Struts-faces renders blank pages when refreshing page.

           Summary: Struts-faces renders blank pages when refreshing page.
           Product: Struts
           Version: 1.1 Final
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Major
          Priority: Other
         Component: Struts-Faces Library
        AssignedTo: dev@struts.apache.org
        ReportedBy: fredrik@collabra.se


I downloaded the latest struts-faces nightly build (2004-09-07) and dropped 
the demo applications into a fresh jboss 3.2.5, both jboss and the webapps are 
unmodified. 

When I run the demo application and hit the refresh button on a page, that 
page comes back blank (except the first page, wich always works). Waiting a 
minute and hitting refresh sometimes brings the page back but subseqvent 
refreshes always generates the blank page again. 

The server gives the following warnings:
17:12:58,140 WARN  [ViewHandlerImpl] Unable to determine FaceServlet mapping 
for servlet path '/editRegistration.do'.
17:13:11,469 WARN  [ViewHandlerImpl] Unable to determine FaceServlet mapping 
for servlet path '/tour.do'.

I am not sure though that these warnings are assosciated with this particular 
problem since they sometimes occur even when the pages renders ok. The amazing 
thing is that the application works perfect as long as I navigate through it 
using the links. It is ONLY the refresh command that makes it disappear.

I tried the solution suggested by kreator at 
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp?thread=500294&forum=427&message=2661146 
and added a context.release() at the end of FacesRequestProcessor wich fixed 
the problem but introduces an illegalstate exception (don't remember the exact 
exception) wich is logical since the context has been removed.

Cheers
Fredrik
