don't know what to do with error message on deploy...

[nephthys76]

Hi...

JBoss 4.2.0
JDK 1.5.0_11
Windows XP

I have just put a .war file into my "deploy" folder. When JBoss attempted to deploy, I got a very long stack trace of errors. The .war file is not mine... I don't know what it contains except that I know it is using ADF JavaServerFaces (adf-faces-impl-10_1_3_0_4.jar).

The initial error is:

14:06:27,343 ERROR [[/ADFTest]] Exception sending context initialized event to listener instance of class org.jboss.web.jsf.integration.config.JBossJSFConfigureListener
java.lang.ClassCastException: com.sun.faces.application.ApplicationAssociate
 at com.sun.faces.application.ApplicationAssociate.getInstance(ApplicationAssociate.java:172)
 at com.sun.faces.config.JSFVersionTracker.publishInstanceToApplication(JSFVersionTracker.java:266)

I have "googled" the error, and determined that one possible cause of this problem lies in the application.xml, where a reference to the .war filename has the wrong case (i.e. ADFTEST.war instead of ADFTest.war). There was such a reference, and I fixed it, but I still received the same error.

Any direction at all on this one would be very helpful.

Thanks in advance,
Tonya

I can successfully deploy this .war file in JBoss 4.0.x, but not in JBoss 4.2.0

I believe it could be a conflict between built-in JBoss JSF/ADF support and the libraries being included in the .war file.

I am currently "mucking" about with the .war file trying to remove libraries and I am getting the application to deploy error-free... but when I try to access a jsp page, I get the same error at that time instead. So not much progress thus far.

Hi,

JBoss 4.0.x and 4.2.x are packaged with different implementations of JSF. I've the same problem than you, and I found the solution at http://wiki.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=JBoss5AndMyFaces.
