JBoss AS 7.0.2 and JSF migration
Hi all,
I'm currently given the taks to do some upgrades. We are using JBoss AS 7.0.2, Seam 2.2.2, JSF 1.2 and Richfaces 3 and the goal is to migrate to Seam 2.3.0, JSF 2.x and Richfaces 4.
Unfortunately, Seam and JSF have to be done at the same time. I think I'm currently having a problem with JBoss and JSF. What I did so far is change the jar files inside the project and did some configuration changes according to the seam migration guide http://docs.jboss.org/seam/2.3.0.Final/reference/en-US/html/migration23.html
Then, the server was starting but if I tried to load a page, it gives only 500 Internal Server Error and an exception about a missing method in JSF. So I found out that the JSF used within JBoss is still 1.2 and did some changes in the jboss-deployment-structure.xml that previously included dependencies on jsf 1.2 and exclusions of the main slot. It now looks like this:
<jboss-deployment-structure xmlns="urn:jboss:deployment-structure:1.0"> <deployment> <exclusions> <module name="javax.faces.api" slot="1.2"/> <module name="com.sun.jsf-impl" slot="1.2"/> </exclusions> <dependencies> <module name="org.dom4j" export="true"/> <module name="org.apache.commons.collections" export="true"/> <module name="org.codehaus.jackson.jackson-core-asl" export="true" slot="main"/> <module name="org.codehaus.jackson.jackson-mapper-asl" export="true" slot="main"/> <module name="javax.faces.api" export="true" slot="main"/> <module name="com.sun.jsf-impl" export="true" slot="main"/> <module name="org.jboss.as.jpa.spi" export="true"/> <module name="org.antlr" export="true"/> <module name="org.slf4j" export="false"/> <module name="org.jboss.common-core" export="true"/> </dependencies> </deployment> <sub-deployment name="*name*-ejb.jar"> <dependencies> <!-- need this since the war file has its own classloader and the jar can otherwise not see classes within the war, such as the messages properties --> <module name="deployment.infonds3.ear.infonds3-web.war" /> </dependencies> </sub-deployment> <sub-deployment name="*name*-web.war"> <exclusions> <module name="javax.faces.api" slot="1.2"/> <module name="com.sun.jsf-impl" slot="1.2"/> </exclusions> <dependencies> <module name="javax.faces.api" slot="main"/> <module name="com.sun.jsf-impl" slot="main"/> </dependencies> </sub-deployment> </jboss-deployment-structure>
But now I get the following exceptions when I start the server:

Does anyone know where the problem is? I've tried what not - different jar files, putting the same ones from the jboss jsf module in the project, changing the deployment structure in various ways, adding some stuff to web.xml I found while searching for the solution:
<context-param> <param-name>org.ajax4jsf.VIEW_HANDLERS</param-name> <param-value>com.sun.facelets.FaceletViewHandler</param-value> </context-param> <context-param> <param-name>org.jboss.jbossfaces.WAR_BUNDLES_JSF_IMPL</param-name> <param-value>true</param-value> </context-param>
PS: I've deleted the name of the company/product from the code/output as I'm not sure what I'm allowed to share here.
