s:fileUpload when used along with h:selectOneMenu

james_hays Jun 1, 2007 4:39 PM

I'm hoping somebody can shed some light on this issue. I've had a frustrating battle with this off and on for a few days now. The issue, it appears, is intermittent. It works sometimes, and others it blows up.

I have a form that has an <h:selectOneMenu and an <s:fileUpload. If I only makes changes to one or the other element, the submit works fine. If I choose an item from the menu AND choose a file, I will sometimes get this stack dump.

Sometimes it works though... Same process to getting to the form. The stack tells me that productRecord is null and can't be outjected. The question is why is it null? It shouldn't be.

Here is the relevant html:

<h:form enctype="multipart/form-data">
 <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="2" border="0" style="font-size: 13px">
 <tr>
 <td colspan="2">
 <label>Product Status:</label>
 <h:selectOneMenu id="productStatus" value="#{productRecord.productStatus}">
 <s:selectItems value="#{productManagement.productStatuses}"
 var="productStatus"
 label="#{productStatus.name}" noSelectionLabel="-- None --"/>
 <ec:convertEntity/>
 </h:selectOneMenu>
 </td>
 </tr>
 <tr>
 <td colspan="2"> </td>
 </tr>
 <tr>
 <td colspan="4">
 <rich:togglePanel value="#{productManagement.editMode}" switchType="client"
 id="editToggle" stateOrder="fileMode,locationMode">
 <f:facet name="fileMode">
 <h:panelGroup>
 <table>
 <tr>
 <td style="font-size: 12px" colspan="4">
 <span style="padding-right: 4px"><label>Switch Edit
 Mode:</label></span>
 <rich:toggleControl for="editToggle"
 value="Enter File Location"/>
 <br/><br/>
 </td>
 </tr>
 <tr>
 <td>
 <label for="fileChooser">Choose Your File:</label>
 </td>
 <td colspan="3">
 <s:fileUpload id="file"
 data="#{productManagement.fileData}"
 contentType="#{productManagement.fileContentType}"
 fileName="#{productManagement.fileName}"/>
 </td>
 </tr>
 <tr>
 <td colspan="4">
 <h5>Use the Browse button to upload your document to
 LCGM.</h5>
 </td>
 </tr>
 </table>
 </h:panelGroup>
 </f:facet>
 <f:facet name="locationMode">
 <h:panelGroup>
 <table>
 <tr>
 <td colspan="4" style="font-size: 12px">
 <span style="padding-right: 4px"><label>Switch Edit
 Mode:</label></span>
 <rich:toggleControl for="editToggle"
 value="Upload File to LCGM"/>
 <br/><br/>
 </td>
 </tr>
 <tr>
 <td>
 <label for="fileLocation">Enter File Location:</label>
 </td>
 <td align="left" colspan="3">
 <h:inputText id="fileLocation"
 value="#{productRecord.documentLocation}"
 size="50"/>
 </td>
 </tr>
 <tr>
 <td colspan="4">
 <h5>
 Copy & paste URL or type in the location of the
 document.<br/>
 Note - other users may or may not have access to
 documents on other servers.
 </h5>
 </td>
 </tr>
 </table>
 </h:panelGroup>
 </f:facet>
 </rich:togglePanel>
 </td>
 </tr>

 <tr>
 <td colspan="2"> </td>
 </tr>
 <tr>
 <td colspan="2">
 <h:commandButton styleClass="controller"
 action="#{productManagement.saveProductRecord}"
 value="Save Changes"/>
 </td>
 </tr>
 </table>
</h:form>

The page starts with the call of this action:
(this is in a SFSB running inside a conversation)

 @Out @In(required = false)
 private ProductRecord productRecord;

 @Begin(join = true)
 public void manageProductRecord(ProductRecord productRecord)
 {
 this.productRecord = productRecord;
 }

So, to recap. My page will open fine with the appropriate object. When I click on the "Save Changes" button, is when I get this error. Sometimes...

Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

James

Well, it appears as if this is a firefox issue. It works just fine in IE.

James,

Were you able to resolve the issue you identified?

I'm running across the same issue. I'm seeing this on both IE and Firefox. It is intermittent as you described, and seems to be related to other JSF objects on the page. It appears to be fine when creating a new record, and only when updating an existing record where the h:inputText fields are updated but the s:fileUpload object is left blank does it fail intermittently.

When it fails, no conversation ID is passed on the command line. Clicking the back button and then resubmitting the form will correct the issue and the restore the conversation ID.

We are running with version 1.2.1. Note: To your observation we have one page on our site that has simple h:inputText objects with the s:fileUpload object that never fails during create or update.

Thank you,

Rod

I'm not having any issues in IE, at least non that I know of. :) Firefox still causes intermittent issues. It appeared to be the way that Firefox and seam interact on the multi-part form submission. I can neither confirm nor deny this though.

So, in short. No, I have not been able to resolve this issue. Feel free to add it as a JIRA Issues though. As you can see from the active responses I got, that may be the best way to resolve it.
