    Having problems with quality of distributions

    jwooten

      Just downloaded and installed

      jboss-4.2.2.GA app server and
      jboss-seam-2.0.0.GA

      Then followed instructions to cd to examples/contactlist and do ant.
      did so.

      did http://localhost:8080/seam-contactlist after starting server. Viewed a list of contacts,
      BUT when trying to add a new contact. DOESN'T WORK!


      I'm trying to learn how to do this, but can't because the examples don't work.

      Please try to test the examples and be sure they work. They serve as the starting place for some of us.

          What exactly do you mean by "DOESN"T WORK"? Did you receive some sort of error message? Also did you follow the instructions in the examples/readme.txt file of the Seam distribution?

            The seam-contactlist example would not create a new contact using Safari on Mac Leopard. Followed all examples explicitly. The seam-booking actually crashed the Safari browser when trying to register.

            NOW, I have found that using Firefox browser, both seam-booking and seam-contact list seem to work correctly.

            You should probably add something about verifying that the problem is not a browser problem by trying other browsers. At least on my Leopard 10.5.1
            Safari browser crashes when trying some examples and others just don't work, (i.e. clicking on create does nothing in the seam-contactlist)

            Windoze explorer(on mac Leopard 10.5.1) does not work correctly either mostly by not locating the web application. I.e. //http://localhost:8080/seam-booking/ gives me a 404 error.

                I have a lot of problems (randomly not loading pages) with Safari on 10.4 - I tend to avoid it.

                  Is anyone else having as much trouble getting very simple JBoss Seam things to work? I'm using JBoss 4.2.2.GA and jboss-seam-2.0.0.GA.

                  I finally got my first simple seam setup/new-project/explode to actually run! I then try:

                  seam new-entity, enter Person, take defaults. It creates things!
                  It says type seam restart, and go to http://localhost:8080/step_2/seam.personList and I do.

                  I get

                  javax.el.ELException: /personList.xhtml @21,67 rendered="#{empty personList.resultList}": Error reading 'resultList' on type com.shoulderscorp.step2.PersonList_$$_javassist_0

                  Now why, if I follow the example instructions should it fail?

                    Unfortunately there was small bug in seam-gen in 2.0.0.GA that caused this to happen. You just need to fix the code manually.
