When validation fails, Struts forwards to the location indicated by the respective mapping's input attribute. So for example, your action-mapping with path 'SetupFormBean' will, upon validation failure, take you to /pages/newinstallation.jsp -- because that is what you have set as your 'input'.
I would suggest changing the input to the name of the Tile (newDef). This way, the entire tile will be displayed.

Its been going very well up until this point, but now I am stuck. I have a simple tile layout called common_layout. Common_layout uses a header/footer/rightmenu/body configuration. I also just started to use the validation tool. My first page presents fine. On it, is a hyperlink to a second page which has a form. Click on the hyperlink correctly displays the second page including the form. Submitting the form with correct information proceeds correctly. However when validation fails, instead of taking me to a page generated by the common_layout. The page it returns too only includes the body of the layout. Any suggestions as to why this could be happening or any potential solutions? I have included snippets of my config below and would be happy to include anything else that might be pertinent.
