Trivial JSF 2.0 URL to Page mis-match

Say I create two Java Server Faces pages that just link to each other. You'll notice that the URL's get mixed up. When I click from page 1 to page 2, the url continues to say page 1, and they remain reversed for the rest of time... This is useless for book marking. Is there a reasonable work around for this bug?
<html
     xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
     xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"
     xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html">
     <body>
          This is page one!
          <f:view>
               <h:form>
                    <h:commandButton action="pagetwo" value="forward"/>
               </h:form>
          </f:view>
     </body>
</html>and page two is here:
<html
     xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
     xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"
     xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html">
     <body>
          This is page two.<br/>
          <f:view>
               <h:form>
                    <h:commandButton action="pageone" value="back"/>
               </h:form>
          </f:view>
     </body>
</html>Since this is such a basic example it does leave me wondering if JSF 2.0 is a good technology to use to build a dynamic web site!

This is normal for JSF. Let me explain how this happens. When a page is submitted using a JSF commandXxxx component, it is not known at submission time what page will be the result. So the form is always written to submit back to the page that was rendered. The request comes in; the view is restored; validation and conversion occur (if they fail the original view is re-rendered); actions are fired during the execute application phase; the result of the action is fed to the navigation handler to determine the next view; the next view is rendered (or the original view is re-rendered). So this problem is an inevitable result of the way JSF was designed.
That is not to say there aren't ways around it. In JSF 1.x you could use the <redirect/> directive in the descriptor for the navigation rule. This would cause the server to issue a redirect response for the new view and thus the URLs would align. There are side effects however (some positive). In JSF 2.0 you might not have a descriptor for the navigation in question, I am not sure how you accomplish the same thing without creating an entry in the faces-config.xml.
Now I will get to the really good stuff, which I think is what you will desire. There are libraries to create bookmarkable, "pretty" URLs for your JSF application. Try googling PrettyFaces.

How to invoke JSF With Standard Urls and parameters

Hi,
Could some one please help me how to invoke JSF with standard Urls and parameters?
My requirement is:
http://localhost:8080/myapp/faces/jsf_page.jsp?trackerID=11&viewPage="products"
then i want to save the tracker details into database and redirect the user to "products" page.
Would some one suggest me where can i get some example?

Hi BalusC,
It didn't solve my proble.....Your solutions are fantastic for most of the issues. But mine problem is unclear where JSF page tags.
If possible, Could you please provide me how to invoke the method from JSF page....
same code works if the user click on command button but my requirement is as soon as the user click on the link from 3rd party website, then he need to come to our web application and invoke the JSF page along with ManagedBean for saving details and redirect to disganted webpage.
I will provide the following link to 3rd party websites. the URL is :: http://somedomain.com/myApp/Tracker.JSF?trackerID=111
Could you please provide me the code i need to write in JSF ....just for invoking ManagedBean class...? how i code for page on load call the managedBean for specific method?

Is it possible to use JSF file as as error page.

I am using jsf file as an error page.It is working in fine in websphere. But if i am using that only the exception is raised it is not going to error page.
In Web.XML file,
<servlet>
<servlet-name>Faces Servlet</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>javax.faces.webapp.FacesServlet</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>Faces Servlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/faces/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
<error-page>
<error-code>403</error-code> <location>/faces/unauthorized.jsp</location>
</error-page>
jsf codings are placed under *.jsp files. In the time submitting form data to server a method throws NumberFormatException. This exception information is displayed in console. but blankpage is coming . It is not redirected to error.jsp fle which is under faces/error.jsp.
If i am directly giving /error.jsp then it is giving Faces context is not created error.
So i tried use simple jsp(pure jsp) file wihtin the folder and i set path like /pages/foo.jsp. It is working.
Tell me is it possible to use jsf as error page.

What would you hope to do with the reference? The Mathscript node doesn't have a file reading capability. You need to read the file and pass the data into the Mathscript node.
EDIT: I stand corrected. You need to use the fopen and fclose functions inside of the MathScript node to be able to read a file inside of it.
There are only two ways to tell somebody thanks: Kudos and Marked Solutions

Steve, "Simple JSF Popup List of Values Page " does not work..

Hi Steve,
I read "Not Yet Documented ADF Sample Applications" #80 : "Simple JSF Popup List of Values Page " and download SimpleADFBCLOVJSF.zip, but when I try to run the sample, I get this error :
JBO-33001: Cannot find the configuration file /xxx/common/bc4j.xcfg in the classpath
What is wrong ?
Thank you,
xtanto

Thanks for reporting this. I've uploaded a newer version of the zip file that fixes this issue.
It was due to a last-minute refactoring of my model project from having the application module living in a package named "xxx" to another package named "example.model"

Page URL and Page Name in Enterprise Wiki

Hello,
I have a problem with the page URL and page name in our Enterprise Wiki. Parent and subsite locales are Turkish. My problem is, when I add a page in Enterprise Wiki and give it an English URL, the page Header is written in English and when I give a Turkish
URL, the page header is written in Turkish. What I want to have (and I think the right way) is to have the URL in English and the page header in Turkish.
To clarify my question, I will create a page with a Turkish name and URL. I will name it "Türkçe Tanıtım" (which stands for Turkish Demonstration), using Turkish characters. Then the URL becomes:
http://mysite.com/Pages/T%C3%BCrk%C3%A7e%20Tan%C4%B1t%C4%B1m.aspx
And the page header is "Türkçe Tanıtım", which is normal, as expected:
If I change the page URL to look correctly, using English characters only, it looks like "TurkceTanitim." The URL becomes "tidy" (http://mysite.com/Pages/TurkceTanitim.aspx) but the page header also becomes "TurkceTanitim",
which is not correct in Turkish:
What I would like to have, and what I think it should, is to have a URL completely in English (http://mysite.com/Pages/TurkceTanitim.aspx) but have the page header in Turkish (Türkçe Tanıtım). I am sure this could be done in SharePoint, I/we are missing
something but I don't know what.
Can you give me a hand on this?
Thanks in advance,
Tolga

Hi Tolga,
I understand you would like to change Wiki page title but not page name in url.
The title of the Wiki pages is always linked to the actual file name of that certain page. To get the use out of title property we have to manipulate the page template for the Wiki pages.
Please refer to the article below and edit "/_catalogs/masterpage/EnterpriseWiki.aspx" in SharePoint Designer:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/17557.sharepoint-2013-change-page-title-in-wiki-sites.aspx

How to map a url that does not match with the context root ?

does weblogic support url that does not match the context root ?
ex. the context root is AAA. the welcome page can be
retrieved using http://localhost:7001/AAA
Can it be configured to use http://localhost:7001/BBB to bring up the index.html in context root AAA ? if so, how ?

I agree with Imp68.
It still amazes me that in 2014 so many web sites are still not standards-compliant and instead insist on sniffing for the user-agent. And, in the majority of cases, I've found that the websites work fine with any modern browser.
phardell,
To be clear, Safari is not the problem, the website is! The developer of this website is still living in the 1990s and needs to move forward with the times. Imp68's suggestion will cause Safari to "pretend" to be whatever browser you wish. Try choosing "Safari 7" if that worked for you in the past and the website will likely go back to working. If that does not work then try choosing "Internet Explorer 10" from the menu and see if that works.
No matter what the result, you should look at the bottom of the page for a link to report problems with the website. Submit a comment that tells them that they need to "modernize your website to support all modern web browsers".
Good luck.

IPhone 6 Plus 16GB blue screen crashes: Read, error type:Address map hole or size mis-match

Hi folks,
Some time ago I had a 16GB 6+ and it crashed with the blue screen, so I returned it. I now have a brand new one that I got from Tmobile ($75 return fee) and although it has mostly worked just fine, I have gotten 2 blue screen crashes. Below are the details from the phone's log.
What strikes me is the message "Read, error type:Address map hole or size mis-match".
Does anyone know if this could be caused by a hardware defect?
I've gotten one of these crashes running iOS 8.1.2 and another in 8.1.3.
Thanks.

The https URL hostname does not match the Common Name (CN) on the server.

Hi,
I am getting the following error while trying to use https with our self-signed certificates.
javax.xml.ws.soap.SOAPFaultException: Marshalling Error: The https URL hostname does not match the Common Name (CN) on the server certificate. To disable this check (NOT recommended for production) set the CXF client TLS configuration property "disableCNCheck" to true.
The above error is the error I get, when I try to use the Web Services using https.
I have added the following lines in cxf.xml but it still doesn't seem to work correctly.
<http-conf:conduit name="*.http-conduit">

<http-conf:tlsClientParameters disableCNCheck="true" />
Kindly let me know on what would be the issue here?.

I had P2V'd a SQL 2008 server and was having this issue. I tried everything I could find to get the affinity corrected; setting the Lock Pages security policy, trying the affinity commands in Single User mode, etc.
Then wrighbar's response got me headed in the right direction, but I ran into an issue where the previous engineer had set the Physical SQL server to have affinity on procs 9-16 of a 16 proc box, I could only set up to 8 procs on my VM. After searching
for a while for registry keys or config files that might be editable to change the affinity I couldn't find where SQL got that information from. Finally it hit me, maybe it's stored in the master or msdb datatbases.
SOLUTION: I was able to go back to the original Physical machine, change the affinity settings there, Stop SQL on both boxes, then copied MASTER, MODEL, MSDB, TEMPDB from the original Physical machine to the new virtual machine. All services started
OK on the virtual machine now and affinity was set the way I needed it.

Mis match in attributes of item category B and Blanket PO item details

Hi
I could not able to create a Blanket PO with document type FO and item category B (limit).
Normally for a blanket PO, GR is not allowed and IR is mandatory. So, I could able to see these checkboxes for GR (not set and grayed) and IR (set and grayed) in the item details of the PO in delivery and invoice tabs. But I end with an error message that 'GR is not set is used is not allowed' (exactly i don't remember but some thing like that)
Before creating a blanket PO, I found that in 'attributes of item categories', that for the item category B, GR is set and IR is not set (in customizing-OMH4). Of course, one cannot change the attributes of item categories.
I suppose due to this mis-match in the attributes of item categories and that in the PO, I'm getting an error message while creating a blanket PO and could not able to save.
Also I have checked all the system messages for the message displayed. No where(i.e. in any message class or category and for that message number) I found any such message defined with error in 'attributes of system messages' for purchasing, material master, inventory, invoice verification etc.
I suppose this error message is coming somewhere from the application program for the PO.
So, what can be the solution
waiting for your reply.
thank you

Thank you for your answer. I haven't mention this point in my thread but I have already tried this.
I have tried matching the GR and IR controls of account assignment category with PO GR, IR controls and also with item category B, GR, IR controls. Still i am getting the same error and could not able to save the PO
Also I have checked the field settings for PO for all categories like transaction relevant, item category relevant, etc in customizing.
Main problem is both GR and IR controls are being grayed in PO. Other wise I could able to change them as per my wish and could able to avoid the error even though the GR and IR controls in PO are correct as per the process requirement.
If possible, please check the GR and IR controls for item category B (in my system it showing that GR is set with binding and IR is not set with binding). But it should be reverse as per the process requirements and in limit PO it is showing correctly. i.e. with GR is not set with binding and IR is set with binding.
thank you

Include jsf file in a jsp page

Hi Everyone,
I have a plain jsp page with no JSF Components, but it has a jsp:include tag which is another jsp file which contains jsf components.

     .......... so.....on........
I saw the source code for the plain jsp file and the error is because of including the jsp file with jsf components.
The contents of both the jsp file is given below
Plain jsp file
DWStaticJSP.jsp
<%@ page import="java.util.*" %>
<%@ page import="com.mirus.bi.jsp.*" %>
<%@ page import="com.mirus.bi.util.Log" %>
<% Log.logDbg("*******before calling the faces file from DWStatic :"+rSetting.getStaticJSPFileName()); %>
// name of the file name : /faces/report_palm.jsp
<jsp:include page="<%=rSetting.getStaticJSPFileName()%>" flush="false" >
               <jsp:param name="DMode" value="DBoard" />
</jsp:include>
Jsp file with JSF component
it is stored in faces folder
/faces/report_palm.jsp
<%@ page contentType="text/html" %>
<%@ page import="com.mirus.bi.util.Log" %>

          <h:outputText value="Year:" />
          <h:outputText value="#{palmReportUIHandler.currentYear}" />
          <h:outputText value="Month:" />
          <h:outputText value="#{palmReportUIHandler.currentMonth}" />
</f:view>
The Configuration in the web.xml for faces Servlet is given below
<servlet>
<servlet-name>FacesServlet</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>javax.faces.webapp.FacesServlet</servlet-class>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>

<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>FacesServlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/faces/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
Does anybody know the solution to this problem
Any kind of help will be highly appreciated.

Hi Adam Winer,
I want to try your solution.
just wanted some more clarification .....
So, let's say you have:
DWStaticJSP.jsp: plain JSP
report_palm.jsp: JSF JSP included by DWStaticJSP.jsp
What you should do is use an URL of:
/faces/DWStatic.jsp
to access the outer plain JSP (yes, even though it's not really a faces page), and then have
/faces/DWStatic.jsp include just plain /report_palm.jsp.
In essence, the critical thing is that the FacesServlet wraps the entire request - FacesServlet cannot run
for just a piece of the request.My question is where should i store the DWStatic.jsp file ... As u said i should acces it using /faces/DWStatic.jsp do i need to save it in the faces folder or just in the web app root.
I cant save the DWStatic.jsp in the faces folder as this file is used for lot of different purpose in my company application.
So can u give me a solution where in i can keep the DWStatic.jsp in the web-root folder and still try your solution
Also is this the right setting for facesServlet in the web.xml.
<servlet>
<servlet-name>FacesServlet</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>javax.faces.webapp.FacesServlet</servlet-class>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>

<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>FacesServlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/faces/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
Whatever follows below this line is the describtion of the web appp structure which i have in my company.
We have an application where in all the jsp files are stored in the web-app root folder.....
I will be using alphabets like a.jsp ... b.jsp .... to keep the explanation small...
I have an a.jsp file which includes a b.jsp file which in turn includes a c.jsp......
Now we have started using JSF.....
Now as a developer .... i want the c.jsp to include a d.jsp file which contains JSF components...
The thing is i cant change the location of a.jsp, b.jsp and c.jsp......
Can u tell me how i should call " a.jsp" ... imean the url so that the "d.jsp" file gets processed properly.
Also where should i save all the jsp files and what config is requiered in the web.xml for your solution
I thank you for your help

JSF desing: Application with similar pages

I have a design question regarding JSF. Sometimes, a web application consists of a set of pages that look basically the same but perform different operations in the background. As an example, consider Google that offers several search types (normal search, images, news, scholar, etc.). The interface is always very similar, but the search engine invoked in the background differs.
Obviously it's a bad idea to have an own search and results page for each search type, as many things remain identical, which results in intensive code replication. If one page is changed, all pages have to be changed. That's definitely not desired.
So what is the right way to overcome this problem using JSF? Of course I could write just one page and heavily use the "rendered" attributed in JSF tags (to account for the differences in the pages). I would then probably have some member "current search engine" in the backing bean and bind the action of the search button to the current search engine's search method. Whenever the search type is changed, the current search engine would point to another search engine object in the bean.
Further, the JSF navigation would probably become dependent on the state of a session bean. If I want to link to a help page, for example, a different page should be displayed for the, say, image search and the news search. The "help" button would probably just be bound to a help() method, which, depending on the current search engine, would return "help image search", "help news search", etc. Denpendent on the outcome, JSF could then navigate to the correct page.
I guess this approach would basically work. However, I see some relevant drawbacks.
1) Assume the user is in the "news search" mode. He then clicks on "image search" and then hits the back button. Now he hits the "help" button. Without further measures that allow to detect that the back button was hit, I guess, JSF would now navigate to the page "help image search" (even though the user (who sees the news search page), would expect to be taken to the "help news search" page). I expect this behaviour, since JSF (or better the backing bean) does not know that we are on the "news search" page again (as it is only a cached copy from the browser). If there were multiple pages with different URLs for each page, JSF could detect that fact but checking the viewId (is that correct?).
2) I guess the JSF pages become rather difficult to read (and thus to edit) due to the extensive use of rendered and unrendered parts.
I guess the first problem could be solved with some hidden inputs on the pages (that inform the backing bean about the page we are currently viewing). But this rather looks like a hack to me...
Therefore my question. Is there some nice way to write a JSF application with these characteristics? And if yes, how should it be done? Maybe there is something like inheritance and the ability to override certain parts (as in object oriented programming). Then I could keep different pages (with own URLs), but don't have to replicate the code.
And ideas, hints and links to documents and discussions about that topic are highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Michael

According the contents, I can't use JSF alone to deal
big projects, have to associate with a framework. IF
it is the case, I don't think it's an easy choice for
new user, though it has great flexibility for the
others.additional application framework helps you to separate functional and behavioural aspects of your system. it helps by providing standarised way of dealing with the separation. if you clearly design your own rules - you don't have to use additional 'big' framework. however, it might be usefull to use some smaller specialised ones, eg. for tiles or validation, if it's an issue in your particular case.
that's my opinion.
Any sugestion if there is a common appoarch that JSF
doesn't have to associate with a framework (maybe in
the near future)?now i'm working on portal application. it's build of rather small portlets, each one implemented using jsf. we doesn't use any additional frameworks. it wouldn't make much sense, as the portlet-based architecture enforces clear and distinct separation of functional modules.

JSF Portlet keeps last navigated page

I have a small JSF application where there is a simple navigation from first displayed JSP pageA to JSP pageB:
(of course with a managed bean
<navigation-rule>
<from-view-id>/portlets/pageA.jsp</from-view-id>
<navigation-case>
<from-outcome>success</from-outcome>
<to-view-id>/portlets/pageB.jsp</to-view-id>
</navigation-case>
</navigation-rule>
As a standalone Web app the first pageA is always redisplayed with the main app url.
However configured as a JSF portlet, after navigating to pageB, the portlet will always redisplay pageB!
What configuration am i missing to reset to first pageA when redisplay main portal page?
thanks.

on a second thought the behavior i see might be valid due to the fact that i specify in my navigation rule a <from-view-id>, which as soon as i'm on pageB no longer applies, meaning there is no rule from pageB for same outcome, so pageB is still displayed.
I added an extra rule for pageB and a "Back" button on pageB and now i can go back to initial page.
for me it is a bit unexpected, due to this view "statefulness", but does make sense, need to better master JSF ...

Unable to manage JSF tabSet in frame(jsp page)

i am using frameset in jsp page and in top frame i m placing the jsp file which contains the JSF tabSet with 4 tabs and i have set the url proerty and target ='bottom" i.e the name of lower frame
i am able to navigate the pages in lower frame but not able to keep focus for selected tab.

Hi,
You could try using page fragment instead of frames.
There is a relevant topic on EA discussion.

Hope this helps.
