[S2] : Help with annotated validation

[Zheng, Xiahong]

My annotated validation doesn't happen. The following are the code
snippets for action class and config files. When I leave the SSN field
blank and hit submit my action's execute method is called hence fails
instead of redisplay of the login page again with validation error
message. What am I missing here? 

LoginAction.java

Import my.package.actions

@Valiation()
Public class LoginAction extends ActionSupport {

//

@RequiredStringValidator(message="Please enter SSN")
Public void setSsn(String ssn){
        this.ssn = ssn;
}

//

Public String execute() throws Exception {
        // authenticate user here
}

}

Web.xml

Added filter init param

<init-param>
   <param-name>actionPackages</param-name>
   <param-value>my.package.actions</param-value>
</init-param>


Struts.xml

<action name="login" class="my.pacakge.LoginAction">
        <result>home</result>
      <result name="failed">loginError</result>
        <interceptor-ref name="autowiring"/>
      <interceptor-ref name="params"/>
      <interceptor-ref name="validate"/>
      <interceptor-ref name="workflow"/>
</action>
