Hi Martin, Is this the ticket you refer to? https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WICKET-5190
It has an explanation on why onFileUploadException() is called on the root form that seems reasonable. In any case, if I don't specify the form id in the property key (leaving just "uploadTooLarge") I get the following MissingResourceException when FileUploadBase.SizeLimitExceededException is thrown: *java.util.MissingResourceException*: Unable to find property: 'form1.uploadTooLarge' for component: border:border_body:form1 [class=org.apache.wicket.markup.html.form.Form]. Locale: null, style: null As you can see, I do have a border complicating things (not sure if it might play a role here) but it worked just fine in Wicket 6.17.0. In fact I had to add the form id ("form0.uploadTooLarge") to make it work in 6.23.0, but then I ran into this other issue that, when form0 is nested in form1, Wicket looks up for "form1.uploadTooLarge" instead. I also noticed that there is a new fileMaxSize property in Form that wasn't there in 6.17.0. Should I use that one instead of maxSize? It has no setter though... Any clarification would be much appreciated.
