If it works without theme set to ajax, it's probably a client-side
issue. What browser are you using? Are there any Javascript errors reported?

It looks like clearFieldErrors() was introduced in the (not yet
released) 2.1.x stream; there's no such method in 2.0.11.1.

> Should i put setFieldErrors(null); or extend another class ?

That might work. It might be safer to use getFieldErrors().clear() though.

Have you looked at the s:action tag? It sounds like that could solve at
least part of your problem. I'm still not clear how you expect two
actions designed in isolation to suddenly be able to work in tandem
without modification. As I say, you can't submit a request to more than
one action at once -- at least, not without creating a third action to
delegate to the other two...

Hello,

I've been spending the last couple months familiarizing myself with a few
java based web technologies, mainly Struts 2, Spring, and Hibernate. I have
a decent understanding of Struts, enough to make a few simple example
webapps that have helped me learn the concepts (along with a lot of help
from this message board!).

I'm now trying to design a "real" webapp that does more than one simple
task. The basic idea is that I want a single User database that contains
login and registration information (user name, password, name, address,
etc). When a user logs in, they are presented with a home page that shows
them all of the resources they are able to access (things like product
updates, product information, trial keys, etc).

Were I writing this webapp with what I know now, I would make a single
webapp that uses a database for user information, and a different database
that contains all of the information of the resources that the user is able
to access. Authentication and authorization would be handled using Acegi
(of which I have a very limited understanding of).

However, we also have other webapps that we would like to be able to access
the same user login information. One way (the only way I know of) would be
to have these other applications access the same user database and have all
of the same Acegi configuration. Each webapp would have all of the
configuration needed to allow users to login, manage their accounts, etc.
The vast majority of this configuration would be duplicated for each webapp.

It seems like a better way to handle this situation would be to have a
single "web service" that deals just with user login and registration. Then
any webapp that needs to have a user login would just redirect to this web
service and get back some sort of User object. Each individual webapp would
only need to configure Acegi for the specific resources that they provide.
So my above example would look up the user in a database and present user
specific resources. A webapp that allows a user to activate a product using
a product key would just have a database to map a user to the products they
have activated.

So finally my questions (sorry for the long winded explanation):

1. Is this login "web service" something that is actually commonly used?
2. Is this what a web service actually is, or am I applying that term where
it doesn't belong?
3. Is Acegi flexible enough to use in a setup like this?
4. Is there enough additional complexity in setting up a system like this
that it would also make sense to look into just duplicating the
configuration for each webapp?
5. Are there any good books, web tutorials, etc that talk about this?

I guess what I'm basically looking for is a little design direction,
possibly other technologies that provide these services so I'm not trying to
build an entire system from scratch.

Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

Hi,

> 1. Is this login "web service" something that is actually commonly used?

Yes and no, mainly because WS is session-less and you have to manage
the session token by your self. We use such approach internally,
through ssl and we manage session expirations by hand.

> 2. Is this what a web service actually is, or am I applying that term where

In my opinion, if you don't have global SOA architecture /
specification / whatever it can be what ever you want, but without
clear path it can be mess in the near future.

> 3. Is Acegi flexible enough to use in a setup like this?

I think yes, you can extend almost everything / re-implement all the
classes and customize them to do what you want.

> 4. Is there enough additional complexity in setting up a system like this

If you will have common template / approach / guideline there be
nothing more just to setup individual settings for each webapp. In
other case, you will all the time invite the wheel.

Google? IBM alfa works site ? ;-)

I thing you should start building your SOA strategy and how to fit it
to your current projects / structure. It's better to thing twice.

The 2.1.1 version of Struts uses FreeMarker 2.3.11  You may be able to
replace the 2.3.8 jar with the 2.3.11 jar without problems.

I doubt the problem is with FreeMarker. It's more likely to be the
FreeMarkerManager included with Struts 2 that's responsible for
searching for templates in the classpath.

Hi Márcio,

First, check that the sort and pagination links rendered in the HTML
appear valid. I have seen cases where the URL is corrupt because it
includes the original request parameters, resulting in the action being
invoked with an unexpected result.

They should look like:
http://foo.bar.com/context/requestUri?sort=name&dir=asc&originalParameters=originalValues.

The next issue is that displaytag uses default links that cause a
complete page reload. By "got lost", I presume you mean you clicked on
the sort link and the resulting page did not show the current tag. This
is a complication of using complex widgets in html. The only
work-around with displaytag is to ensure all state about the page layout
(such as which tab is visible) is available as a request param or read
from a cookie on a reload so that when the page is redrawn with the
correct tab and content displayed.

Finally, an approach to avoid that issue is use an ajax table widget.
That is, one that can refresh it's data without performing a full page
reload. The AjaxTags library includes a direct implementation of the
displaytag table (ajax:displaytag) [1]. I've never used it. As you're
using Dojo tabs you may like to consider Dojo's datagrid as well. I use
YUI's version.

[1] http://ajaxtags.sourceforge.net/usage.html

Hope that helps!

Jeromy Evans
