ICEfaces Forums

Dear all,

I begin ICEfaces.

And now before beginning tutoriel about ICEfaces (the timezone), I run
the ICEfaces Sample Applications.
My configuration is:

- Tomcat 5.5.26
- ICEfaces-1.7.1

I just copy the example provided in the ICEfaces samples directory ( address and auctionMonitor) to the webapps directory of Tomcat
It doesn't work, i had following exception:

Jul 3, 2008 5:19:57 PM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext listenerStart
SEVERE: Error configuring application listener of class com.sun.faces.config.ConfigureListener
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/el/ExpressionFactory

at java.lang.Class.privateGetDeclaredConstructors(Unknown Source)
at java.lang.Class.getConstructor0(Unknown Source)
at java.lang.Class.newInstance0(Unknown Source)
at java.lang.Class.newInstance(Unknown Source)

Thanks in advance for your help.

dear all,

can you give me some tips about a way to run example provided by ICEfaces, i follow the documentation about copy war files to the tomcat webapps directory but it doesn't work....

What i don't understand is:
The following line is displayed in the web.xml of each project:

<listener-class>com.icesoft.faces.util.event.servlet.ContextEventRepeater</listener-class>

should be enough or not?

or i need to put it also in the web.xml of Tomcat?

or need to add another listener:
for com.sun.faces.config.ConfigureListener?

check to see if el-api.jar exists. el-api.jar/el-impl.jar is required on Tomcat 5.5

should be el-ri.jar instead of el-impl.jar

Thank you for your reply but where I put these libraries?

Same place as ICEfaces.jar

It works at present for me and I can study this example.
Sorry to waste time with this sort of questions, but I begin and i had no idea about useful libraries.

Now I have quiet often problem with expired session but this problem is know.
Thanks for your help.

Hi,

If you build the auction-monitor sample app. using the ant target for tomcat 5.5., the resulting .war file should work fine in Tomcat 5.5. without further alterations.

See the "Getting Started Guide" for details.
