Juan,
I think I made a mistake (sort of) when I shared some of this code. I
didn't realize you don't need the dispatch field (or whatever you want
to name it) in the actual DynaActionForm or an ActionForm. I notice
that the UserDTO doesn't have the dispatch member in it, so maybe the
PropertyUtils is looking for to convert that field from the
DynaActionForm? (Not sure though just a guess since I haven't used
PropertyUtils ). Try just removing the
<form-property name="dispatch" type="java.lang.String"/>
from the DyanActionForm and see what happens.
