.infosys.struts.action.LoginAction" validate="false">
<forward name="failure" path="/error.jsp" />
<forward name="success" path="/index.jsp" />
</action>

Could someone please tell me where the error is. The 3 JSPs are in the same base directory.

TIA
Nik

Hi Nik,

it should be 'input="/Login.jsp"' to let the action know, where to start with a relative path.

Cheers,
Kristian

Qualify the path with '/' in Login.jsp and try
