Usually, when this happens, it's because you aren't accessing the controller function.
There are two common reasons for this. Either your application is set to not reload, and you've added the controller stuff without manually reloading your application, or you aren't calling the controller method to begin with. The easiest way to figure this out is to turn reload on and also turn debug on in your ColdSpring.xml. See below for a snippet: <bean id="modelglue.modelGlueConfiguration" class="ModelGlue.gesture.configuration.ModelGlueConfiguration"> <!-- Be sure to change these to false when you go to production! --> <property name="reload"><value>true</value></property> <property name="debug"><value>true</value></property> You will need to manually reload your application for the changes to be picked up. Once you do, you should have a bunch of debug messages below. Look for the name of the message that you have in your event that is linked to the getClient() method in your controller. If it isn't there, you can start to match up the Message name, with the message-listener message attribute in your controller.xml declaration. If you haven't figured it out by then, post the ModelGlue.xml configuration on http://pastebin.com and post the URL of the pastebin back to this thread.
