    Errors on Deploy

    arnieaustin

      I have been attempting to create a new Seam app based on the code generated by Seam. I then modified the code and pages, fleshed out the first page (a user login) and that part was working. Then when I tried to build the second page (the query/view results page), things when wrong:

      09:51:35,531 INFO [FacesConfigurator] Reading standard config org/apache/myfaces/resource/standard-faces-config.xml
      09:51:35,593 INFO [FacesConfigurator] Reading config jar:file:/C:/Dev/SeamDevelopment/jbossServer/server/default/lib/ui.jar!/META-INF/faces-config.xml
      09:51:37,359 INFO [FacesConfigurator] Reading config jar:file:/C:/Dev/SeamDevelopment/jbossServer/server/default/tmp/deploy/tmp8172DPSLicenseInquiry.ear-contents/jboss-seam.jar!/META-INF/faces-config.xml
      09:51:37,375 INFO [FacesConfigurator] Reading config /WEB-INF/faces-config.xml

      java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/el/ELException
       at org.apache.myfaces.application.ApplicationFactoryImpl.<init>(ApplicationFactoryImpl.java:42)
      


      followed by a:

      09:51:37,421 ERROR [StandardContext] Error listenerStart
      


      This "error listener start" is something I also get trying to create a basic JSF application and getting it to run on JBoss as well. I'm sure its something to do w/a missing or misplaced Jar but I cannot find any error messages online that help narrow it down.

      Anyone have any ideas?

          probably el-api.jar and el-ri-.jar

            Found several messages online but all were unanswered or were dead-ends.

            BUT, I found one that mentioned having to create a /META-DATA/services folder with these files that referenced the actual class names that implemented the Sun face classes. Got those built and things got a little better.

            But what's really annoying, is that another message gave me a hint that worked:

            deploy\jbossweb-tomcat55.sar\jsf-libs

            I had to put, all the JSF related files in that folder for things to come together. That included: commons-*, jsf-facelets, jsf-impl, jstl, myfaces-*

            Don't know WHY but at least I'm beyond that problem.
