Jarrod,
Can you give me some details about the project? What specification level web project is this? What capabilities have been added to it?

Can you make sure the JSF jars a present under the /lib directory of weblogic.?

The deployment within MyEclipse uses a configured Weblogic 10 server with the following configuration;

__Step 12 – Add Web Capabilities __

–> Right click on ***-war and select MyEclipse > Add Web Project Capabilities

* Web Root Directory – /src/main/webapp

* Web Context Root – /companyPortal

* Unselect create web.xml

* J2EE Spec Level – J2EE 5.0

* DO NOT Add J2EE libraries to build path

__Step 12b) – Add JSF Capabilities

–> Right click on ****-war and select MyEclipse > Add JSF Capabilities

The strange thing is I had this working about 4 months ago..

Any help would be greatly appreciated,

I’ve also done a full maven build of the war then deployed it to the autodeploy folder of weblogic and inspected it’s /lib folder. I’ve noticed a difference between what MyEclipse places in the /lib folder and the above. It is the provided jars for servlet/jsp;
<groupId>javax.servlet</groupId>
<version>2.5</version>
<artifactId>servlet</artifactId>
<scope>provided</scope>
<type>jar</type>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>javax.servlet</groupId>
<version>2.1</version>
<artifactId>jsp</artifactId>
<scope>provided</scope>

I’m not sure if this is causing the problem…

[jarrodwl]

Just validated my theory above. I re-deployed the MyEclipse deployment in my webogic autodeploy this time without the jsp and servlet jars.. it worked.. Is there a way in MyEclipse to specify that these jars do not get included with the deployed jars to the /lib folder?

[Loyal Water]

You can go to Windows > Prefs > MyEclipse > Java Enterprise Project > Web Project > > Deployment and uncheck “deploy jars on projects build path”. Let me know if that doesn’t help.

Hi Nipun,
I removed my deployment and attempted to re-introduce the web project to WebLogic 10, I again have been getting very inconsostent results. It doesn’t always deploy correctly. It’s the same project as above;
These are my selections while creating web project capabilities;
* Web Root Directory – /src/main/webapp
* Web Context Root – /<developer to decide>
* Unselect create web.xml
* J2EE Spec Level – J2EE 5.0
* DO NOT Add J2EE libraries to build path

After many attempts I was able to get it to deploy however now others on our team are having similar issues and I can’t figure out next steps.. Do you have a best practices or other recommendations for us to try??

Cheers,

Jarrod

jarrodwl ,
Did you setup MyEclipse with Eclipse Classic or Eclipse RCP? You need to setup MyEclipse with Eclipse Classic.

[jarrodwl]

Hi Nipun,
I installed MyEclipse with the following exe, MyEclipse_6.5.0GA_E3.3.2_Installer_A.exe (it’s the all-in-one install).

Jarrod,

I saw a few posts up that the deployment worked but then you mentioned that it’s a bit unpredictable, when it does fail, what is the problem?

If you are trying to deployed then redeploy to a running app server that will likely fail every time as the server has a read lock on the files. Once you do an exploded deployment however, MyEclipse will keep the remote resources up to date automatically as you save the files in the IDE.
