Spring MVC, Hibernate 3 and @Valid Problem

Question

I have Spring MVC with JDBC that uses @Valid annotations, and all this works very well, including validation.

Now I have created a similar webapp that uses Hibernate (instead of JDBC), and it also works well so far.

I decided to “pin” the check before continuing with a large number of domains, etc.

So, I added @Valid to the save process in the controller as follows:

@RequestMapping(value = "/productgroup/save", method = RequestMethod.POST)
public String updateProductGroup(**@Valid** ProductGroup productGroup, BindingResult bindingResult) 

This is the only change I am making and now it is crashing:

SEVERE: Servlet.service () for servlet appServlet threw exception

I use: org.hibernate Overwinter-validator 4.0.2.GA clear javax.validation validation-api 1.0.0.GA       

I tried @NotEmpty both in the ProductGroup productGroupName field and in my Getter.

Any ideas?

I really never expected any problems here, since I had no problems getting validation to work in my version of JDBC ...
