    Description

      During a recent struts upgrade that we did for security purposes we started receiving large amounts of error logging when a visitor uses a URL that doesn't have an associated action mapping (like a 404). This happens when debug mode is disabled.

      I believe the problem started when this JIRA ticket was 'fixed':
      https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WW-3609

      I think the two commits giving us grief are:
      http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=revision&revision=1396976
      http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=revision&revision=1397027

      The error I'm receiving is:

      ERROR org.apache.struts2.dispatcher.Dispatcher  - Exception occurred during processing request: There is no Action mapped for namespace [/package] and action name [missingactionname] associated with context path [/app].
      There is no Action mapped for namespace [/package] and action name [missingactionname] associated with context path [/app]. - [unknown location]

      For the moment we've simply set the log level for the effected class to none to get around this but I don't think this is the optimal solution.
