    EntityManager is null if network disconnected

    phantom

      Please help me.
      I encounted with quite strange error: if I run my application with network connected everything is OK, but if network is disconnected I recieve null (if a use getEntityManager in Entitycontroller) or message that @In mmay not be initiated because entity manager is null (if I use @In private EntityManager structure).


      Please help me - I can't develop my application offline.


      Jboss AS: 4.2.2

            Could you post the full stack trace? Could be some xml schema file it tries to fetch online(?)

              All was copied from examples. I don't know the reason of this strange bug, because, let me note, everything work OK if network connected.

                It's probably due to the fact that you're using Seam 2.0.1 but your components.xml is using the schemas from 1.2. As Nicklas said it's trying to load the schemas over the net because it doesn't have them in the local JARs.


                Change your components.xml:


                http://jboss.com/products/seam/components http://jboss.com/products/seam/components-2.0.xsd"
                etc


                Cheers,


                Damian.

                  But let me note, that this exception rendered on default tomcat error page - not on the debug page of Seam. (Debug mode in Seame is enabled.)
                  Before it occur if there were some problems with deploing Resource Servlet of the seam....

                    Show all errors and stack traces you can, they can be a indication of some other problem...

                      I fix the problem. Thank you!


                      The reason was incorrect (old style) header in pages.xml due to following exception occur:

                      For someone it may be interesting how to upgrade from 1.2 to 2.0.1 (post on russian language) : http://dblogs.ru/2008/03/22/upgrade-jboss-seam-from-12-to-2/
                      There are my problems discribed during upgrade

                        Could you (or someone else who solved the problem) please post your pages.xml headers? The link to the russian page seams to be dead, and I get the same errors as you had before your fix. As far as I can tell my pages.xml contains the same headers as the ones from the eaxmples i downloaded with seam 2.0.3.CR1:



                        |<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
                           <pages xmlns="http://jboss.com/products/seam/pages"

                        |



                        My components.xml headers are also similar to the examples:

                          Have you tried to connect to the database using plain JDBC (for example using Sql Squirrel if the problem is only happening when the network is disconnected maybe the problem is at the JDBC level. Are you working on windows? (If so you may need to install the Microsoft Loopback Adapter, maybe postgresql needs it)
