Hi, Im trying to get the example projects working in myeclipse but with no luck.

first of all im unsure which implementation to use when adding jsf capabilities:
– Sun JSF Reference Implementation 1.1.01
– MyFaces 1.0.9
– MyFaces 1.1.1

moreover should I install jsp-2.0.jar ?

Then I have changed the following import:
//import net.sourceforge.myfaces.custom.fileupload.UploadedFile;
To -> import org.apache.myfaces.custom.fileupload.UploadedFile;

and
//import net.sourceforge.myfaces.custom.navmenu.NavigationMenuItem;
To -> import org.apache.myfaces.custom.navmenu.NavigationMenuItem;

Here is my web.xml:

</filter>
<filter-mapping>

<url-pattern>*.jsf</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>
</web-app>
************************************************************************

When I use MyFaces 1.1.1 without jsp2.0 I get the following error:
************************************************************************

Thanks in advance

Chris,
If you plan to use the MyFaces taglibs, then you need to use the MyFaces implementation, in which case I would suggest the most recent 1.x release in that drop down. And no you shouldn’t add jsp-2.0.jar unless you are deploying to an older app server, that is what the popup explains when it asks you if you want it or not.

Found the root of the problem, here it goes…

Problem: Resolving absolute uri for tld (ex. myfaces -> http://myfaces.sourceforge.net/tld/myfaces_ext_0_9.tld)
Solution: Find the JAR that provides your myfaces extensions tags, and open it up, go into the META-INF dir and open one of the TLD files, look around the 5th line or so for a tag: <url>link</url> or <uri>link</uri> use whatever the link part is to update your web.xml entries OR if you are using the default URI, update your <%@taglib%> entries in your JSP files. In my case -> http://myfaces.apache.org/extensions

Now its running but still with errors, especially bc. I have mixed libs -> that is org.apache.myfaces…. and net.sourceforge.myfaces… very clumsy

Also earlier I had problems with JBoss 4 using the following taglibs for jsf:

<%@ taglib uri=”http://java.sun.com/jsf/html&#8221; prefix=”h”%>
<%@ taglib uri=”http://java.sun.com/jsf/core&#8221; prefix=”f”%>

and had to change it to the following to get it working:

<%@ taglib uri=”/WEB-INF/html_basic.tld” prefix=”h” %>
<%@ taglib uri=”/WEB-INF/jsf_core.tld” prefix=”f” %>

Havent done this yet for the myfaces-examples…

Hope this helps others

Chris
