Following http://struts.apache.org/2.2.3/docs/wildcard-mappings.html, below configurations work
Wildcard works
<action name="/drill/*" class="example.DrillAction" method="{1}">
<result name="success" type="freemarker">/drill-{1}.ftl</result>
</action>
Regex works as well
<action name="/{group}/drill/index" class="example.DrillAction" method="index">
<result name="success" type="freemarker">/drill-index.ftl</result>
</action>
But I failed to mix wildcard and regex in the action config like below:
<action name="/{group}/drill/*" class="example.DrillAction" method="{1}">
<result name="success" type="freemarker">/drill-{1}.ftl</result>
</action>
When I access http-path-to-host/rs6k/drill/index, 404 error happens: There is no Action mapped for namespace [/] and action name [rs6k/drill/index] associated with context path [].
Can I mix regex and wildcard in struts.xml config?
Are you sure you have read all about wildcard-mappings?
<action name="/{group}/drill/{some}" class="example.DrillAction" method="{2}">
<result name="success" type="freemarker">/drill-{2}.ftl</result>
</action>
