I always get the following error when my form fails to validate:
org.apache.jasper.JasperException: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Neither BindingResult nor plain target object for bean name 'regform' available as request attribute
I don't get this error when the form input is valid. The root cause is
java.lang.IllegalStateException: Neither BindingResult nor plain target object for bean name 'regform' available as request attribute
Here is net.sandbox.controllers.RegistrationController
with the imports omitted for brevity's sake:
@Controller
@RequestMapping("/register")
public class RegistrationController {
@Autowired
private UserInfo userInfo;
@RequestMapping(method = RequestMethod.GET)
public String showRegForm(Model model) {
RegistrationForm regForm = new RegistrationForm();
model.addAttribute("regform", regForm);
return "regform";
}
@RequestMapping(method = RequestMethod.POST)
public String validateForm(@Valid RegistrationForm regForm, BindingResult result, Model model) {
if (result.hasErrors()) {
return "regform";
}
userInfo.setUserName(regForm.getFirstName());
model.addAttribute("regform", regForm);
return "regsuccess";
}
}
What does it mean?
Update: added requested JSP files.

That's because, in your validateForm(..)
method you don't put a form backing object into the modelMap as soon as the form validation fails. If you would reorganize your code like this:
@RequestMapping(method = RequestMethod.POST)
public String validateForm(@Valid RegistrationForm regForm, BindingResult result, Model model) {
model.addAttribute("regform", regForm);
if (result.hasErrors()) {
return "regform";
}
userInfo.setUserName(regForm.getFirstName());
return "regsuccess";
}
you could solve your problem, but it is still not a optimal solution. Best practice is to use a method to populate form objects like this:
@ModelAttribute("regform")
public RegistrationForm populateForm() {
RegistrationForm regForm = new RegistrationForm();
/* init regForm */
return regForm;
}
using populateForm method, you don't need to handle of creation of form backing objects yourself.
