I know I'm missing something, because the struts-validator example provided
with 1.1b3 works fine. I've compared all of my own code with the example,
and I don't see what's wrong.
In my own webapp, I set a single field as required and submit the form with
nothing in the field, it doesn't re-display the form with errors, it just
goes off to my 'unrecoverable error' because the Action logic expects that
value to be present.
Here's what I have, hopefully someone will see the problem:
struts-config.xml:
<form-bean name="chooseProfileForm"
type="edu.asu.vpia.struts.ChooseProfileForm"/>
<action path="/chooseProfile"
type="edu.asu.vpia.struts.ChooseProfileAction"
name="chooseProfileForm"
scope="request"
validate="true"
input="choose.profile">
<forward name="success" path="/viewProfile.do" />
<forward name="resolution" path="/resolveName.do" />
</action>
<plug-in className="org.apache.struts.validator.ValidatorPlugIn">
<set-property property="pathnames" value="/WEB-INF/validator-rules.xml,
/WEB-INF/validation.xml"/>
</plug-in>
When the webapp starts, I see this in the logs:
09:59:02,356 - INFO org.apache.struts.validator.ValidatorPlugIn - Loading
validation rules file from '/WEB-INF/validator-rules.xml'
09:59:04,813 - INFO org.apache.commons.validator.ValidatorResources - Add

09:59:04,813 - INFO org.apache.struts.validator.ValidatorPlugIn - Loading

{snipped a bunch of the above lines}
09:59:05,084 - INFO org.apache.commons.validator.ValidatorResources - Adding
FormSet 'FormSet: language=null country=null variant=null
Form: chooseProfileForm
Field:
key= nameOrId
property= nameOrId
indexedProperty= null
indexedListProperty= null
depends= required
page= 0
fieldOrder= 0
Vars:
But when I visit the form and submit it with nothing in that field:
10:08:17,963 - DEBUG org.apache.struts.action.RequestProcessor - Validating
input form properties
10:08:17,963 - DEBUG org.apache.struts.action.RequestProcessor - No errors
detected, accepting input
Does anyone see what's wrong?
