Strange behaviour after updating to ajax4jsf 1.1.0

[saschaqs]

Hi,

today I updated from 1.0.6 to 1.1.0 because we want to use richfaces, but now I have a strange problem: the login page renders correctly, but after submit I get an "No FacesContext found" Exception from ajax4jsf.

We changed nothing on the portal config, except removing the old ajax4jsf jar and adding the new one (+richfaces jar).
We are using MyFaces 1.1.1, Tomahawk and Facelets. After changing back to ajax4jsf 1.0.6 everything goes fine again.

Any hints?

TIA
Sascha

Please, provide full Exception stack trace.
P.S. Portlet support in not ready for both 1.0.6/1.1.0 branches :-)

Hi,

this is the stacktrace. OwnViewHandler is derived from FaceletViewHandler, we are doing directory protection with it. The exception shows up at a point after calling super.renderView(). After that the only following code calculates the time the view needs for rendering and logs it into Debug. And in this debug statement we do a viewToRender.getViewId(). And this throws the Exception, what it never had done before 1.1.0 :-)
