Recently upgraded from Drools 4.0.7 to 5.1.0 and have imported our rules into Guvnor.  Unable to determine why the same rules will not correctly validate in Guvnor which prevents building a package for deployment.

Sample Rule:

<b>salience 50
agenda-group "idia"
                when
       Root(identityRequest != null)
                then
                                logger.debug("Main - Main Data Evaluation");
                                System.out.println("Main - Main Data Evaluation");
        drools.getWorkingMemory().setFocus("mainAnalysis");</b>
Throws the following validation error when you select ‘Validate’:
<b>[Main - Data Evaluation] Unable to create Field Extractor for 'identityRequest' of '[ClassObjectType class=com.netid.idia.model.natal.rootIdentityRequest.Root]' in rule 'Main - Data Evaluation'</b>

Unsure why identityRequest  is failing.  There is a valid getter in the java file and guvnor displays identityRequest in the list of attributes for ‘Root’. Oddly, if I change the when clause to be    Root(this.identityRequest != null)  it validates fine.  Did something change between 4.0.7 and 5.1.0 that I’m missing or do I have error somewhere that goes undetected outside the guvnor?
