Hi Gunnar- Are you implementing with com.opensymphony.xwork2.ValidationAwareSupport..if so could you post the code? Also Could you post struts.xml, struts-validation.xml and any ActionClass-validation.xml as well as struts-conversion.xml? Also in struts-default.xml please display the interceptor defined for conversionError
