I can't figure out the error. No error is being displayed in My EclipseIDE..

[lifeisgreat20009]

What might be the possible cause ?
I have created a website using struts framework, jsp
In my transaction page the money is not getting transferred..
When I hit the submit button in my Transaction.jsp page , no transaction happens ..
Only the url changes from

http://localhost:8080/bankfinalproje...ransaction.jsp

to this

http://localhost:8080/bankfinalproject/transaction.do

Below are my files

struts-config.xml

Why is nothing happening ????????

[r035198x]

That's a terribly huge amount of code.
Better first check to see if your action is getting called at all.
Put some output statements in your action and check to see if the action is called at all.

[NitinSawant]

Better you compress the project into zip and upload here..
@lifeisgreat20009

[NitinSawant]

Check action attribute of the form...

"action='/transaction'"

it is wrong,

you should use "action='transaction'"

[lifeisgreat20009]

I changed that attribute into "action='transaction'"
but its still not working.

I did put output statement in the TransactionAction.java file

Nothing is being displayed on the console which means this action class is not being called..
why so ?

[lifeisgreat20009]

I just did some research and found this

http://www.junlu.com/msg/196517.html

Is my problem related to this ??

My validations on transaction page are working fine..
So what else could be the problem ??
Action class is just not being called, no updation in database are happening

[JosAH]

Your (beginner's) mistake is that you started typing like hell and when you finally finished you attempted to run it; it didn't work of course and then you threw your hands up in the air in pure despair and posted all that wallpaper in this group.

What you should've done is take baby steps, i.e. write a bit of code, compile it, run it and test if it runs how you want it to run. Then write a bit more and repeat the cycle. If at some iteration stuff doesn't work anymore you can perfectly precise show us what is wrong and what you expect it to do.

It's too late now because you're still sitting there with your hands up in the air in despair, waiting for the magic bullet to be posted here. That is not the way software development goes. You (at least) have to actively try to find the bug, not reply "I did what you suggested but it didn't work; help! It's urgent!".

Use Descartes' "reductionism", i.e. reduce your problem until you've found the part that is not working and leave out the rest. Nobody is interested in your wallpaper and nobody wants to go through it all; it is your work. Some output is not produced; why not? Something isn't called; try to figure out why not; maybe you have to write some throw-away test code that simulates what you actually want to accomplish. But most important of it all: think.

kind regards,

By the way, Jos is one of the nicest on byte, and I agree, that's the nicest he could have put it.

Did you "learn" something from this thread though? Did you learn about the acyclic life cycle of coding and the all important troubleshooting skills.

Print statements are your best friend. Every programmer should know how the code is executed, put a print() statement at every step like breadcrumbs, it will always lead you to your problem.

Don't Give Up,
