3.2.0.GA - not working for me

[serlank]

Hi,

I'm using RichFaces 3.2.0.GA with Sun RI 1.2_07 on Tomcat 6, but when I deploy my application, I get the following exception :

ERROR : Exception sending context initialized event to listener instance of class com.sun.faces.config.ConfigureListener

When I use 3.1.4.GA everything works fine. Any ideas?

[steven.whatmore]

Did you do a clean of the Tomcat (project) directory?

[serlank]

Just cleaned the temp and work dirs, but I'm still getting the same error.

[sergeysmirnov]

post list of jar files you have in the WEB-INF/lib. If you have a additional libs shared in the Tomcat shared lib folder, mentioned them too. (Additional means the ones that are not shipped with Tomcat itself)

[serlank]

I have switched to myfaces 1.2.2 and now it's working great.

[sergeysmirnov]

Do you mean you switched to myfaces 1.2.2 from Sun RI 1.2_07 ?

[serlank]

Yes.

[ilya_shaikovsky]

anyway could you please give us detailed environment? Look through Sergey's post and attach web.xml also. Non worked version of course..

Will be very helpfull.

Thanks for the help.

Could you please delete server log, run the server and then post the complete log somewhere?

[serlank]

No problem, you can have a look at http://www.erlank.co.za/tomcat.log

I have set org.ajax4jsf and org.richfaces to debug level, everything else is info.

[nbelaevski]

Unfortunately nothing useful :( Could you please post your war file somewhere?

[serlank]

Had a look at it again, seems the orginal exception was swallowed, turns out to be a NoClassDefFoundError.

Just had to include commons-collections-3.2 in my pom.xml.
