That was obvious to me because of a line I left out of error message:

ValidationException @ org.owasp.esapi.reference.DefaultValidator.getValidSaf
eHTML(null:-1)

However, that puts me no closer to understanding where it is coming from
originally.  This function is called originally in ModelService .validate
and there is a line of code there that sez something like
if(errorMessageList.size() > 0) thow ...

There are no exceptions in the log and no user has reported one.  I am just
seeing this on the console screen.

So, how do I find out which service is causing this?

Most likely that is coming from OWASP/ESAPI.
