Since the last post I have removed the secuirty filter and changed the permissions in the application-context.xml. But still I cannot access the reports directly. here is the error: org.springframework.webflow.NoMatchingTransitionException: No transition was matched on the event(s) signaled by the [1] action(s) that executed in this action state 'checkForParams' of flow 'viewReportFlow'; transitions must be defined to handle action result outcomes -- possible flow configuration error? Note: the eventIds signaled were: 'array['error']', while the supported set of transitional criteria for this action state is 'array[[eventId = 'yes'], [eventId = 'no']]' I do appreciate your help, thanks, Chuck
