WAR_BUNDLES_JSF_IMPL does not work for EAR files. Hello World code attached.

wlovett Jul 24, 2013 7:48 PM

Hello Learned and Astonishly Charming JBoss Associates,

I've been trying for quite some time now to get my successfully deployed WAR to become a successfully deployed EAR. Much to my chagrin, this has been my white whale, and it just might kill me.

In a nutshell, the attached EAR file contains a WAR. If you deploy that WAR file everything works smooth as butter. As soon as you put it in an EAR format however, you get the following well placed riposte:

19:33:57,513 WARN  [org.jboss.as.jsf] (MSC service thread 1-2) JBAS012603: Unknown JSF version 'WAR_BUNDLES_JSF_IMPL'.  Default version 'main' will be used instead.

Not cool, JBoss. Not cool.

I've tried moving the jars to different places in the WAR/EAR. I've tried using Manifest files. I've tried colorfully adorned four letter expletives. JBoss is unmoved. Does anyone know why JBoss is rejecting my JSF advances? Can the relationship be fixed?

Using EAP 6.1 which I believe is equivalent to AS 7.2.

Thanks in advance,

Will

I think you have found a bug. I'll give the usual disclaimer that WAR_BUNDLES_JSF_IMPL is, and always has been, an unsupported feature. But that error message tells me something is wrong so it needs to be fixed.

Please open a jira issue and assign to me. https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY

Thanks Stan.

I created a ticket, but it auto-assigned to David Lloyd. I'm not sure how to reassign it to you. The ticket may be found here:

No problem. I reassigned it. I won't get to work on it until next week but I don't think it will take long once I have a chance to take a look.

I moved the Jira to the WildFly project. That's where the bug is fixed. If you want to patch an older version it's just a couple of lines of code. See https://github.com/ssilvert/wildfly/commit/030ad2a0d9b76b953fe5458684a8652b323fa976

HI Stan,

Is there any workaround for this.Because we are trying to use openshift in our organization and we definitely need this to build this in 6.1EAP(7.2 AS)

or is there any patch available?

As I said, the patch is here: https://github.com/ssilvert/wildfly/commit/030ad2a0d9b76b953fe5458684a8652b323fa976

It's a very small, simple fix. But you do need to build it yourself for whatever version of the server you are running.

If you are a support customer then just request an official patch to your supported platform.
