The validator does logging, but it is mostly at the debug level, which is typically turned off by default. You have to configure a logger to turn on debug level logging to see the validator's log messages. Otherwise the validator will operate (and in some cases hide errors) silently.

Logging is a subject I didnīt care much about. In Struts 1.0 I used only servlet.log(...). I gess the validator is simply not logging anything. (are there some messages that should appear in any case? I am checking catalina.out) It seems to be a validator problem. All the input the validator needs seems to be in place. I will try a custom validation method next. Steve Caswell wrote: >The Struts Validator plug-in delegates to Commons Validator for the real work. >Commons Validator uses Commons Logging for logging.
