<h1 id="weblogic">WebLogic</h1>
<p>When deploying to WebLogic, some developers report problems with the framework locating resources, especially with Velocity.
For more about WebLogic and Velocity, see the <a href="http://wiki.apache.org/jakarta-velocity/VelocityAndWeblogic">Velocity website</a>.</p>
<p>To deploy to WebLogic, the common approach is to create and deploy an unexpanded WAR to the WebLogic deployment directory.
With WL 8.x, the deployment directory is typically at <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">&lt;bea_home&gt;/user_projects/domains/mydomain/</code>.</p>
<h2 id="adding-a-struts-velocityproperties-configuration-file">Adding a struts-velocity.properties Configuration File</h2>
<p>In the <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">struts.properties</code> file (usually kept in the <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">WEB-INF/classes</code> directory), add an entry that specifies
a Velocity configuration file.</p>
<p><strong>struts.properties</strong></p>
<div class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge"><div class="highlight"><pre class="highlight"><code>struts.velocity.configfile = struts-velocity.properties
</code></pre></div></div>
<ul>
<li>Create the corresponding Velocity properties file (“struts-velocity.properties”), preferably in the same location
as the <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">struts.properties</code> file.</li>
<li>Copy into the Velocity properties file the contents of the <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">velocity.properties</code> file that is the the SAF <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">velocity-dep.jar</code>.</li>
<li>In your new <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">struts-velocity.properties</code> file, find he section titled <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">T E M P L A T E L O A D E R S</code>, and change this section as so:</li>
</ul>
<div class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge"><div class="highlight"><pre class="highlight"><code>
===========================================
resource.loader = class
file.resource.loader.description = Velocity File Resource Loader
file.resource.loader.class = org.apache.velocity.runtime.resource.loader.FileResourceLoader
file.resource.loader.path = .
file.resource.loader.cache = false
file.resource.loader.modificationCheckInterval = 2
class.resource.loader.class = org.apache.velocity.runtime.resource.loader.ClasspathResourceLoader
class.resource.loader.cache = true
===========================================
</code></pre></div></div>
<ul>
<li>Redeploy a fresh WAR to WebLogic.</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="npe-when-using-struts-2-jasper-reports-plugin">NPE when using Struts 2 Jasper Reports plugin</h2>
<p>When using mentioned plugin in Weblogic 11g you can get NullPointerException within Struts 2. To solve the problem you
must enable the “Archived Real Path” global property in Weblogic admin console &gt; configuration &gt; Web Applications.
It’s because JasperReportsResult determines the report directory base on servletContext.getRealPath(finalLocation).</p>
<h2 id="convention-based-application-doesnt-work">Convention based application doesn’t work</h2>
<p>When you deployed an application that base on the Convention Plugin and you get an error messages that says:</p>
<div class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge"><div class="highlight"><pre class="highlight"><code>There is no Action mapped for namespace / and action name xxxxxx
</code></pre></div></div>
<p>create struts.properties file in WEB-INF/classes folder (in the expanded application’s folder or in the source code) with below statements:</p>
<div class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge"><div class="highlight"><pre class="highlight"><code>#struts convention property modifications for Weblogic
struts.convention.action.includeJars=.*?/yourwebapp.*?jar(!/)?
struts.convention.action.fileProtocols=jar,zip
</code></pre></div></div>
<p>Thanks to Amit who the first published solution on his <a href="http://tech-architecture.blogspot.com/2009/02/getting-struts-21-to-work-in-weblogic\">blog</a>.</p>
