rich:Messages does not display messages

pbaker01 Oct 13, 2007 1:09 PM

I have a situation where a rich:messages component does not display my messages but an h:message component will display the messages. Why?

<html xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets"
 xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"
 xmlns:rich="http://richfaces.ajax4jsf.org/rich"
 xmlns:c="http://java.sun.com/jstl/core"
 xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core">

 <h:panelGrid border="0" columns="1" style="width:100%">
 <h:form>
 <center>
 <h1>
 Airline List
 </h1>
 </center>

 <rich:messages layout="list" infoClass="msgInfoText"
 errorClass="msgErrorText" fatalClass="msgFatalText">
 <f:facet name="infoMarker">
 <h:graphicImage value="/images/GreenFlag.gif" />
 </f:facet>
 <f:facet name="errorMarker">
 <h:graphicImage value="/images/Exclamation.gif" />
 </f:facet>
 </rich:messages>

 <center>
 <rich:datascroller for="airlineList" maxPages="50" />
 <rich:spacer height="10" />
 <rich:dataTable id="airlineList" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"
 border="0" rows="10" var="next" value="#{commonData.airlineList}">

 <f:facet name="header">
 <rich:columnGroup>
 <h:column>
 <h:outputText value="Update" />
 </h:column>
 <h:column>
 <h:outputText value="Delete" />
 </h:column>
 <h:column>
 <h:outputText value="Airline Code" />
 </h:column>
 <h:column>
 <h:outputText value="Airline Name" />
 </h:column>
 </rich:columnGroup>
 </f:facet>

 <h:column>
 <h:commandLink action="#{cmnMenuData.updateAirline}">
 <f:param name="id" value="#{next.id}"></f:param>
 <h:outputText value="upd"></h:outputText>
 </h:commandLink>
 </h:column>
 <h:column>
 <h:commandLink action="#{cmnMenuData.deleteAirline}">
 <f:param name="id" value="#{next.id}"></f:param>
 <h:outputText value="del"></h:outputText>
 </h:commandLink>
 </h:column>
 <h:column>
 <h:outputText value="#{next.code}"></h:outputText>
 </h:column>
 <h:column>
 <h:outputText value="#{next.name}"></h:outputText>
 </h:column>
 </rich:dataTable>
 <br />
 <h:commandLink value="Create Airline"
 action="#{cmnMenuData.createAirline}" styleClass="commandlink" />
 </center>
 </h:form>
 </h:panelGrid>
</html>

When I change the message component to use h:messages the messages are displayed. What would cause this behavior?

<h:messages layout="list" infoClass="msgInfoText"
 errorClass="msgErrorText" fatalClass="msgFatalText">
 <f:facet name="infoMarker">
 <h:graphicImage value="/images/GreenFlag.gif" />
 </f:facet>
 <f:facet name="errorMarker">
 <h:graphicImage value="/images/Exclamation.gif" />
 </f:facet>
</h:messages>

I'm creating the message as follows:

FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().addMessage(null, new FacesMessage(FacesMessage.SEVERITY_INFO, "Airline Created", null));

Complete method:

public String createAirline() {
 TravelPartnerReq req = new TravelPartnerReq();
 req.setTravelPartner(airline);

 try{
 ServiceLocator.getInstance().getCommonDataEjbRemoteStub().createTravelPartner(req);
 menuState.setSelectedMenuItem(MenuConstants.CMNFeatureCommonData, MenuConstants.CMNDTAMenuViewAirline);
 FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().addMessage(null, new FacesMessage(FacesMessage.SEVERITY_INFO, "Airline Created", null));
 this.setAirline(new AirlineImpl());
 JsfUtils.getInstance().setManagedBean("airline", this.airline);
 return null;
 } catch (NamingException e) {
 e.printStackTrace();
 return null;
 } catch (RecordExistsException e) {
 FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().addMessage(null, new FacesMessage(FacesMessage.SEVERITY_ERROR, "Duplicate Airline", null));
 e.printStackTrace();
 return null;
 }
}

Can't reproduce this bug. Could you attach simple war with app?
