Richfaces and Facelets

[struzik]

Hi --

I've tried every just about every combination, but I can't get .xhtml files to render in my Richfaces environment.  Can someone please post working config (web.xml, faces-config.xml) files and what libraries you are using?  I am using the following libraries.  I am unable to use the ui:composition tags because of this. 

commons-beanutils-1.7.0.jar

commons-collections-3.2.jar

commons-digester-1.8.jar

commons-logging-1.0.4.jar

jhighlight-1.0.jar

jsf-facelets.jar

ojdbc6.jar

richfaces-api-3.3.2.SR1.jar

richfaces-impl-3.3.2.SR1.jar

richfaces-ui-3.3.2.SR1.jar

I have attached my config files.

You don't have Facelets configured in faces-config.xml.

<application>
  <view-handler>com.sun.facelets.FaceletViewHandler</view-handler>
 </application>

You can also try this template that has RichFaces configured: http://mkblog.exadel.com/ria/richfaces-ria/the-easiest-way-to-start-with-richfaces/

Thanks, Max.  When I substitute the *.xml files in your example for mine, if I try to call test.jsp I get the following: 

HTTP Status 500 -

note The full stack trace of the root cause is available in the  JBoss Web/2.1.3.GA logs.

If I call it as test.jsf I get this:

Again, thanks for your help.

you should use xhtml or jspx syntax to define facelets pages (check facelets docs)

[struzik]

Thanks for the suggestions.  Max, I was able to get your example working, but on JBoss I'm getting this error:

SEVERE [application] JSF1029: The specified InjectionProvider implementation 'org.jboss.web.jsf.integration.injection.JBossDelegatingInjectionProvider' does not implement the InjectionProvider interface.

I am trying to do is run some of the examples from the demo that include both RichFaces & Facelets (like the wizard) on JBoss 5.1.0.GA.

Thanks again.

The template is for Tomcat. I don't know if that's the cause of the problem but the template has JSF libraries and JBoss AS also has them. You need to remove them from the template.

It took a little digging, but this helped:

thanks again for your help.

Hey Tom,

So was this all you did to get your JSF 2.0 project to  deploy under JBoss AS 5.1 ?

I've commented out the bits as suggested in the link you posted but continue to get deployment errors concerning what appear to be related issues to JSF.

regards,

Karl

one more question, Max:  if tried several different configurations but I can't seem to get both JSF pages and XHTML pages to be served simultaneously.  From what I've read this is possible, if not common.  Given your example, can you tell me what changes need to be made?  Or is this a limitation of JBoss 5.1.0?  thanks!

[struzik]

Hi Karl -- as I noted, I can't get JSF and Facelets to work on JBoss 5.1.0, but those changes I mentioned fixed the other problems I was having.

[ilya_shaikovsky]

the problems with Jboss could be also caused for example by the fact that the AS contains JSF implementation,. So you should either remove lsf librarites from application or use parameters for jboss to use application bundled ones.
