Validation Failed error message

[Mehran Zonouzi <me...@db.com>]

I get a 'Validation Failed' error message when I run my code...
I suspect that my naming convention for the getters and setters methods in my ActionForm class may not be
correct...

I think it is the contactId param that must be causing the problem.
What should the getters and setters for contactId be called?

// This is my ActionForm class

package com.db.gcp.lemweb.blotter.contacts;

import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import org.apache.struts.action.*;

//------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

public final class EditContactForm extends ActionForm {

   private String page = null;
   private String contactId = null;


// The usual getter and setter methods for beans

  public String getContactId(){
            return (this.contactId);
      }

      public void setContactId(String contactId){
            this.contactId = contactId;
      }

  public String getPage(){
            return (this.page);
      }

      public void setPage(String page){
            this.page = page;
      }

  // This method performs the form validation
  public ActionErrors validate(ActionMapping mapping, HttpServletRequest request){
     ActionErrors errors = new ActionErrors() ;

     if ( page == null || "".equals(page)){
               errors.add("page", new ActionError("error.page"));
         }

     if ( contactId == null || "".equals(contactId)){
               errors.add("contactid", new ActionError("error.contactid"));
         }

         return errors;
  }
}

I'm not sure I understand the problem here, can you send the full error
message you are receiving?

Your getters and setters are correct for the contactId parameter.  FYI here
are some useful links for more information about correct JavaBeans naming
conventions.
http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/beanutils/api/org/apache/commons/beanutils/package-summary.html#overview
(this is documentation for the beanutils subproject in commons, look at the
bullets)
http://java.sun.com/products/javabeans/docs/spec.html

One thing that does look suspicious is this line of code from your validate
method:

errors.add("contactid", new ActionError("error.contactid"));

I would guess you should be doing

errors.add("contactId", new ActionError("error.contactid"));

note that contactId is not contactid.
