    All actions executed twice

      Hello,


      I have posted about this problem before, but I have new information available on it and I am hoping at some point someone will be able to give me a clue on this one.


      I am using seam 1.2.1 on JBoss 4.0.5.


      All the actions in my application are executed twice, whether I call them using an h:commandButton, an s:button, an s:link, ...


      I have added a phaseTracker to retrieve some information about the request, and I actually see the whole request cycle being execute twice.


      Below is the log trace of a post with validation errors.

      Now there are some weird things:



      • The JSF lifecycle is execute twice. See the messages from my phaseTracker (implements PhaseListener) 'AFTER...' and 'BEFORE...'

      • The current locale (which should be 'nl') is not the same for both cycles. I've added the current locale in the log messages of the PhaseTracker. To retrieve the locale in the PhaseListener, I use facesContext.viewRoot.getLocale.

      • The MessageListener (see messages preceded with 'MessageListener - ' doesn't find the same information in the second cycle: no values are returned from 'facesContext.getClientIdsWithMessages', so it's seems like no validation errors have occured in the second cycle.



      If anyone could shed a light on this or help me in finding out more about this problem, I would be very grateful.


      Cheers.

          Hello,


          finally I've been able to find out what was wrong.
          While all the time I was thinking something was wrong with my seam configuration (some phaselistener called twice or some library initialized twice), it was much simpler than that.
          My .seam actions were called twice by the browser: once by the initial request, a second time to retrieve an image that had an empty url, which caused a reload of the same page that was initially called. And since that image was located in the header of my page, I had the same problem on all my pages.


          Phew, I'm glad this on's resolved. Costed me quite a few hours.


          Cheers.

            Can you elaborate on what you meant by an image that had an empty url?


            I too have this problem with actions executed twice. I have several images on the page, all do not have any URL associated with the images (aka no 

            url="..."

            ever specified). For example, I have the following codes:



            <h:commandLink action="#{wcFileMenu.gotoWcHome}" title="#{messages['hdr.compLogo.title']}" >
     <h:graphicImage value="/img/client_hdr_logo.gif" width="41" height="40" alt="#{messages['hdr.compLogo.title']}" border="0" />
</h:commandLink>



            which rendered the following HTML


            <a href="#" title="Judo Systems" onclick="if(typeof jsfcljs == 'function'){jsfcljs(document.forms['j_id6'],'j_id6:j_id9,j_id6:j_id9','');}return false"><img src="/trading/img/client_hdr_logo.gif" alt="Judo Systems" border="0" height="40" width="41" /></a></td><td class="dr-toolbar-int rich-toolbar-item ">



            Also, I use RichFaces's 


            <rich:spacer height="10" />



            which renders the following HTML


            <img class="rich-spacer " height="2" id="j_id6:j_id33" src="/trading/a4j_3_2_0-SNAPSHOTimages/spacer.gif" width="1" />



            This page seems to be called twice. Could it be a problem with my image?


            Thanks for your help.

              Hello Tony,


              with an empty url I meant an empty src attribute. The image in the final html page was


              When the browser tried to retrieve the image, it just called my page again.


              Hope this helps.

                Hi Tony,


                I meant to include an example of my image tag, but failed to save it (man I hate this editor :-()



                <img src='' alt='my alt text' ... />



                Cheers.
