Tiles2 Problem

I ran into a little problem wit tiles2.
The error I get is:
SEVERE: Servlet.service() for servlet dispatcher threw exception
java.io.IOException: No request dispatcher returned for path 'null'

Here is my config:

Dispatcher-servlet.xml:

Code:

---

    <bean id="urlMapping" class="org.springframework.web.servlet.handler.SimpleUrlHandlerMapping">
        <property name="mappings">
            <props>
                <prop key="/index.htm">indexController</prop>
                <prop key="/admin/addLink.htm">addLinkController</prop>
            </props>
        </property>
    </bean>

    <bean id="viewResolver" class="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.UrlBasedViewResolver">
        <property name="viewClass" value="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.tiles2.TilesView"/>
    </bean>
    <!--
        Tiles configurer
    -->
    <bean id="tilesConfigurer" class="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.tiles2.TilesConfigurer">
      <property name="definitions">
        <list>
          <value>/WEB-INF/tiles-config.xml</value>
        </list>
      </property>
    </bean>

tiles-config.xml

Code:

---

    <!-- Administration template -->
    <definition name="adminTemplate" page="/WEB-INF/jsp/admin/template.jsp">
        <put name="header" content="/WEB-INF/jsp/admin/header.jsp"></put>
        <put name="content" content="dummyContentPage.jsp"></put>
    </definition>
    <!-- Standard template -->
    <definition name="template">
        <!-- todo -->
    </definition>
   
    <!--
    WEB PAGES
    -->
    <definition name="index" extends="template">
        <put name="content" value="/WEB-INF/jsp/index.jsp" />
    </definition>
    <!--
    ADMIN PAGES
    -->
    <definition name="admin/addLink" extends="adminTemplate">
        <put name="content" value="/WEB-INF/jsp/admin/addLink.jsp"/>
    </definition>

Problem with struts2 which in spring 2.x.

---

<bean id="tilesConfigurer" class="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.tiles.TilesConfigurer">
        <property name="definitions">
            <list>
                <value>/WEB-INF/tiles-defs.xml</value>
            </list>
        </property>
    </bean>
    <bean id="viewResolver" class="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.UrlBasedViewResolver">
        <property name="viewClass" value="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.tiles.TilesView"/>
    </bean>

replace usage of org.springframework.web.servlet.view.tiles2 with tiles. That's all.
Maybe in tiles2 some another working mechanism ...:D

If you upgraded from tiles 1.x the error can be traced to the tiles definitions xml.

try upgrading to

Code:

---

<!DOCTYPE tiles-definitions PUBLIC
      "-//Apache Software Foundation//DTD Tiles Configuration 2.0//EN"
      "http://tiles.apache.org/dtds/tiles-config_2_0.dtd">

---

Adapt the definitions file and your jsps to reflect tiles2!
