I think the @OP's difficulty is with the name vs method attributes of the
action element so (if I may
be excused for borrow Musachy's example) if you have
<package name="survey" namespace="/survey" extends="struts-default">
<action name="save" class="survey.SurveyAction" method="persist">
<result>/survey/survey-results.jsp</result>
<result name="input">/survey/survey.jsp</result>
</action>
</package>
then the action alias is save (and not persist)

Subject: Re: s2: Validation xml file not being used when validating a method
It can be done like that as well, but, your first attempt should be
better. The "alias" part is the action name, lets say you have an
action like this:
<package name="survey" namespace="/survey" extends="struts-default">
<action name="save" class="survey.SurveyAction" method="save">
<result>/survey/survey-results.jsp</result>
<result name="input">/survey/survey.jsp</result>
</action>
</package>
you would need to name the validation file
"SurveyAction-save-validation.xml", and this file *has* to be in the
classpath of the application under "survey". Make sure that the
validation file is landing next to the action that it is supposed to
validate, in the web app classes dir.
