------------------------------------

             Summary: javax.faces:jsf.js cannot anymore be found
                 Key: TOMEE-3807
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TOMEE-3807
             Project: TomEE
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 8.0.7
            Reporter: Bauke Scholtz


Since: 

TomEE 8.0.7 (8.0.8 is also affected; 8.0.6 was latest which worked fine).

 

Problem:

JSF API resources have a wrong library name in `/lib/myfaces-api-2.3.9.jar/META-INF/resources` folder. It's named `jakarta.faces` as per JSF 3.x instead of `javax.faces` as per JSF 2.x.

 

Consequence:

Anytime a component needs to auto-include the `javax.faces:jsf.js` script file such as `<h:commandLink>` or `<f:ajax>`, then it couldn't be found in the JAR and ultimately the following exception is thrown:

```

java.lang.NullPointerException java.lang.NullPointerException at org.apache.myfaces.shared.renderkit.html.util.ResourceUtils.renderDefaultJsfJsInlineIfNecessary(ResourceUtils.java:183) at org.apache.myfaces.shared.renderkit.html.HtmlButtonRendererBase.encodeBegin(HtmlButtonRendererBase.java:135)

```

 

Solution: fix TomEE build system to not rename the `javax.faces` library name to `jakarta.faces` as long as JSF 2.x is still used instead of JSF 3.x or newer.
