Tag Library Error

mattc1 Feb 11, 2011 12:53 AM

Hello,

I am attempting to update our jsf 1.2 and richfaces 3.3 application to jsf 2.0 and richfaces 4.0 M5. Our 1.2 pages are standard jsf pages (not facelets) and I am having issues getting the pages to render. When hitting the first page we get this error:

org.apache.jasper.JasperException: The absolute uri: http://richfaces.org/a4j cannot be resolved in either web.xml or the jar files deployed with this application

The richafaces jar files are deployed in our war in the WEB-INF/lib folder.

Any help would be appreciated.

1. Tag Library Error

As far as I know JSF 2.0 works only with facelets. Facelets is a part JSF 2.0 standart now.

I have another JSF 1.2 based application that does not use richfaces and it works fine with JSF 2.0 I am pretty sure JSF2.0 supports both the facelets VDL and JFV Views. When I introduce Richfaces 4.0 to the app I get the stack trace above

Well. I see that you are right but as I found:
JSF 2.0 has retained JSP support only for backward compatibility)
I don't know if RF 4.0 support JSP pages because I have been using Facelets for too long time.
So I think RF team will better answer your question.

Thanks for your comments, I appreciate the help. We plan on moving all our pages to Facelets over time but wanted to get on JSF 2.0 and RF 4.0 for new pages in our application. We were hoping that both could co-exist as we did the migration. I'll wait for a reply from the RF team.
