How to forward result to another action in Struts2?

I have this action:

package com.test;

import com.opensymphony.xwork2.Action;

public class TestAction implements Action{
    private String simpleParam;

    public String getSimpleParam() {
        return simpleParam;
    }

    public void setSimpleParam(String simpleParam) {
        this.simpleParam = simpleParam;
    }

    @Override
    public String execute() throws Exception {
        return SUCCESS;
    }
}

When it's executed I want to invoke another action inside struts(e.g. not redirect) and pass to it simpleParam. SecondAction is:

package com.test;

import com.opensymphony.xwork2.Action;

public class HelloAction implements Action {
    private String id;
    private String result;

    public String getId() {
        return id;
    }

    public void setId(String id) {
        this.id = id;
    }

    public String getResult() {
        return result;
    }

    @Override
    public String execute() throws Exception {
        result = "result" + getId();
        return SUCCESS;
    }
}

I saw working example when in struts.xml in result simply typed another action name and params and it worked. So I'm trying to do this:

<struts>
    <package name="main" extends="struts-default">
        <action name="test" class="com.test.TestAction">
            <result name="success">hello.action?id=${simpleParam}</result>
        </action>
        <action name="hello" class="com.test.HelloAction">
            <result>/hello.jsp</result>
        </action>
    </package>
</struts>

Idea totally sees this action but in browser I get 404 status. When I simply invoke hello.action from browser it works. Redirect also works. I also tried chain, but my param wasn't passed and it's not very convinient. Am I doing it right? And if so what could be the cause of 404 status?

this could be helpful: http://struts.apache.org/docs/action-chaining.html

<struts>
    <package name="main" extends="struts-default">
        <action name="test" class="com.test.TestAction">
            <result name="success" type="chain">hello</result>
        </action>
        <action name="hello" class="com.test.HelloAction">
            <result>/hello.jsp</result>
        </action>
    </package>
</struts>

to pass a parameter from one action to another you could use the HttpServletRequest (http://www.mkyong.com/struts2/how-to-get-the-httpservletrequest-in-struts-2):

TestAction.java:

package com.test;

import com.opensymphony.xwork2.Action;

public class TestAction implements Action{
    private String simpleParam;

    public String getSimpleParam() {
        return simpleParam;
    }

    public void setSimpleParam(String simpleParam) {
        this.simpleParam = simpleParam;
    }

    @Override
    public String execute() throws Exception {
        HttpServletRequest request = ServletActionContext.getRequest();
        request.setAttribute("id", simpleParam);
        return SUCCESS;
    }
}

HelloAction.java:

package com.test;

import com.opensymphony.xwork2.Action;

public class HelloAction implements Action {
    private String id;
    private String result;

    public String getId() {
        return id;
    }

    public String getResult() {
        return result;
    }

    @Override
    public String execute() throws Exception {
        HttpServletRequest request = ServletActionContext.getRequest();
        id = (String)request.getAttribute("id");

        result = "result" + getId();
        return SUCCESS;
    }
}
