HTTP Status 400 - Required String parameter 'clientId' is not present

Question

I have Spring MVC application with this controller method.

@RequestMapping(value = "/saveMe", method = RequestMethod.POST)
   public @ResponseBody String saveMe(@RequestParam(value = "clientId") String strClientId,@RequestParam(value = "clientName") String strClientName,@RequestParam(value = "custBaseNo") String strCustBaseNo, @RequestParam(value = "category") String strCategory,@RequestParam(value = "clientCpt") String strClientCpt, @RequestParam(value = "pbk") String strPbk,@RequestParam(value = "prk") String strPrk,@RequestParam(value = "fileAct") int intFileAct, @RequestParam(value = "b2b") int intB2b,@RequestParam(value = "collection") int intCollection, @RequestParam(value = "primAccNo") String strPrimAccNo,@RequestParam(value = "accFromAcct") String strAccFromAcct,@RequestParam(value = "accToAcct") String strAccToAcct,@RequestParam(value = "intCount") int intCount,@RequestParam(value = "productId") String strProductId,HttpServletRequest request){
        String strStatus ="";
        System.out.println("strClientId is :::"+strClientId);
        strStatus = sabService.saveDetails(strClientId,strClientName,strCustBaseNo,strCategory,strClientCpt,strPbk,strPrk,intFileAct,intB2b,intCollection,strPrimAccNo,strAccFromAcct,strAccToAcct,intCount,strProductId);

        String[] strChkService = new String[intCount]; 
        String[] strAccNO = new String[intCount]; 
        int[] intTrnsLimit = new int[intCount]; 
        String[] strProtcl = new String[intCount]; 
        for(int j=1;j<=intCount;j++){
            strChkService[j] = request.getParameter("chkService"+j)==null?"":request.getParameter("chkService"+j);
            strAccNO[j]      = request.getParameter("accountNo"+j)==null?"":request.getParameter("accountNo"+j);
            intTrnsLimit[j]  = Integer.parseInt(request.getParameter("transactionLimit"+j)==null?"0":request.getParameter("transactionLimit"+j));
            strProtcl[j]     = request.getParameter("protocol"+j)==null?"":request.getParameter("protocol"+j);

            strStatus = sabService.saveServices(strClientId,strProductId,strChkService[j],strAccNO[j],intTrnsLimit[j], strProtcl[j] );
        }
        return "success";
    }

While submitting the form I'm getting this error.

                        <input class="form-control" name="clientName" id="client-name" required="true" placeholder="Client Name" type="text">
                    </div>
                </div>
</form>

What is the query string you are calling the controller with? Can you confirm that clientId is being passed? — ashosborne1, Nov 20 '15 at 10:04
@ashosborne1... i'm submitting the form with POST method..no query string is used.. — Bichu, Nov 20 '15 at 10:10
@jens jquery- $("#client-maint-form").attr("action","sabb/saveMe"); $("#client-maint-form").submit(); — Bichu, Nov 20 '15 at 10:16
@Jens form-
i have also tried with GET ...but getting this error HTTP Status 405 - Request method 'GET' not supported — Bichu, Nov 20 '15 at 10:18
@Please add it to your question using the edit function, not as a comment — Jens, Nov 20 '15 at 10:19
GET do not work, because your controller only accept POST requests — Jens, Nov 20 '15 at 10:20
Are you passing `clientId` somehow from the client? One example would be to have `someClientId` inside the form. Same goes for all other parameters you expect in the controller method — Predrag Maric, Nov 20 '15 at 10:21
@ Predrag Maric All parameters that are getting inside controller are present inside the form as input fields — Bichu, Nov 20 '15 at 10:26
@Predrag Maric please check the form...i have just shown only two input fields as the form is huge... — Bichu, Nov 20 '15 at 10:33
@ Predrag Maric when i remove enctype="multipart/form-data" i'm getting error code 400 in browser — Bichu, Nov 20 '15 at 10:39
Same one as before, or a different one? See if [this](http://stackoverflow.com/a/17964870/4074715) helps — Predrag Maric, Nov 20 '15 at 10:53
While not an answer, one primary reason for using a framework is to avoid the tedious binding of submitted parameters to domain objects. You're code would be a lot cleaner if you created a Model object and bound your form to that rather than working with individual params. See, for example: http://www.baeldung.com/spring-mvc-form-tutorial — Alan Hay, Nov 20 '15 at 13:32
You can narrow down the problem by setting required=false on the @RequestParam annotation for clientId. If the method executes (with an error obviously) then you know it is a problem only with that param. If it complains about the next one in the list then you know it is something else. — Alan Hay, Nov 20 '15 at 13:35
