Attempting the jsf small tutorial demo:
I note lots of passive voice, which is not appropriate for a tutorial
… If I dont do it, it wont get done.. so no passive voice please…

Problems:
6 Create the message Bundle
step 2 create a new Java package
Error message: Package already exists
(???)
so I name it com.jsfdemox (???)

7 Connecting..through faces-config.xml
its not clear how to edit this:
When I click on it I get
“Editor could not be initialized”

what should I do?
this is a show-stopper, ie I am not sending money until its cleared up
cheers

so I try to use the existing demo project, which I downloaded into
D:\a\proj\JSFLoginDemo
but when I try to set the location to D:\a\proj\JSFLoginDemo
I get error message
D:\a\proj\ and D:\a\proj\JSFLoginDemo overlap
What could this mean??

If I set the location to D:\a\proj\
I get error message
D:\a\proj\ and D:\a\proj\ overlap
which has a nice truistic ring to it, but what does it mean?

Can you please post all the information we request in the [URL=http://www.myeclipseide.com/PNphpBB2+file-viewtopic-t-393.html]Posting Guidelines[/URL] thread at the top of this forum? That will give us some context so that we can determine if this is an installation issue, a configuration problem, or a bug. Thanks.

but when I try to set the location to D:\a\proj\JSFLoginDemo

You need to clarify what you mean “try to SET the location”, are you creating a new project? Are you editing your .project file and changing it’s location? Are you trying to import a project? Are you trying to create a new workspace?

2) how do I edit the faces-config.xml
3) In the demo tutorial section 6 part 2 how do I get around trh “Package already exists” error

How do I import a project that I have downloaded?

This is an Eclipse constraint. I think what might have happened is that you unzipped the project into your workspace and then tried to import it. Instead, try unzipping it to your Desktop, and then use File > Import to import it.

Any time you see errors like this, it means you are running incompatible versions of Eclipse and whatever plugin you are using… in this case MyEclipse. I think you may be using eiher a nightly build of Eclipse or M-build of the 3.0.x series OR you could be running the 3.8.4 BETA version for Eclipse 3.1.

Alternatively this could be caused by out of date plugin cache in your workspace, I would highly suggest that you edit your shortcut that you use to start Eclipse and add -clean to the end of it then start it up atleast once, then you can remove -clena. This will allow Eclipse to rebuild it’s plugin cache fresh.

1) how do I Import an exixting project without getting teh “overlap” error

See my comment above.

2) how do I edit the faces-config.xml

Double click on it, this will open the XML Editor so you can edit the source code. Maek sure the file is opened with the “MyEclipse XML Editor”.

3) In the demo tutorial section 6 part 2 how do I get around trh “Package already exists” error

The same way you would in a normal Java program, stop trying to create a package that already exists.

Old post, but ran into this error.
The tutorial instructs you to create the package “com.jsfdemo.bean” then instructs you to create “com.jsfdemo” which gives you this error.
Just ignore the 2nd package creation and add the message file in the “com.jsfdemo” package dir.

Good news! We’ve just updated the JSF tutorial in the Documentation section to be much more clear (we hope). Please give that a go nad see if it helps when you have time.
