I18n redirection issue in struts2 web application

Question

In my application Locale is dynamically selected by user from login page and I am saving selected locale in Cookie.

I am facing I18n related problem in case of redirection in my web application.

When I redirect a page by URL by appending current locale then my application language remains same as selected language(i.e working fine in this case), but when I redirect to next page by struts redirection defined in struts.xml file the locale changes to the default value(English in my case).

For example:

In case of- <result name="success" type="redirect"> , locale changes to default one.

In case I remove type=redirect then its working fine but my form will be submitted two times.

So is there any way to append locale to struts redirection at runtime?

Here is one of my interceptor stack:

<interceptor-stack name="sessionValidateStack">
    <interceptor-ref name="auditTrail"></interceptor-ref>
    <interceptor-ref name="sessionCheck"></interceptor-ref>
    <interceptor-ref name="service">
        <param name="code">DG</param>
        <param name="interfaceType">WEB</param>
    </interceptor-ref>
    <interceptor-ref name="defaultStack"></interceptor-ref>
    <interceptor-ref name="expHandler"></interceptor-ref>
</interceptor-stack>

Are you using modified interceptor stack? Have you tried with `redirectAction` result type? — Aleksandr M, May 13 '15 at 10:36
Yes! I am using modified interceptor stack and I haven't used redirectAction result type. — DpkTheJavaCoder, May 13 '15 at 10:57
Show you interceptor stack. Also try with `redirectAction` result type, because you should use it instead of `redirect` to redirect to some action. — Aleksandr M, May 13 '15 at 11:18
I have added the stack in the question. I'll also try with type="redirectAction" — DpkTheJavaCoder, May 13 '15 at 11:25
By default S2 i18n interceptor stores locale in session, and since your have some `sessionCheck` interceptor you are probably removing it from session with your code. — Aleksandr M, May 13 '15 at 11:33
In my code I am not removing anything in sessionCheck interceptor. Is there any way to check or set the locale if removed? — DpkTheJavaCoder, May 13 '15 at 11:53
Put a breakpoint into `I18nInterceptor` debug and see what happens on redirect. — Aleksandr M, May 13 '15 at 12:00

I have already added request_locale in the parameter but on result type=redirect the locale is reset i.e. changes to default value. – DpkTheJavaCoder May 13 '15 at 11:18
keep request_locale as variable in action keep getter and setter and set the value and try – Avinash Perla May 14 '15 at 05:56

Use redirect-action instead of redirect in action result type because in case of redirect action,control jumps to the different action(in same or other package).

Please refer link for the difference between redirect and redirect type result type.
