I can get 400 error but there is no json object with ServiceStack fluent validation

Question

Check List:

• Dto is X
• Response object is XResult:IHasResponseStatus and it is in the same namespace with X
• XValidator:AbstractValidator is working. I can get 400 error when sent invalid object
• Plugins.Add(new ValidationFeature());
• container.RegisterValidators(typeof(X).Assembly);
• Accept application/json, text/javascript, /; q=0.01 in request headers.

I'm calling service from html. Validation framework is working but response is not json object. It is look like XML in firebug.

The part (that is responsible for catching error and serializing it to json) seems not working

Any guess?

UPDATE

XResult must be XResponse.. Thanks kampsj

Answer 1

In your case, your response DTO should be named XResponse not XResult. You have to adhere to the following convention for response DTOs

{Request DTO Name} + Response
