My first thought was that you might be using an action as you validation key i.e., in validation.xml, instead of:
<form name="loginForm"> you had: <form name="/login"> But this is not the case. So, I can't really tell why this is happening.

Here is the relevent section of my validation.xml and struts-config.xml. Note that this error only happens when I use ValidationForm. And I have no clue what that excpetion is! Any thoughts? From struts-config.xml <form-bean name="loginForm" type="com.pac.its.action.form.LoginForm"/> <action path="/login" type="com.pac.its.action.security.LoginAction" name="loginForm" scope="request" validate="true" input="/WEB-INF/pages/login.jsp"> <forward name="success" path="/WEB-INF/pages/login.jsp"/> </action> From Validation.xml: <form name="loginForm"> <field property="password" depends="required"> <arg0 key="errors.required" resource="false" /> </field> </form> My Validator-rule.xml <form-validation> <global> <validator name="required" classname="org.apache.struts.validator.FieldChecks" method="validateRequired" methodParams="java.lang.Object, org.apache.commons.validator.ValidatorAction, org.apache.commons.validator.Field, org.apache.struts.action.ActionMessages, javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest" msg="errors.required"/> </global> </form-validation> "Chaudhary, Harsh" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Could you also include of you validation.xml and struts-config.xml?
