Hi,

I am getting a strange exception during submit of a Tapestry form that I cannot 
explain. It happens just rarely (but regularily) in the production environment. 
I cannot even reproduce the exception.

I have a form in tml file of a Tapestry component.

...
<t:form t:id="searchForm" clientValidation="none">
    ....
    <t:select t:id="globalSport" model="globalSportModel" 
value="formData.globalSportId" blankOption="never"/>
    ....
</t:form>
..

And here is the important part of corresponding Java file:

...
@Property(read = true, write = false)
private ServiceSearchFormData formData;
...
@OnEvent(value = EventConstants.PREPARE_FOR_SUBMIT, component = "searchForm")
void prepareForSubmit()
{
    formData = new ServiceSearchFormData();
}
...

It seems to be pretty straightforward. ServiceSearchFormData is a DTO with few 
attributes and getter / setter methods. It encapsulates data submitted in the 
form. An instance is created on "prepare for submit" event.

The exception occurs in scope of a POST request that submits data to this form. 
The exception message states:

Failure writing parameter 'value' of component 
MyPortal:portalindex.portalsearchform.globalsport: Property 'formData' (within 
property expression 'formData.globalSportId', of 
cz.ftm.fitsoftware.webapp.components.PortalSearchForm@3262579e) is null.

I have no idea how this happens. How can the property formData be 
uninitialized? It seems that the method prepareForSubmit is not called.

Thanks for help.
Jarda
