I just called my validation file ActionClassName-validation.xml, don't even know what this alias is... and validation seems to work fine.
As far as I recall (can't check it right now) I did not have to set validate="true" for my form. I am also using the ajax theme but I set it using the <s:head> tag, while I set the theme of the form to simple. This is because I just want the datetimepicker to work, but I don't want the <s:form> to create markup because I want to create it manually. This means also that validation errors are not displayed next to the respective field but I use the <s:fielderror> tag instead, it creates an unordered list with all validation error messages. Hope this helps you a little. Torsten Olivier THIERRY wrote: > OK, it works now.
