Struts Status 500 error error

[AnilPrakash Raju]

Hi,

I encounter the status 500 error when i tried to save a form.

My form uses nested:iterate to display several rows of textfields.

** textfield ** textfield **
** textfield ** textfield **
** textfield ** textfield **
** textfield ** textfield **
save button

the user can edit several textfields in each row and by the hitting the save button, the whole vector should save.

But when i hit the save button,
i get the error

HTTP Status 500 - Internal Server Error
type Exception report

message Internal Server Error

description The server encountered an internal error (Internal Server Error) that prevented it from fulfilling this request.

exception

javax.servlet.ServletException: BeanUtils.populate
at org.apache.struts.util.RequestUtils.populate(RequestUtils.java:1254)
at org.apache.struts.action.RequestProcessor.processPopulate(RequestProcessor.java:821)
at org.apache.struts.action.RequestProcessor.process(RequestProcessor.java:254)
etc...


root cause

java.lang.NullPointerException
at org.apache.commons.beanutils.PropertyUtils.getIndexedProperty(PropertyUtils.java:515)
at org.apache.commons.beanutils.PropertyUtils.getIndexedProperty(PropertyUtils.java:428)
etc..

i put some break points in my action and action form, but it does seem to reach either tha actionForm or the action.

Thanks in advance

Anil

Actually my last comment should be

"i put some break points in my action and action form, but it does not seem to reach either tha actionForm or the action. "

You might get some replies if you post your tags and the form's accessor methods.

hi anil

There might be some problem with the either data type of ur elements in the form bean r some mismatch while using Mapbacked actionforms

so if u can post ur jsp with the form bean then it would be helpful

Thanks

the code in the jsp

<nested:iterate name="systemForm" property="reportPeriodVec" id="reportPeriod" type="vo.ReportPeriod" >
<tr class="trClass">
<td class="tdClass"><nested:text property="strPeriodStart" /> </td>
<td class="tdClass" ><nested:text property="strPeriodEnd" /> </td>
<td class="tdClass" ><nested:text property="strWorkingDays"/> </td>
</tr>
</nested:iterate>

the SystemForm have:

public String getStrPeriodStart(){ return strPeriodStart; }
public void setStrPeriodStart(String strPeriodStart)
{ this.strPeriodStart = strPeriodStart; }
public String getStrPeriodEnd() { return strPeriodEnd; }
public void setStrPeriodEnd(String strPeriodEnd)
{ this.strPeriodEnd = strPeriodEnd; }
public String getStrWorkingDays() { return strWorkingDays; }
public void setStrWorkingDays(String strWorkingDays)
{ this.strWorkingDays = strWorkingDays; }

public ReportPeriodVec getReportPeriodVec()
{ return reportPeriodVec; }
public void setReportPeriodVec(ReportPeriodVec reportPeriodVec)
{ this.reportPeriodVec = reportPeriodVec; }

Thanks

Try changing String to String[] in your accessor methods that deal with the 3 indexed properties.
