all validators work-except custom??

[phillip rhodes <sp...@rhoderunner.com>]

I am so frustrated, I tried to get custom validations working all evening
and now it's 2:30 am....  Please help.  I would appreciate it immensely.

I have a form with many validations.  All validations get called and work
fine, except for a custom validation.  I get a "NoSuchMethodException" in
the console, although I do have the following.

1) \classes\com\rhoderunner\jsurvey\validators\IdenticalValidator.class
2) a method with the same signature as defined in validator-rules.
3) from the console, [INFO] ValidatorResources - -Add ValidatorAction:
identical,com.rhoderunner.jsurvey.validators.IdenticalValidator

I am using commons-validator 1.0.1
The jars from tiles-blank-struts1-1 webapp
I have tried many different versions/combos of the libraries, with no luck.

The following is my IdenticalValidator.java file, stack trace,
validator-rules.xml fragment and validation.xml fragment.


         <field    property="surveyUser.email"
             depends="required,email,identical">
               <arg0 key="registrationForm.email.displayname"/>
   <var>
    <var-name>secondProperty</var-name>
    <var-value>emailConfirm</var-value>
   </var>
         </field>
