CommandButton action would not be invoked

I am trying to follow the JSP 1.2 standard. The page is rendered correctly. The drop down list is populated successfully, which means my bean is correctly registered and initialized. However, when I click the button, the action is not called. (I have logger statement inside the create method). Can someone help? I am thinking that maybe the 1.2 JSP caused the problem. Thanks!
I am using Tomcat 4.1.29

Thanks. It is resolved.
End up to be my bean has a typo with one of the property setter method.
It's always nice to turn on logger for JSF packages.
I think for this kind of problem JSF should throw a fatal exception. At least it should tell the developer that one of the setter method could not be found.
Currently, JSF just log a debug message (PropertyResolver24...) quitely and the action is not called.

What is commandButton.action, if not a method?

Gosh, I'm learning a lot of interesting things. First, the UIComponent.getAttributes().put() method simply uses Java reflection to find the appropriate setXXX() property method of the UIComponent itself, making UIComponent.getAttributes().put(propertyName, propretyValue) equivalent to UIComponent.setProperty(propertyValue)!
Second, UICommand.setAction only takes a method binding argument, meaning that UICommand.getAttributes().put("action", value) only accepts a method binding as well.
So how does <commandButton action="value"> work for literal values? That is, if the action action XML attribute value isn't a method-binding reference but a literal string value, how does CommandButtonTag store this value in UICommand?
Garret

OK, you've got a distinction between "method-signature
binding", which is what MethodBinding actually is,
and your new "method-value binding", which JSF doesn't
offer.Right, and right! (The latter is the answer to the rhetorical question, "If I can get a value from a property, why can't I get a value from a method call?")
I don't see anything in your proposal that
provides method-signature binding via a ValueBinding
class, nor can I imagine how you'd elegantly provide
that.I don't want to! The reason why it's important to make the distinction between method-signature binding and method-value binding is that they are two different animals, for two different purposes. Method-signature binding is already served quite well, as you point out, by the existing MethodBinding. The "value" we want is a pointer to the method itself, not the value it produces. As you can't use a JSF EL (or even an extended JSF EL) expression or a method call to return a method-signature binding, there's no reason for method-signature binding to be part of the ValueBinding<?> (or Expression<?> or whatever we call it) hierarchy at all.
Take the actionListener attribute, for instance. The value of this attribute is a method---not the value a method produces. It says in essence, "here is the method I want JSF to call later when an event is produced." We don't specify method argument objects, because we don't know them. (I'd like to see the JSF EL syntax explicitly specify the parameter types, but that's a wholly separate issue that doesn't affect this discussion.)
The UICommand.actionListener attribute is like a string or integer attribute that doesn't support property-value binding. In fact, MethodBinding is a type just like String or Integer, and if Java supported returning method bindings we could in fact have an Expression<MethodBinding> that allowed the method binding to be literally specified (as it is now) or returned as the value of a property or a method invocation. But the Java language doesn't know about method-signature bindings, so "actionListener", "valueChangeListener", "validator", and other method-signature binding attributes should remain as they are now, and allow only a single MethodBinding as the valid object (parsed from the literal string method signature value in the XML attribute).
I'm also not sure you addressed what I meant by
"shadowing"; in JSF, if a ValueBinding is set, and
then a static value is set, the static value "shadows"
the binding; if the static value is nulled out, the
ValueBinding becomes active again.Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't understand what you meant by "shadowing." I had assumed that you meant the same thing Mann was talking about when he described using a ConstantMethodBinding adapter class to pretend to be a MethodBinding when in reality a literal value is being stored.
Rather, you're talking about, for example, UIParameter.name, which allows both a value-binding expression to be set, or just a literal string which if set makes UIParameter ignore the value-binding expression. Frankly, I didn't know this was a benefit---I thought it was an undesired consequence of UIComponent wanting to support both literal values and property-value binding expressions, and having one of these hidden if you happened to set both. My proposal didn't have this (what I thought to be) schizophrenia, and I thought that was a good thing.
If it turns out you want to shadow variables (can you tell me why you'd want to?), then that's easier under my proposal than it currently is in JSF. In my proposal the logic is encapsulated in the Expression<?>, not the UIComponent.
First, just add an Expression<T>.setShadowedValue() to the base value-binding interface. Adding this to the interface I defined above gives us:
public interface Expression<T> //the base ValueBinding I describe above
public T getValue(final FacesContext context);
public Class getType(FacesContext context);
public String getExpressionString();
public void setValue(T value);
public void setShadowedValue(Expression<T> expression);
}(Note that I also added Expression<T>.setValue(). A MethodValueBindingExpression<T>.setValue(), of course, will function exactly like a PropertyValueBindingExpression<T>.setValue() for a property that is read-only, as will a LiteralExpression<T>.)
Now you can shadow property-value bindings with literal values to your heart's content. Better yet, you can also shadow method-value bindings with a literal value. Even better, you don't have to care whether it's a property-value binding or a method-value binding (or even a literal value!) that you're shadowing with your literal value. (Maybe your use case calls for literal values to disallow shadowing---in that case LiteralExpression<T>.setShadowedValue() would call LIteralExpression<T>.setValue(), or maybe just throw away the value, depending on how you want it to work.)
But it gets better! Why only shadow with literal values---why not shadow with a property-value binding? Why not shadow a property-value binding with a method-value binding? All of this is allowed, because Expression<T>.setShadowedValue() excepts another Expression<T> as its parameter. (And if you're using generics, it's even type-safe.) The internal logic of setShadowedValue() and getValue() function exactly as the current UIComponent code does for any arbitrary attribute, except now it's more elegant, more powerful, and encapsulated in a single place. It should be identically efficient.
This all assumes that we even want shadowing. I'm sure you have a compelling use case...
BTW, I entirely agree about the inelegance and
inefficiency of the standard coding pattern for
retrieving properties in JSF UIComponent classes, and
know that it calls out for a better underlying storage
architecture. That's why we don't duplicate it in the
ADF Faces code!Yeah, I'm sure there are several ways to get around this ugly mess, and I'm sure most of them use some sort of refactoring to put common code in some other place than within UIComponent. I happen to like my proposal, which uses polymorphism to remove the need for if(){}else{} when retrieving values, and makes everything self-consistent, type-safe, extensible, elegant, and efficient. I'm sure your solution is pretty good, too. ;)
All this, built entirely on top of the existing JSF
spec. It can be done.Oh, yes, we can do all sorts of things on top of the existing JSF spec. In fact, the entire architecture I've proposed can be adapted to plug into the existing JSF architecture. Here's what I've done:
First, I've created the whole Expression<T> interface hierarchy, implemented by PropertyValueBindingExpression<T>, MethodValueBindingExpression<T>, and LiteralExpression<T> hierarchy I outlined above. Now I have a nice interface that allows me to access values without caring how they are represented.
But some existing UIComponent attributes (e.g. UIParameter.value) only allow property-value bindings (ignoring shadowing for the moment). So I have an ExpressionValueBinding that wraps any expression and adapts it as a subclass of ValueBinding.
Some existing UIComponent attributes (e.g. UICommand.action) only allow method-value bindings. (In fact, UICommand.action may be the only place where JSF uses a method-value binding---without realizing it) Similarly, I have an ExpressionMethodValueBinding that wraps any expression and adapts it as a subclass of MethodBinding.
I can now plug any expression (whether literal, property-value binding, or method-value binding) into any relevant exiting JSF component attribute, and things work---well and elegantly. It should be obvious by now that the mere fact that I can do this cries out that property-value binding, method-value binding, and literal values might as well have the same interface to begin with.

Button Actions are not working -invoking task flow from other project regio

Hi
I have a project using a mani.jspx file having a regions and the region is updated with different views based on a router condition in my bounded task flow. Everything working fine with in the project. I have a seperate project in my application having an index.jspx and region in it. I created the ADF lib jar file of the first project and imported to this project. I could invoke the task flow in the first project to the region in the index.jspx file in the seconed project.But none of the action managed bean method attached to the buttons in this view are working.The methods are not getting called on clicking on button and no error in the backend console of Integrated weblogic server.Any body can help what could be the issue ?
Thanks
Suneesh

The issue that is happening when I refreshed the region with task flow from the project I imported.If I load the taskflow from the imported project on first time rendering all my managed bean actions are executing but if I load a different flow initially and change the taskflow Id imported from other project none of the managed actions are working.
Thanks
Suneesh

CommandButton action method invoked multiple times in standalone OC4J

Hi,
We've developed an application in JDeveloper 10.1.3.3.0 (ADF Business Components version 10.1.3.41.57). In one page we have a commandButton with an action method:
<af:commandButton action="#{MyBean.myActionMethod}"
blocking="false"
textAndAccessKey="#{nls['MY_LABEL']}"
id="myButtonId" >
<f:actionListener type="oracle.jheadstart.controller.jsf.listener.ResetBreadcrumbStackActionListener"/>
</af:commandButton>
This method is defined in a managed bean:
public String myActionMethod() {
/* some code */
return "indexPage";
There is a navigation-rule for outcome "indexPage". When we run our application in the JDeveloper embedded OC4J instance and click on the commandButton, the action method is invoked once and then the .jspx in the navigation-rule is navigated to.
We deployed our application to a standalone OC4J instance. Both embedded and standalone OC4J have version: Oracle Containers for J2EE 10g (10.1.3.3.0) (build 070610.1800.23513)
When we run our application in the standalone OC4J and click on the commandButton, the action method is repeatedly invoked in a seemingly infinite loop.
We'd appreciate it if someone could shed some light on the matter. Please note that we cannot use <redirect /> in our navigation-rule for "indexPage" because in production we have an Oracle webcache server upstream of our OC4J. Users can only submit HTTPS requests to the webcache, which in turn forwards these requests as HTTP requests.
Kind regards,
Ibrahim

Dear All,
We'd really appreciate it if somebody would suggest some possible causes even if these might seem fare-fetched. Perhaps compare certain .jar files or something to that effect.
Anything ????
Thanks and regards,
Ibrahim

CommandButton actions not getting called when "disabled" element present

MyObjectForm.jsp contains commandButtons for "add", "update" and "delete" that are enabled/disabled according to the value of the bound id field.
MyObjectForm.jsp
<html>
<body>
<f:view>
<h:form id="create">
<h:inputHidden id="id" value="#{myObjectBean.id}" />
<h:panelGrid columns="3" border="0">
Name: <h:inputText id="name"
requiredMessage="*"
value="#{myObjectBean.name}"
required="true"/>
<h:message for="name"/>
// other fields
<h:commandButton id="add"
value="Add" disabled="#{myObjectBean.id!=0}"
action="#{myObjectBean.add}"/>
<h:commandButton id="update"
value="Update" disabled="#{myObjectBean.id==0}"
action="#{myObjectBean.update}"/>
<h:commandButton id="delete"
value="Delete" disabled="#{myObjectBean.id==0}"
action="#{myObjectBean.delete}"/>
<h:commandButton id="delete2"
value="Delete (no disabled element)"
action="#{myObjectBean.delete}"/>
</h:form>
</f:view>
</body>
</html>In its managed bean, MyObjectBean, if an id parameter is found in the request, the record is read from the database and the form is populated accordingly in an annotated @PostConstruct method:-
MyObjectBean.java
public class MyObjectBean {
private int id;
/** other properties removed for brevity **/
public MyObjectBean() {
LOG.debug("creating object!");
@PostConstruct
public void init() {
String paramId = FacesUtils.getRequestParameter("id");
if(paramId!=null && !paramId.equals("")){
getById(Integer.parseInt(paramId));
LOG.debug("init id:"+id);
}else{
public String delete(){
LOG.debug("delete:"+id);
MyObjectVO myObjectVO = new MyObjectVO();
ModelUtils.copyProperties(this, myObjectVO);
myObjectService.removeMyObjectVO(myObjectVO);
return "";
public String add(){
LOG.debug("add");
MyObjectVO myObjectVO = new MyObjectVO();
ModelUtils.copyProperties(this, myObjectVO);
myObjectService.insertMyObjectVO(myObjectVO);
return "";
public String update(){
LOG.debug("update:"+id);
MyObjectVO myObjectVO = new MyObjectVO();
ModelUtils.copyProperties(this, myObjectVO);
myObjectService.updateMyObjectVO(myObjectVO);
return "";
public void getById(int id){
MyObjectVO myObjectVO= myObjectService.findMyObjectById(id);
ModelUtils.copyProperties(myObjectVO, this);
/** property accessors removed for brevity **/
}When no parameter is passed, id is zero, MyObjectForm.jsp fields are empty with the "add" button enabled and the "update" and "delete" buttons disabled.
Completing the form and clicking the "add" button calls the add() method in MyObjectBean.java which inserts a record in the database. A navigation rule takes us to ViewAllMyObjects.jsp to view a list of all objects. Selecting an item from the ViewAllMyObjects.jsp list, adds the selected id to the request as a paramter and a navigation rule returns us to MyObjectForm.jsp, populated as expected. The "add" button is now disabled and the "update" and "delete" buttons are enabled (id is no longer equal to zero).
Action methods not getting called
This is the problem I come to the forum with: the action methods of commandButtons "update" and "delete" are not getting called.
I added an extra commandButton "delete2" to the form with no "disabled" element set and onclick its action method is called as expected:-
commandButton "delete2" (no disabled element) - works
<h:commandButton id="delete2"
value="Delete (no disabled element)"
action="#{myObjectBean.delete}"/>Why would "delete2" work but "delete", not?
commandButton "delete" (disabled when id is zero) - doesn't work
<h:commandButton id="delete"
value="Delete" disabled="#{myObjectBean.id==0}"
action="#{myObjectBean.delete}"/>The obvious difference is the "disabled" element present in one but not the other but neither render a disabled element in the generated html.
Am I missing something in my understanding of the JSF lifecycle? I really want to understand why this doesn't work.
Thanks in advance.
Edited by: petecknight on Jan 2, 2009 1:18 AM

Ah, I see (I think). Is the request-scoped MyObjectBean instantiated in the Update Models phase? If so then the id property will not be populated at the Apply Request Values phase which happens before this, making the commandButton's disabled attribute evaluate to true.
Confusingly for me, during the Render Response phase, the id property is+ set, so the expression is false (not disabled) giving the impression that the "enabled" buttons would work.
So, is this an flaw in my parameter passing and processing code or do you see a work around?

CommandLink action not being invoked

HI:
I have a page with panelGrid, which has three inputText and one selectOneMenu, all of which have a validator ( a method in the backing bean).
All these are followed by a commandLink button with a 'action' method in the same backing bean.
Problem is when the link is submitted the action method does not get invoked. I placed debug messages and can see that the validator methods are entered but the action method never gets invoked. There are no error messages either.
Any thoughts ?

I found a work around. At least everything is working now. I have to yet test out the entire functionality of my application but here is what I did.
Thanks to the example in the book

RBA GATP check is not getting invoked for Sales Order

Hi Everyone,
RBA GATP check is not getting invoked for Sales order.
I maintained the configuration settings for 'Rules-Based Availability Check', APO general settings (check mode, check instruction), carried out integrated rule maintenance, Rule determination for the combination of order type & product, associated the check mode to product master. Also maintained all the settings in ECC towards Req class, Req type, checking control etc.
However, sales order is not invoking RBA Check though it is showing up the 'Rule' icon in the screen. Also, in the APO Availability check in Sales order when I click onto 'check instruction', I get the checking mode that pertains to RBA for business event 'A' (Sales order). Though I have not maintained any stock for the main material for which I have the sales order, yet system is confirming any quantity that I put in.
I would expect that system would propose the same material in an alternate location where we have stock through RBA.
Request you to share ideas on this.
Regards,
Avijit Dutta

Hi Avijit,
You should used No Checking Horizon in Checking instructions and also Check your rule control settings.
What you have defined in 1st and 2nd steps. Check whether product substitution is carried out or Location Substitution.
Thanks,
Bala.

This "original file cannot be found" thing happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes .

Command link / button action is not taking place if i use it in iterator.

Hi,
I am new to ADF, i am facing 1 issue while implementing ADF mobile browser application.
Issue: command link / button action is not taking place if i use it in iterator. its just refreshing the page it self and displaying as no records.
Scenario is i am populating the search results in results page from search page using iterator, i want to get the complete details in different page (results page -> details page) .
I have tried in different ways.like
case1:
<tr:panelGroupLayout id="pgl2" layout="vertical" styleClass="af_m_panelBase">
<tr:panelHeader text="#{classviewBundle.SEARCH_RESULTS}" id="ph1"/>
<tr:iterator id="i1" value="#{bindings.SubjectVO1.collectionModel}" var="subject"
varStatus="subIndx" rows="100">
<tr:panelBox text="#{subject.Subject} #{subject.CatalogNbr} - #{subject.CourseTitleLong}"
styleClass="af_m_listingPrimaryDetails" id="pb1">
<f:facet name="toolbar"/>
<tr:table var="ssrClass" rowBandingInterval="1" id="t1" value="#{subject.children}"
varStatus="clsIndx" rowSelection="none"
binding="#{SessionBean.subjectTable}" verticalGridVisible="true"
emptyText="No Records" width="100%">
<tr:column id="c9" sortable="false" styleClass="width:100%">
<*tr:commandLink text="Section: #{ssrClass.ClassSection}-#{ssrClass.SsrComponentLovDescr} (#{ssrClass.ClassNbr})"*
id="commandLink2" styleClass="af_m_listingLink"
*action="#{pageFlowScope.BackingBean.searchaction}"></tr:commandLink>*
//remaining code
in this case commandlink action is not able to invoke serachaction() method
case 2:
<tr:commandLink text="Section: #{ssrClass.ClassSection}-#{ssrClass.SsrComponentLovDescr} (#{ssrClass.ClassNbr})"
id="commandLink2" styleClass="af_m_listingLink"
action="classdetails}"></tr:commandLink>
in this case its not able to navigate to classdetails page.
I gave correct navigation cases and rules in taskflow,but its working fine when the command link is out of iterator only.
i tried with actionlistener too.. but no use.. please help me out of this problem .
*Update to issue:*
The actual issue is when i use command link/button in an table/iterator whose parent tag is another iterator then the action is not taking place.
the structer of my code is
< iterator1>
#command link action1
< iterator2>
#command link action2
</ iterator2>
< /iterator1>
#command link action1 is working but "#command link action2" is not...
Thanks
Shyam
Edited by: shyam on Dec 26, 2011 5:40 PM

Hi,
To solve my problem I used a af:foreach instead.
<af:forEach items="#{viewScope.DataBySubjectServiceBean.toArray}" var="text">
<af:commandLink text="#{text.IndTextEn}" action="indicator-selected" id="cl1">
<af:setActionListener from="#{text.IndCode}" to="#{pageFlowScope.IndicatorCodeParam}" />
</af:commandLink>
</af:forEach>
By the way you need to convert the iterator to an Array using a ManagedBean.
public Object[] toArray() {
CollectionModel cm = (CollectionModel) getEL("#{bindings.TView1.collectionModel}");
indicators = new Object[cm.getRowCount()];
for(int i=0;i<cm.getRowCount();i++){
indicators[i] = cm.getRowData(i);
return indicators;
public static Object getEL(String expr) {
FacesContext fc = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
return fc.getApplication().evaluateExpressionGet(fc,expr,Object.class);
Hope that helps-

Can you provide more information? Are you using BasicHttpBinding with transport security? If you access the service from a console client instead of SQL Server Web Service Task, does it work?

On Command Link Action is not Firing

Hi
I am using JDev Version 11.1.1.6
I have command link where i wrote a method in bean for Action. And the same command link has the showpopup behaviour
My assumption was on click of command link Action method fires first then showpopup behaviour fires next.
But when i click on command link action method is not firing, only showpopup behaviour is firing .
is it expected behaviour?
Many Thanks,
~Jagadeesh Badri

Hi Jagadeesh
Yes, it is an expected behaviour. The documentation about af:showPopUpBehaviour says that:
The showPopupBehavior tag cancels the client event defined by the triggerType. Canceling the client event will prevent delivery to the server. This is significant for action events raised by command family components because the server-side action listeners will be ignored. All actionListener method bindings and associated action listeners will not be invoked when the triggerType of "action" is used.
This means that if you use the triggertype of action, then your action method in the link will be ignored. Maybe if you change the triggerType to 'Click' you will get your actionListener triggered and the popup showed.

Can someone help me on this? I need urgently.

One straight and simple answer which i can give you method associated to action attributes always returns a java.lang.String Object.
REF :
action:
=====
If specified as a string: Directly specifies an outcome used by the navigation handler to determine the JSF page to load next as a result of activating the button or link If specified as a method binding: The method has this signature: String methodName(); the string represents the outcome
source : http://horstmann.com/corejsf/jsf-tags.html#Table4_15
therefore
change
public void storeFile(){
logger.info("Inside the storeFile method");
logger.info("The text field value: " + getTextField());
try {
InputStream in = new BufferedInputStream(myFile.getInputStream());
logger.info("The string is: " + in.read());
System.out.println(in.read());
File f = new File("D:\\share\\sample.txt");
OutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(f);
out.write(in.read());
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
logger.info("Exit from the storeFile method");
}to
public String storeFile(){
logger.info("Inside the storeFile method");
logger.info("The text field value: " + getTextField());
try {
InputStream in = new BufferedInputStream(myFile.getInputStream());
logger.info("The string is: " + in.read());
System.out.println(in.read());
File f = new File("D:\\share\\sample.txt");
OutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(f);
out.write(in.read());
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
logger.info("Exit from the storeFile method");
return "success";
}else where you can make use of actionlistener property in the following senario.
but the method signature has to be void storeFile(ActionEvent ae)
and could be use like
<h:commandButton actionlistener="#{fileUploadBean.storeFile}" action="success" value="SUBMIT" /> Hope that might help :)

Frustrated because I keep getting "action list not found" when installing adobe-reader.

1. I had Adobe-reader installed and working but kept getting pop-up screens telling me to update.
2. Each time I tried updating, an error-message showed up "action list not found".
3a. So I thought deleting adobe-reader and doing a fresh install might work.
3b. Using Goggle-Chrome, I still get the same error-message.
3c. Then trying Internet-Explorer as a browser, I still get the same error-message.
4. The real problem now is I have no Adobe-reader at all and that will make my wife unhappy.
5. Operating-system is XP; I don't know how to tell if I have SP-2 or SP-3 if that makes a difference at all.

This problem has been resolved; ultimately, I found out via Googling that XP-SP2-32bit can only handle Version 9.5.
I am upset that Adobe kept telling me for weeks now that I needed to update but they directed me to an update my system is incapable of handling.
Hence the error "action list not found". Dumb!!! I trusted them that they knew what they were doing.
I felt it would help to uninstall what I had and do a fresh install.
Now in that path, Adobe directed me to download version 9.0, which I did.
Then somehow I found out that version 9.5 is the latest-greatest for my machine.
Why did Adobe not make available 9.5 right away instead of 9.0??? Dumb again!!!!
Nice product though; bad execution.
I'm done venting.

CommandButton action would not be invoked
