Hello everyone,

I have a basic project and want to use Tiles. The idea is to use one main template for multiple pages.
I don't want to add multiple definitions so I'm trying to use wildcards.
Below are my files where I have Tiles configured.
When I have the configuration files of Tiles without wildcards it works well, as soon as I use wildcards it fails.
All configuration files and error messages are show below.

And yes the files are in the right place



Code:

    <definition name="home" extends="base.definition">
        <put-attribute name="body" value="/WEB-INF/views/home.jsp" />
    </definition>
 
</tiles-definitions>
This works!


Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<!DOCTYPE tiles-definitions PUBLIC
       "-//Apache Software Foundation//DTD Tiles Configuration 2.0//EN"
       "http://tiles.apache.org/dtds/tiles-config_2_0.dtd">
<tiles-definitions>
    <definition name="base.definition"
        template="/WEB-INF/views/layouts/standard.jsp">
        <put-attribute name="title" value="Application Title" />
        <put-attribute name="header" value="/WEB-INF/views/header.jsp" />
        <put-attribute name="body" value="" />
    </definition>
 
    <definition name="**" extends="base.definition">
        <put-attribute name="body" value="/WEB-INF/views/{1}.jsp" />
    </definition>
 
</tiles-definitions>
If I configure this way the application shows the following error message:
org.apache.tiles.util.TilesIOException: JSPException including path '/WEB-INF/views/layouts/standard.jsp'.
