Service Tracker has not been initialized? Maybe not compatible with myfaces extensions validator?

[prefabsoft]

Hi all,

I'm trying myfaces for the first time but run into trouble using a simple example in my running JSF project:

SEVERE: Error Rendering View[/views/demo.xhtml]

javax.faces.FacesException: Service Tracker has not been initialized

Looks like RichFaces is not compatible with org.apache.myfaces.extensions.validator...could that be?

All comments, suggestion more than welcome!

Best wishes,

Hi Jochen,

looks like a needed Initialization is not done. What is your Runtime (JBoss, Tomcat, other?), which RichFaces Version do you use, and how does your web.xml look like?

Best regards,

Mark

Hello Mark,

Thanks for the fast reply! Really appreciate your feedback.

I just dropped Richfaces into my current JSF project which is actually backed by Spring...and haven't done any explicit initialization for Richfaces indeed. I guess this isn't the most straight forward setup, but I already got the primefaces lib running succesfully (more or less) in this project, and I've read online somehere that Rich- and Primefaces should run nicely hand in hand...so this is what I was trying to accomplish...

Will post my web.xml and faces-config.xml down below:

Thanks a lot in advance and best wishes,

EDIT: Oh yeah, and my server is a Tomcat 7 (VMWare vFabric tc Server Developer Edition to be precise)

Hi Jochen,

your config is fine. Richfaces is initialized by the ConfigureListener. I don't have an idea, what else could be wrong (have you tried without MyFaces?). To skip the Exception (but I don't know if it will work then) you could easily prepare an own ContextListener where you call:

ServiceTracker.setFactory(new ServicesFactoryImpl());

Best regards,

Mark

[ilya_shaikovsky]

you talking about myFAces  but using a few mojara definitions in web.bxml.. maybe that's the case? and in general maybe you mixed both impl jars? That's should not be used like that.
