No getter method it sayes

[Faisal Shoukat <Fa...@sssworldwide.com>]

I get the following error when trying to load a jsp page:

 

No getter method for property action of bean
org.apache.struts.taglib.html.BEAN

 

After looking through various postings it seems that this is to do with
the getter method in the form bean however my form bean does have the
getter method in it and it is public.  In fact I have another JSP page
which does something similar which actually works with the same
property.

 

Following is my code in the jsp which it complains about:

 

<html:hidden property="action"/>

 

In my form bean I have the following: 

 

/**

                         * @return Returns the action.

                         */

                        public String getAction() {

                                    return action;

                        }

 

                        /**

                         * @param action The action to set.

                         */

                        public void setAction(String action) {

                                    this.action = action;

            }

 

 

What is even stranger is I am adding something to this form in the
multibox element further down the page which works fine if I remove the
html:hidden tag. 

So the form and struts configuration is fine.

 

<td width="28"> 

        <div align="center">

          <html:multibox name="pendingRecordForm" property="party">

            <bean:write name="record" property="identity"/>

            </html:multibox>

            </div>

      </td>

 

Has anybody any advise

You probably aren't using the form bean you think you are... Check your 
mappings and JSP and make sure the from bean that's associated with the 
containing html:form tag is actually the one you expect.

This doesn't prove the configuration is fine; you're using the 'name' 
attribute in your html:multibox tag, so you've proved that there is a 
scripting variable named 'pendingRecordForm', but that doesn't 
necessarily mean that the form bean and this scripting variable are the 
same...
