richfaces + websphere 7 problem

uterr Aug 5, 2009 6:51 AM

Good day!
We have a problem deploying simplest richfaces project on WAS 7
Our sample app, that works on tomcat 6, Websphere CE, but not on WAS 7:

http://issystems.com.ua/downloads/test.war

Problem is deployment takes up to 10 minutes 100% processor time. Application can be started in WAS, but when we try to open it, it freezes forever and takes 100% processor time too

meanwhile, richfaces-demo-3.3.1.GA.war sample runs fine on WAS 7 (and on tomcat 6 whith minor changes)

we would like our application to run on WAS 7

So, explore what are the difference between applications ? dependencies? web.xml?

richfaces-demo-3.3.1.GA.war uses seam, ant, hibernate, (and cannot be compared in direct way)
which we dont want to use in our application, structure of this applications pretty different

or richfaces demands some of these to run on WAS7?

remove duplicated org.ajax4jsf.Filter definition.
and seems the problem in missing some el- dependencies..

thanx, we deleted org.ajax4jsf.Filter duplication and added el-api-1.0.jar and el-impl-1.0.jar, but still "'rich:clientId' not found" appears
what el-dependencies we may be missing?

hi band, i have a problem runing richfaces 3.3.2 SR1 on was 7.0.0.7

my code is
                    <a4j:outputPanel id="pnlBroker" rendered="#{ExistBean.existBroker}" >
                        <h:selectOneMenu id="cboListBroker" value="#{ClientBean.broker}">
                            <f:selectItem itemLabel="Selecciona un broker"></f:selectItem>
                            <f:selectItems id="itmBroker" value="#{BrokerList.brokerList}"></f:selectItems>
                            <a4j:support event="onchange" action="#{ClientBean.updateProd}" reRender="pnlProduct"/>
                        </h:selectOneMenu>
                    </a4j:outputPanel>

                    <a4j:outputPanel id="pnlProduct" >
                        <h:selectOneMenu id="cboListProd" value="#{ClientBean.product}">
                            <f:selectItem itemLabel="Selecciona un producto"></f:selectItem>
                            <f:selectItems value="#{ProductList.productList}"></f:selectItems>
                        </h:selectOneMenu>
                    </a4j:outputPanel>

when the action ClientBean.updateProd is called all is ok but when intent back the reRender pnlProduct doesnt work, because dont actualize the component with the id = pnlProduct

the trace:

[26/03/10 17:27:23:781 CST] 00000018 AjaxContext   W org.ajax4jsf.context.AjaxContextImpl convertId Target component for id pnlProduct not found

Hi All,

I have similar problem to the posted one. on Websphere 7 the application runs well on JBOSS and Tomcat. Any Ideas what might be causing it???

Error 500: javax.el.ELException: Function 'rich:component' not found

Take a look at http://community.jboss.org/message/516153 because I guess that your problem is in JSF implementation.
P.S. The better way to post your problem is a creating of a new question on this forum with some links to related discussions. Because it can actually be not the same.

Hi Again,

   I have checked the URL u posted and yes this will fix the rich:component issue but will generate another error

   Error 500: javax.el.ELException: Function 'rich:element' not found.
    since i am using also "<rich:hotKey key="return" handler="#{rich:element('hideLangPanellId')}.click()" />"

   I think it is related to el-jars compatibility with Websphere!! any help on this ???

Regards,
Ram

ilya40umov Jan 13, 2011 6:24 AM (in response to ramram888)

1) You can try to avoid any usages of rich:element in your app. Using of jsFunction can help you to perform the same as clicking on hideLangPanellId.
2) You can try to use some other JSF impl with EL impl instead of using WebSphere's. Is it an appropriate solution?

ramram888 Jan 13, 2011 6:39 AM (in response to ilya40umov)

I think I will go with the second advise.
But I faced many excpetions when trying to put the el-api.jar in the class path I had this exception
Class 'org.richfaces.component.ClonedObjectResolver' is not an instance of 'class javax.el.ELResolver'

If I added the jsf-impl.jar and jsf-api.jar another exception appears
java.lang.VerifyError: javax/servlet/jsp/JspApplicationContext.addELResolver(Ljavax/el/ELResolver;)V

What do u think??? how can this be fixed ???
What is the jars that must be places and compatible with WAS 7.0 jars that will make the application function normally as it does on the JBOSS and TOMCAT?
