Custom VF SelectList component error - "Validation Error: Value is not valid"

Hello. I have a custom VF component which contains an <apex:selectList> component, as follows:

 

<apex:component controller="picklistController" id="compPickList">
    <apex:attribute name="SystemEntity" description="" type="String" required="true" default="Account" assignTo="{!systemObject}"></apex:attribute>
    <apex:attribute name="picklistField" description="" type="String" required="true" default="Type" assignTo="{!picklist_Field}"></apex:attribute>
    <apex:attribute name="value" description="" type="String[]" required="true"></apex:attribute>
    <apex:selectList id="ddlPickList" value="{!value}" multiselect="true" size="4">
        <apex:selectOptions value="{!pickListOptions}"></apex:selectOptions>
    </apex:selectList>
</apex:component>
 
The component's controller is obvious, so am skipping it for now.
 
The component acceps two attributes which it uses to populate the selectList options. I am using this component in a page and it works fine, i.e. am able to retrieve the selected values from the component into the page as long as am working with the pre-populated options, the code is as follows:
 
 
<apex:page controller="sampleCon" id="myPage">
    <apex:form id="myForm">
        <c:sObjectFieldPicklistComponent id="accountPicklist" value="{!accountIndustry}" picklistField="Ownership" systemEntity="Account" />
        <apex:commandButton value="Test" action="{!SaveValues}"  />
    </apex:form>
</apex:page>
 
I am again skipping the page controller code as it's obvious, but do let me know if you want to see it.
 
Now, the problem starts when I add dynamic <option> to this multi-select picklist through JavaScript, am able to add them in the browser on the client side, but when I click on the command button to submit the user selected values, the previously working code breaks, the values are not submitted, the execution never enters the action function (in this case - SaveValues()), and I get a message in the System Log window:
 
myPage:myForm:accountPicklist:compPickList:ddlPickList: Validation Error: Value is not valid 
 
Any idea what's happening here? I am suspecting that the system (not me) is checking the submitted values against the viewstate and is throwing an error somewhere which I am unable to trap and trace.
 
Can someone please explain this behavior, and if possible, a solution to get this thing going?
 
Thanks in advance!

I was able to find a workaround for this issue.



In my case I am using 3 tabs and 2 picklists are used for
each tab. So for 3 tabs there are total of 6 picklists.



The issue was values for each pair of picklists were different
for each tab. And due to values mismatch it was giving error on tab switch.



So the workaround that I found for this issue is :



I wrote small javascript code that is being called on tab
change. Following is the javascript code I used. This refers the picklist and
sets its value to  empty string :



document.getElementById ('page: myform1:block2:Info1:
firstTable: 0:select1').value = ''; document.getElementById ('page:
myform2:block2:Info2: secondTable: 1:select2').value = '';



 



This code just sets the value for each picklist to '  '(Empty String) temporarily. This is the
default value for each picklist. So, when the page get loads completely original
values overrides this default value and you get the value expected. 



This way it does not give any validation error as default
value is present in each picklist for each tab.

Hi I have a simlar issue if I understand you correctly? When using the apex:SelectList tag my required fields are not displaying with the normal red left border property "showing that they are required" and when i try and submit  without populating the field I get the following or similar unreadble validation error message returned to to the . "j_id0:StdOXCEITemplate:j_id9:j_id37:j_id49:j_id50:org: Validation Error: Value is required." Returned to the apex:pageMessages tag.
 
Any solution appreciated

I am also having a similar issue on a selectRadio. I do not have it set as required nor have I set any other validation on the page.

Did you decalere any varibles as static in your controller? If so try to remove the static keyword!
 
I had a similar problem and it was because I have set some relevat variables as static variables.

I think the issue I had was with a set of checkboxes. The variable that stored the value for the checkboxes (public string[] selectedBoxes { get; set; }) was not set (selectBoxes = new string[]()) before the checked box's value was attempted to be added to the string[]. After making sure that the variable was set before values were added, the problem did not occur.

Ajay (metaforce),
 
It looks like your variable accountIndustry should be an array since your selectList has multiselect="true". Can you check to see that you are setting accountIndustry ( = new List<string>();) before you click the commandButton?
 
Hope that helps.

I have exactly the same issue. Can anyone help me out?

Mukul,
Can you post some sample code?
Thanks.

Makul,
Is this your entire apex class? What action (clicking a button, changing a value, etc.) on the visualforce page causes the error?
Thanks. 


MukulMukul
Hi there,
 
No this is not my entire apex class. When i click the submit button, at that time it happens.
 
Regards
Mukul 


DrawloopSupportDrawloopSupport
Makul,
Your visualforce page does not have a Submit button. The buttons are Save & Define Rules, Save & Return, and Cancel. In order to debug what those buttons are doing, I would need to be able to see the part of your class that includes the functions for those buttons. 
Thanks.

Hi Drawloop,
 
It happens the moment i click the Save and Define or Save and Return button. 
 
Here is my code:
 
 
/ Save and Define Method (This saves a rule set in the rule set object)
 public PageReference saveanddefine() {
 	System.debug('In Save and Define...');

Hi Drawloop,
 
Were you able to find out what might be causing the issue? Please let me know.
 
it is very urgent!
 
Regards
Mukul 


DrawloopSupportDrawloopSupport
Apologies, Makul. I have not had a chance to dig through all your code. If no one else here on the community boards can help quick enough, you can always log a ticket with Salesforce. They may or may not be able/willing to help, but it's worth a shot.

Makul,
This still doesn't look like your entire apex class. I suspect the problem is with one of your get or set functions. I saw the error "Validation Error: Value is not valid" when a list was instantiated, not set to anything, and a value was being added to it. 
This error is exactly why we need Salesforce to implement this idea:  Visualforce Error Line Numbers.
Thanks.

I was able to find a workaround for this issue.



In my case I am using 3 tabs and 2 picklists are used for
each tab. So for 3 tabs there are total of 6 picklists.



The issue was values for each pair of picklists were different
for each tab. And due to values mismatch it was giving error on tab switch.



So the workaround that I found for this issue is :



I wrote small javascript code that is being called on tab
change. Following is the javascript code I used. This refers the picklist and
sets its value to  empty string :



document.getElementById ('page: myform1:block2:Info1:
firstTable: 0:select1').value = ''; document.getElementById ('page:
myform2:block2:Info2: secondTable: 1:select2').value = '';



 



This code just sets the value for each picklist to '  '(Empty String) temporarily. This is the
default value for each picklist. So, when the page get loads completely original
values overrides this default value and you get the value expected. 



This way it does not give any validation error as default
value is present in each picklist for each tab.    
This was selected as the best answer
