Navigation Rule Error
Hi
I am using Jdev 10.3.4.
I have developed a 3 page project. It contains a central page with navigation rules to the secondary pages. I have implemented navigation rules and then changed the retun navigation to a global navigation rule (*). When I change the redirect properties too true for all the navigation rules I need to click twice on the command button before navigation takes place. This occurs only when I navigate too the pages for the first time, thereafter it only requiresa single click. Reversing the redirect property to false, does not solve the issue.
Is this a common occurence. If so what cause it and what is the solution?
Kind regards.
Leon.
I have since doing further tests, actually found that the navigation is working. The problem seems to be that the browser has not refreshed the old page and when clicking on the navigation component first refreshes the page and then the changed navigation works fine. Has anybody experienced this before, that the previous version of the page is rendered and when performing an action on the old page it refreshes the page and then only can changes be tested.
Regards.
Leon.

SOS Problem with navigation rules
Hello,
I have been stuck for some time with a navigation problem: It seems my faces DD is read but the navigations rules are not. Unfortunately it does not give me any exception. The only thing that occurs is that the home page reloads itself instead of redirecting to the second page.
Here is my DD:

Julien Martin.Hi,
I added a messages component to your home.jsp page and saw that the page produced validation errors (often the cause for failed navigation).
The problem is that the beans property minimumNote expects an int but gets a String. When you change the the type in the bean to String it works.
You will probably want to add a converter to the uicomponent to get the correct type. I'd be happy to tell you how, but I'm just starting with jsf ;-). -
Adding custom navigation rules results in strange behavior
Hello,
We'd like to add navigation rules to our application. To avoid post-JHeadstart-generation-steps we created an extra faces-config-custom.xml file which contains the navigation rules. When adding this file to the web.xml and run the aplication we encounter strange behavior
- Errors are shown in duplicate
- 'Transaction completed' messages are not shown
Try adding the underneath faces-config-custom.xml to a standard HR demo project and you will get the same behavior.
(1) What is the reason of this strange behavior?
(2) How can we add custom navigation rules, without having to do post creation steps?

[Add faces-config-custom.xml to web.xml]
<context-param>

When you perform a drag and drop operation, JDeveloper adds the following lines to the faces-config.xml:
<lifecycle>
<phase-listener>
Oracle.adf.controller.faces.lifecycle.ADFPhaselistener
</phase-listener>
</lifecycle>
However, JHeadstart uses its own subclass of ADFPhaselistener, and defines the lifecycle element in JhsCommon-beans.xml. Due to a bug in ADF, ADF does not look for the lifecycle element in other files than faces-config, and adds its own element in faces-config.xml If you remove these lines, everything works fine again.
To prevent this from happening again, you can move the following entry from JhsCommon-beans.xml to faces-config.xml:
<lifecycle> <phase-listener>oracle.jheadstart.controller.jsf.lifecycle.JhsADFPhaseListener</phase-listener>
</lifecycle>
And then make a custom template for JhsCommon-beans.vm where you remove this entry.

Navigation and Creating a navigation rule at runtime
Hi all,
How can I create a navigation rule at runtime?
I got all my pages (names and locations) stored in a database table.All my pages are jspx format.
I don't want to create navigation rules for each page, Instead I want to use the location stored in the database and create a navigation rule to navigate to.
I tried navigating using ServletRequest :
ExternalContext ectx = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext();
HttpServletResponse response = (HttpServletResponse)ectx.getResponse();
HttpServletRequest request = (HttpServletRequest)ectx.getRequest();
request.getRequestDispatcher("/faces/Titles.jspx").forward(request,response);But it blows after the first call.
is it possible to create a navigation rule in a Bean or is there another way to call jspx pages from a Bean without loosing the session.
Can someone help me please.
thanks in advance,
Ahmad EsbitaAhmad,
I don't know of any way to programatically create navigation cases at runtime. However, perhaps you could try creating a NavigationHandler decorator. Let's assume you have a function called "getViewIDforAction" that does the database lookup and returns the view ID for a given action code. You could do something like this:
package my.code;
import javax.faces.application.NavigationHandler;
import javax.faces.context.FacesContext;
public class MyNavigationManager extends NavigationHandler
NavigationHandler _base;
public NavigationManager (NavigationHandler base)
super();
_base = base;
public void handleNavigation(FacesContext fc, String actionMethod, String actionName)
String viewID = getViewIDforAction(actionName);
if (viewID != null && ! "".equals(viewID))
fc.getViewRoot().setViewId(viewID);
else
_base.handleNavigation(fc, actionMethod, actionName);
}You'll also need this in faces-config.xml:
<application>
<navigation-handler>my.code.MyNavigationManager</navigation-handler>
...any other stuff...
</application>Note: I haven't tested this or anything - just to give you an idea...

How can i add a navigation rule at the runtime of JSF?
Hello,
how can i add a navigation rule at the runtime of JSF. Maybe i should use the method "addNavigationRule()" in class "FacesConfig", but i do not know, how can i obtain the instance of class "FacesConfig". Can anybody help me?
Thank you very much!!!Just curious: Why whould you want to add navigation Rules at run time. I believe the navigation rules should be set to begin with - "by s/w Architect Design".
Else you can always use Redirect / Forward. -
Empty Navigation Tree error in SRM 7
Hello Experts,
I'm setting up an SRM 7 system. I've configured most of it, but when I test login into the web UI, I get an "Empty Navigation Tree" error with the following text: "The user menu tree for user <username> is empty. Please contact your system administrator".
Here's some additional information:
System version: SAP SRM 7.0
Component: SRM_SERVER 701 SPL 0004
Portal-Independent Navigation Frame is Active (we don't have a SAP Portal installed)
Roles have been regenerated, and my user has been assigned to the org structure correctly.
Org structure has been setup with required attributes.
How I'm doing this test:
1. Login to SICF
2. Go to SAP -> BC -> NWBC -> SRM -> Test Service.
3. This takes me correctly to a "SAP Netweaver" web page, where I click on the "Login" button.
4. A pop-up window appears where I type in my username & password.
5. I get the error message mentioned above.
I'm not really sure what I'm missing.
Your help is appreciated.
Regards,
Gilberto Gallardo.Hello Gilberto Gallardo,
I've had the same issue and the fix for it is to configure in tcode SU01 some roles for the user you are using to access the portal. Some common roles are:
/SAPSRM/ADMINISTRATOR
/SAPSRM/EMPLOYEE
/SAPSRM/OP_PURCHASER
/SAPSRM/RECIPIENT
/SAPSRM/SECRETARY
/SAPSRM/ST_PURCHASER
Perhaps it won't help you, since the post is not recent, but it will help if someone encounters the same issue.

JSF navigation rules sent me to different page, with same URL
Hello everybody,
Have a newbie question on JSF, if anyone can help me. I am using JSF for a web application, and i have a small problem.
If i define a navigation rule, from one page to another, and i am having a button that should send me to another page,
the browser URL remains the same, although the page content IS correctly changed.
Thanks,
AndreiYou're welcome.
Though I should have added that the advantage of the redirect after a POST request is that refreshing the request or navigating back and forward by browser history doesn't cause a re-submit of the POST request anymore. This way you avoid duplication of submitted data. This is called POST-redirect-GET pattern. Refreshing the request after a redirect (which is always a GET request) would only cause the redirect being refreshed, not the initiating POST request.
The disadvantage of a forward is less or more obvious: the URL remains the same and it is not really good for the user experience. If one copypasted the URL in a new window (a new GET request), one wouldn't see the forwarded page, but the originating page. That's why I would recommend to avoid navigation cases and just use the same page to postback the POST request to. For normal page-to-page navigation within a website, I would recommend just using outputlinks and not commandlinks with navigation cases. It's all better for the user experience. -

Import rules, error message "Invalid system"
Hi,
When importing rules under Rule Architect - Import rules, error message "VBS is invalid system" . In the configuration tab we have system and System Name defined as VBS, test connection successful.
Why is it giving an error message VBS is invalid system? Please advise.
Thanks,
SriHi,
Is it rule import after taking an export from other system? In that case, make sure destination system name doesn't contain any space in it.
Also, make sure text and auth Objects are uploaded for VBS system before doing rules import.

Access navigation rules programmatically?
Hello.
Is there any way to access the attributes of a navigation rule programmatically?
In Struts, I was accustomed to getting the URL of a forward that I had set up by doing something like:
<html:rewrite forward="myForwardName"...>on my JSP page, but I can't seem to find any equivalent of this functionality in JSF.
Also, I would like to be able to access the navigation rule attributes from Java code, too, particularly the "to-view-id" attribute, which is something I did in Struts with code like:
String path = mapping.findForward("myForwardName").getPath();I know that this isn't apples-to-apples, and that a global forward in Struts is not set up the same way as a navigation rule in JSF, but I'm hoping that there's some kindly JSF super-genius who can point me in the right direction. :-)
Thanks!
--MikeThanks, rei_nanto--that did shed a little light on the subject!
Now, unfortunately, I am not using the Sun reference implementation (we're using the IBM implementation), and so I don't have the ApplicationAssociate class you mentioned.
I went out and looked at the ApplicationAssociate and NavigationHandlerImpl classes in the RI jars, though, as you suggested, and I can see how it could be done.
The reason I'm looking for a way to get this information, especially the <to-view-id> information, is because I need to do a popup window from my JSF application page, and I would like not to hard-code the URL of the JSF page I want to appear in the popup.
Hence, if I could get the path out of <to-view-id> programatically, I wouldn't have to hard-code the path in my popup.
Any additional thoughts on the matter, given this additional information?
Thanks!

Change JSF navigation-rule not begin with "root"
Dear all,
I have a web application, call myApp, run in PC1. There is a navigation rule to control page1 jump to page2.
normally, after deploy and run my application, url for it is: [ http://{color:#0000ff}pc1:8080{color}/{color:#008000}myApp{color}/*{color:#ff6600}page1.jsf{color}* ], and click something in my page1, it will go to [ http://{color:#0000ff}pc1:8080{color}/{color:#008000}myApp{color}/*{color:#ff6600}page2.jsf{color}* ].
I have another machine, named PC2, and create a mapping and forward request to PC1. Therefore, if anyone type the url: [ http://*{color:#0000ff}pc2{color}*/subSection/{color:#008000}myApp{color}/{color:#ff6600}*page1.jsf*{color} ] , actuality, they are looking for [ http://{color:#0000ff}*pc1:8080*{color}/{color:#008000}myApp{color}/*{color:#ff6600}page1.jsf{color}* ].
Now, I have a problem is that, when people browse a page [ http://{color:#0000ff}*pc2*{color}/*{color:#ff00ff}subSection{color}*/{color:#008000}myApp{color}/*{color:#ff6600}page1.jsf{color}* ] and click something, it will go to another page [ http://{color:#0000ff}*pc2*{color}/{color:#008000}myApp{color}/*{color:#ff6600}page2.jsf{color}* ], not go to [ http://{color:#0000ff}*pc2*{color}/*{color:#ff00ff}subSection{color}*/{color:#008000}myApp{color}/*{color:#ff6600}page2.jsf{color}* ]. Therefore, it makes "404 Not Found" exception.
Does anyone help me?
Thank you

Dynamic Navigation mapping to Navigation Rules
I have a situation where I need to create a javascript "hover-over" nav. I'd also like to have them define the navigation rules in their faces config. My question is, how do I code the javascript "action" for each nav item so that it somehow maps to the navigation rules I defined in my faces config? Right now I'm just rendering all of my javascript in my JSP. In order to get this to work, do I have to create a JSF component? Will it fit into the architecture more cleanly if I do? Any hints? I'd like this to fit into the JSF programming model as much as possible.
Thanks,
DaveI'm just kind of winging it at this point, basing my examples on some of the ones in Core JSF. I'm thinking my component will contain a string for the selected menu item and a collection of navigation items (display string/navigation key). Then there is the renderer for the component, followed by the Tag class and DTD. Does that sound like the right path? Since the nav is a glabal nav, I was thinking of reading in the structure from XML once, and not have all of the menu items in the JSP as child tags. I am still a bit confused as to how I will hook the action of the menu click to my backing bean action. Any help would be appreciated.

Hello!!!
I'm using Jboss Jbpm with JSF and I want to navigate to other page when I fill a form and I send the data that I entered. I have declare the navigation-rules but it doesn't work and I don't know why.
In my faces-config.xml I've added the navigation-rules:
<managed-bean>
<managed-bean-name>usuario</managed-bean-name>
<managed-bean-class>com.miApp.UserBean</managed-bean-class>
<managed-bean-scope>request</managed-bean-scope>
</managed-bean>
<navigation-rule>
<from-view-id>/SolicitarAlta.xhtml</from-view-id>
<navigation-case>
<from-action>#{usuario.registrar}</from-action>
<from-outcome>correcto</from-outcome>
<to-view-id>/results/correcto.jsp</to-view-id>
</navigation-case>
</navigation-rule>
The UserBean has the method registrar:
public String registrar() {
if(dni==null || nombre==null || apellidos==null || ocupacion==null || mail==null || tlf==null ||
password==null)
return "campos-obligatorios";
if ((mail.trim().length() < 3) || (mail.indexOf("@") == -1))
return "mail-incorrecto";
else if(tlf.length()!=9) return "telefono-incorrecto";
else if(dni.length()!=8) {return "dni-incorrecto";}
return "correcto";
And with this line:
<h:commandButton type="submit" value="Enviar" action="#{usuario.registrar}"/> the method registrar is executed and I know that this method returns the string "correcto" but ... This doesn't redirect me to the page correcto.jsp
I thought that maybe if SolicitarAlta was an xhtml file the correcto page should be also an .xhtml file. I changed it but it doesn't work.
Any ideas? Could it be that I have to add something more in the faces-config.xml & web.xml file???
Thx!I found the solution to my problem but I don't really understand why it was not working. My problem was due to the use of command button with a render set to false. I just put them at true and all my navigation rules work!
If someone know why it was not working, I would be glad to know! -
