Also, note, that you are trying to combine two FORM validators.

Since the first requirement belongs on the DAL / on db checking, so the
database can raise an error, then your second requirement is _clearly_
(correct?) a form validator:  you want the form to not be accepted if it is
submitted without a name...

So you mean is more clearly said like this:

  db.define_table('student',
       SQLField('student_name', 'string', uniq=True),
....

Since you probably don't want student name dropdown boxes in the form, then
this will work:

  db.student.student_name.requires = [
IS_NOT_IN_DB(db,"student.student_name") ]
  ....
  db.student.student_name.requires.append( IS_NOT_EMPTY() )
