MyFaces 1.2 issue

[Parag Shah <ad...@gmail.com>]

Hello,

I am using MyFaces 1.2 core jars for a webapp on Tomcat 6.0 (deployed from
within MyEclipse & Eclipse Europa).

The problem is, when the app is started, I get a NullPointerException. The
cause seems to be in these 2 lines (not including all the exception
details):

<2007/07/26 12:17:52>  DEBUG (main).
org.apache.myfaces.webapp.DefaultFacesInitializer.initFaces(
DefaultFacesInitializer.java:100) - jspfactory = null
<2007/07/26 12:17:52>  ERROR (main).
org.apache.myfaces.webapp.DefaultFacesInitializer.initFaces(
DefaultFacesInitializer.java:126) - Error initializing MyFaces: null

My web.xml uses webapp version "2.5" and the relevant xsd.

Here's the version related line from my faces-config

<faces-config version="1.2" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee"
    xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"
    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/web-facesconfig_1_2.xsd">

Would anyone have a clue what exactly is the JSPFactory and likely reasons
why it cannot be found. If I have some leads, I'll probably go hunting in
the code.

Thanks, it worked... it was the jar dependencies.

Additionally, I just added a temporary packing, for the latest codebase,
it seems like the value binding error, some people were discovering
has been fixed already,
give the temporary packing a try if it fixes your problem as well.
you can download it from:
http://people.apache.org/~werpu/myfaces12custom.zip
This is more or less the latest nightly build + a missing jar
in the standard packing.
Both issues this one fixes will be resolved by the next version.

This is most likely some kind of jar issue, with an old dependency,
Without further information (web.xml, and jars in the lib dir)
it is hard to tell:

Get one of those wars
http://people.apache.org/~werpu/

they are sample applications packed for myfaces 1.2
(there is a slight packing error, once unpacked remove the jstl 1.1 jar)

They work on Tomcat 6 and should give a good indication on what to pack.
