javax.validation.ConstraintDefinitionException: HV000074

Question

I am trying to use javax/hibernate custom validation on specific field, but I am getting the following error:

javax.validation.ConstraintDefinitionException: HV000074: com.hertz.digital.hertzrac.model.Code contains Constraint annotation, but does not contain a payload parameter.

Custom Interface

import java.lang.annotation.Documented;
import java.lang.annotation.Retention;
import java.lang.annotation.Target;
import java.lang.annotation.ElementType;
import java.lang.annotation.RetentionPolicy;
import javax.validation.Constraint;
import javax.validation.Payload;

@Constraint(validatedBy = {CustomValidator.class})

@Documented
public @interface Code {
    String message() default "Invalid Limit of Code";
    Class<?>[] groups() default {};
    Class<? extends Payload>[] palyload() default {};


}

Custom Validator

import javax.validation.ConstraintValidator;
import javax.validation.ConstraintValidatorContext;

public class CustomValidator implements ConstraintValidator<Code, String>{

    @Override
    public void initialize(Code constraintAnnotation) {

    }

    @Override
    public boolean isValid(String rewardRequest, ConstraintValidatorContext context) {
        if(rewardRequest.length()<2)
            return true;
        else
            return false;
    }

}

Have followed reference doc, but still wasn’t able to resolve.

Answer 1

The message is pretty clear:

com.hertz.digital.hertzrac.model.Code contains Constraint annotation, but does not contain a payload parameter

You just have a typo in your annotation class (palyload instead of payload). Replace the line with

Class<? extends Payload>[] payload() default {};
