Thanks Laurie, that was what I needed to do.
Turns out that my action was setting an action error before doing its
chaining and so when validation was triggered on the chained action it
was thinking an error had occurred and forcing the "input" result.
So, now all I really need to know is if there is a way that I can just
flat out disable all of struts2's validation stuff but still have my
actions extend ActionSupport? Is there something I can put in my
struts.xml file to prevent validation from running against my actions?
I would also technically consider this a bug because IMO I should be
allowed to set action errors and chain to other actions without having
validation break my chaining. My guess is that the validation code is
using the hasActionErrors() method to determine if the 'input' result
should be sent after validation, but that seems suboptimal. It would be
better if the validation actually tracked if it had actually failed any
of its validation checks and only modify the result then, not just
because there is an action error.

As well as validation errors, there could still be conversion errors.
You said you don't have any conversions configured but remember that
Struts will apply default converters if you have any setters on the
action that take non-String arguments (assuming the request includes an
attribute that matches that setter).
I would suggest setting up an 'input' result pointing to a simple JSP
page with s:actionerror, s:actionmessage and s:debug tags on it. Maybe
you'll find a clue as to what's wrong there.

I can't see any reason why validation would be doing
anything at all unless somehow the validation interceptor wants to
use one of the methods in my action class for validation when i

So you have no *-validation.xml files? No methods
named validate*?
nope, no *-validation.xml files and no validate* methods. i do have a
myValidate() method in some actions which i started using after
realizing that i couldn't use validate().

Hrm.
