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,
Matt

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):

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.
