ICEsoft.org Forums: ICEfaces, ICEmobile, ICEpdf

Hi all,
I posted question to Seam forum but it looks they can't tell me...:/
I have problem with integration Seam and Ice Faces. Like in booking example in seam i created new app project and following configuration can't load libraries, question is why?
Here is my problem:

Code:

 23:06:00,708 WARN  [ServiceController] Problem creating service jboss.j2ee:service=EJB3,module=exper

and

     <module>
         <java>el-ri.jar</java>
     </module>

also in war file/WEB-INF/lib/ have following libs
Code:

 commons-fileupload.jar 
 icefaces.jar 
 icefaces-comps.jar
 icefaces-facelets.jar 
 jboss-seam-debug.jar 
 jboss-seam-ui.jar 
 oscache-2.3.2.jar

finally I setted true in
\server\default\deploy\jbossweb-tomcat55.sar\META-INF
jboss-service.xml

seam booking example working fine, but my new project created based on booking can't load libs, why?
Can anyone help me?

Hi,

it seems as if you need to access the icefaces components inside your beans. In this case you have to modify your application.xml to llok like...

Code:

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
 <application xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee" 
              xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
              xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/application_5.xsd"
              version="5">
     
    <display-name>Seam Generated Application</display-name>
 
    <module>
       <web>
          <web-uri>app.war</web-uri>
          <context-root>/app</context-root>
       </web>
    </module>
    <module>
        <java>jboss-seam.jar</java>
    </module>   
    <module>
       <ejb>app.jar</ejb>
    </module>   
    <module>
       <java>jbpm-3.1.2.jar</java>
    </module>
    <module>
       <java>el-api.jar</java>
    </module>
    <module>
       <java>el-ri.jar</java>
    </module>
    <module>
       <java>icefaces-facelets.jar</java>
    </module>
    <module>
       <java>icefaces.jar</java>
    </module>
    <module>
       <java>icefaces-comps.jar</java>
    </module>
    <module>
       <java>commons-fileupload.jar</java>
    </module>    
 </application>

then move the icefaces libs inside your lib folder inside your project and modify your build.xml around line 112 (target ear) and modify it to look like...

Code:

 	<target name="ear" description="Build the EAR">
 		<copy todir="${ear.dir}">
 			<fileset dir="${basedir}/resources">
 				<include name="*jpdl.xml" />
 				<include name="hibernate.cfg.xml" />
 				<include name="jbpm.cfg.xml" />
 			</fileset>
 			<fileset dir="${lib.dir}">
 				<include name="jboss-seam.jar" />
 				<include name="jbpm*.jar" />
 				<include name="el-*.jar" />
 			    <include name="icefaces*.jar" />
 			    <include name="commons-fileupload.jar" />
 			</fileset>
 		</copy>
 		<copy todir="${ear.dir}/META-INF">
 			<fileset dir="${basedir}/resources/META-INF">
 				<include name="application.xml" />
 				<include name="jboss-app.xml" />
 			</fileset>
 		</copy>
 	</target>

Kind regards

Juergen

You need to go into Code:

jboss-4.0.5.GA\server\default\deploy\jbossweb-tomcat55.sar\META-INF\jboss-service.xml

and change the following line:Code:

<attribute name="UseJBossWebLoader">false</attribute>

to: Code:

<attribute name="UseJBossWebLoader">true</attribute>

This problem was discussed in Seam forum.

Hi san_gu,

i Think he already did this:

finally I setted true in
\server\default\deploy\jbossweb-tomcat55.sar\META-INF
jboss-service.xml

Kind regards

Juergen

I have the same problem. Has anyone solved this problem?
I've tried many variations of moving icefaces jars as well as myfaces jars
around in my project and in jboss.
Any ideas? Or does this need to be added to the JIRA?

JR

Hi JR,

Have you added the icefaces jars to the application.xml file?

Philip

Hi Philip,

Yes, I have added the icefaces jars:

Code:

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

 		</web>
 	</module>

  	<module>
 		<java>dfc.jar</java>
 	</module>
 	<module>
 		<java>dfcbase.jar</java>
 	</module>
 </application>

And I get this error when trying to load my login page:

I'm using the latest production icefaces and seam.
Is there a way to fix this?

JR

Try extracting the tld files from the icefaces-comps.jar and sticking them in your war file's WEB-INF directory.

That worked. Thanks!

I have verified this workaround with a test application. UseJBossWebLoader is a server-specific, global change to classloading. Any feedback on whether applying this setting is acceptable long-term?

"UseJBossWebLoader" is not necessary, provided that the ICEfaces jars are not included in the WEB-INF/lib of the web application.

If you are using Seam, you may also need to move the jboss-seam-ui and jboss-seam-debug jars, which means you have to extract the taglib.tld, which causes this unpleasant side effect in eclipse:

Code:

Invalid content was found starting with element 'description'. One of '{"http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee":type}' is expected.
