Validator not getting called and I can't see why
I'm either missing something stupid (which is always possible) or I've
managed to break the validator. I have an app that uses validator all
over the place and it's working fine in all my other actions but for
this one action it is simply not getting called.
I can't see any difference between this action/form/validation and all
the other ones that are working.
This is the form:
<form-bean name="createStudentGroupForm"
type="org.apache.struts.validator.DynaValidatorForm">
<form-property name="groupName" type="java.lang.String" />
<form-property name="noStudents" type="java.lang.String" />
<form-property name="groupType" type="java.lang.String" />
<form-property name="wikiText" type="java.lang.String" />
<form-property name="studentNames" type="java.lang.String[]" />
</form-bean>
This is the action:
<action path="/mentor/createStudentGroupStep1"
type="vtie.portal.mentor.CreateStudentGroupPrepareAction"
name="createStudentGroupForm" scope="session" validate="true"
input="/home/mentor/addStudentGroupForm.jsp">
<forward name="createAnonymous"
path="/do/mentor/createAnonymousStudentGroup" />
<forward name="getStudentNames"
path="/home/mentor/getStudentNamesForm.jsp" />
<forward name="fail" path="/home/mentor/addStudentGroupForm.jsp" />
</action>
And this is the validation:
<form name="createStudentGroupForm">
<field property="groupName" page="1" depends="required, mask">
<var><var-name>mask</var-name><var-value>^[a-zA-Z]+[\w\
]*$</var-value></var>
<arg0 key="mentor.createStudentGroup.groupName.label"/>
</field>
<field property="noStudents" page="1" depends="required, integer">
<arg0 key="mentor.createStudentGroup.noStudents.label"/>
</field>
<field property="studentNames" page="2" depends="required">
<arg0 key="mentor.createStudentGroup.studentNames.label"/>
</field>
</form>
Can anyone see something obviously wrong there?
Cheers,
Bart.

Posted by Matt Kurjanowicz <ma...@gmail.com>.
Just curios - that's the only createStudentGroupForm instance in your
struts config?
Since DynaValidatorForm extends DynaActionForm it inherits' the
DynaActionForm toString - which always just starts off with
"DynaActionForm[..." - in the action, can you log the actual class
(form.getClass().getName()) to see what the actual class is - it could
be that struts thinks you only have a DynaActionForm instead of a
DynaValidatorForm.
Cheers,

Validator is throwing a wobbler like you said. You have the DEBUG
message from the RequestProcessor before it does validation - but
there should be one after saying either there were errors or that
everything was OK. You need to find out what the exception being
thrown is for - create a custom DynaValidatorForm and trap the
exception and get the cause.
The other thing that someone else pointed out is that you have used
the "page" attribute in your validation.xml, but not defined it as a
property for your DynaValidatorForm - so maybe its something to do
with that.
Anyway the root of the problem is the exception being throw - find out
what that is and it should shed a whole lot more light on the problem.

Re: Validator not getting called and I can't see why
Posted by Bart Busschots <ba...@so-4pt.net>.
Hi Niall,
I don't seem to be able to get log output form the validator. Maybe I'm
doing something wrong?
This is my commons-logging.properties file:
org.apache.commons.logging.Log=org.apache.commons.logging.impl.SimpleLog
org.apache.commons.logging.simplelog.defaultlog=debug
org.apache.commons.logging.simplelog.showlogname=true
org.apache.commons.logging.simplelog.showdatetime=true
And this is my simplelog.properties file:
org.apache.commons.logging.simplelog.log.org.apache.struts.validator=trace
This is not producing any output from the validator at all so I set the
default log level to debug and then I see this when I submit the form
that is not being validated with no data at all entered (note that every
field depends on required):
[DEBUG] ModuleUtils - Get module name for path /do
[DEBUG] ModuleUtils - Module name found: default
[DEBUG] RequestProcessor - Processing a 'POST' for path

To my un-trained eye this looks like the validator is being called but
not doing what it should, i.e. throwing a wobbler when it gets no data
in any field. The validation for the form in validation.xml is as follows:
<form name="createStudentGroupForm">
<field property="groupName" page="1" depends="required, mask">
<var><var-name>mask</var-name><var-value>^[a-zA-Z]+[\w\
]*$</var-value></var>
<arg0 key="mentor.createStudentGroup.groupName.label"/>
</field>
<field property="noStudents" page="1" depends="required, integer">
<arg0 key="mentor.createStudentGroup.noStudents.label"/>
</field>
<field property="studentNames" page="2" depends="required">
<arg0 key="mentor.createStudentGroup.studentNames.label"/>
</field>
</form>
Does any of this make sense to you and can you see anything odd in the
traces above?
Thanks,
Bart.

Try turning on logging in debug mode, should give you more info about
what its doing.

Re: Validator not getting called and I can't see why [resolved]
Posted by Bart Busschots <ba...@so-4pt.net>.
OK, I got all this figured out in the end.
The validator was being called but because of problems with the page
attribute in the form the validator appears to have been receiving a
page value of zero and hence not validating the items on pages 1 or two
because neither 1 nor 2 are less that or equal to zero! When I did get
the validator to be called it still wasn't working right but I got that
fixed too.
Anyhow, I did up a blog post about it which can be found here:
http://www.bartbusschots.ie/blog/?p=262
If people thing an edited version of this would be a useful addition to
the Wiki work away, just credit me or link to the original blog post and
I'll be more than happy.
Cheers for your help guys,
Bart.

Re: Validator not getting called and I can't see why
Posted by Matt Kurjanowicz <ma...@gmail.com>.
Do you have the property "page" being submitted with your form:
<html:hidden property="page" value="1"/>
Also, are you sure that the validation isn't working and the error
messages aren't getting displayed? Can you send the jsp source?
