The Navigation Did Not Happen! The Original Web Page is Redisplayed.

[Caroline Jen <ji...@yahoo.com>]

I do not understand why my web page does not navigate
to the next web page.

My web page "screen1" has a command button and it has
an "action" attribute.  
[code]
action="#{fileManagementBean.displaySelectedFiles}"
[/code]
The action invokes a method in the backing bean and
the method returns a String:
[code]
	public String displaySelectedFiles() 
	{
		int length = dataFile.length;
		for( int i=0; i<length; i++ ) 
		{
			selectedDataFiles.add( ( SelectItem )dataFile[i] );
		}

		return "success";
	}
[/code]
where dataFile is SelectItem[] and selectedDataFiles
is a List.

In my faces-config.xml, I have specified the
navigation rule:
[code]
 <navigation-rule>
  <from-view-id>/pages/screen1.jsp</from-view-id>
  <navigation-case>
   <from-outcome>success</from-outcome>
   <to-view-id>/pages/screen2.jsp</to-view-id>
  </navigation-case>
 </navigation-rule>
[/code]
Both screen1.jsp and screen2.jsp are in the "pages" folder.

Does the navigation works without backing-bean-call: action="success"?

Do your have only one f:page tag per page? (Last time I've seen that 
navigation problem, this was the error ;-))

Try to omit the from-view-id for testing purpose.
