message severity="ERROR" doesn't work

[rhomber]

Hey,

  This has been driving me nuts, so I hope someone here can help. I have implemented a special exception that is thrown when the back end is experiencing problems. I have added a handler for the exception but the messages aren't being displayed properly. If I remove the severity setting it works, but if I leave it as ERROR it doesn't show up at all. I have tried various combinations and I am not sure what is causing the issue.

pages.xml:

    <exception class="com.utiba.wt.ugaml.exception.UGAMLSystemErrorException">
        <redirect view-id="/error.xhtml">
            <message severity="warn">Error: #{messages['com.utiba.wt.ugaml.exception.UGAMLSystemErrorException']}</message>
        </redirect>
    </exception>

error.xhtml:

<!DOCTYPE composition PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
        "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<ui:composition xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
                xmlns:s="http://jboss.com/products/seam/taglib"
                xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets"
                xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"
                xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"
                xmlns:rich="http://richfaces.org/rich"
                template="/WEB-INF/templates/layout/template.xhtml">

    <ui:define name="body">

        <rich:panel>
            <f:facet name="header">Error(s)</f:facet>

            <h:messages globalOnly="true"/>

        </rich:panel>

    </ui:define>
</ui:composition>

In the above example I have tried with globalOnly enabled and disabled. Neither worked. I should point out the exception is being thrown in the middle of a jdPL page flow, will this have any impact?

Any ideas what I may be doing wrong?

Cheers,

David

Any ideas people? I will try and upgrade to the new version of Seam today and see if that helps.. but if anyone has an idea please let me know :)

Hi!

I'm having the same problem with my app.

According to the definition in my pages.xml file:

    <exception class="org.jboss.seam.security.AuthorizationException">
         <end-conversation/>
        <redirect view-id="/error.xhtml">
            <message severity="WARN">Authorization exception</message>
        </redirect>
    </exception>

I should be redirected to /error.xhtml and get that message with WARN severity.

But what happens is that I get redirected to /error.xhtml page, but the message does not appear.

Also, I get this message on my log:

2008-06-04 17:01:12,043 ERROR [org.jboss.seam.jsf.SeamPhaseListener] uncaught exception
org.jboss.seam.security.AuthorizationException: Authorization check failed for expression [#{sdsAuth.canManageSystemMaintenance}]

Does this happens to you too?
Have you been able to overcome this issue?
