Your ActionMessage should contain the key to a message in some message
resources, rather than the actual message itself. Something like...
errors.add(ActionErrors.GLOBAL_MESSAGE, new ActionMessage(
"user.required" ) );
then define "user.required=User name is null" in your message resources.

> <snip>
> public ActionErrors validate(ActionMapping mapping,
> HttpServletRequest request) {
> ActionErrors errors = new ActionErrors();
>
> if (username == null) {
> errors.add(ActionErrors.GLOBAL_MESSAGE, new ActionMessage( "User
name is null" ) );
>
> return errors;
> </snip>
