Never mind... found the issue. The Exadel's jsf-facelets.jar's version of LegacyMethodBinding is old and wasn't ever returning an ExpressionString. I got MyFaces 1.10 working with facelets 0.9.8 and now it is working
-----Original Message----- From: Andrew Robinson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, September 27, 2005 8:37 AM To: '[email protected]' Subject: Navigation is not working with facelets & from-action Setup: I am on MyFaces 1.1 on Tomcat 5.5 with the facelet libraries from the Exadel project wizard added. Any time I have an action with from-outcome but no from-action specified, everything works as expected. I can route to whichever view. When I add the from-action tag to my configuration, it calls my action and action listeners fine, but the requesting page is always reloaded (I never go to a new view). I have verified my "h:commandLink" components are within my "h:form" tag. Hierarchy: jsp:root/jsp:text/ui:composition/ui:define/h:form/table/tr/td/h:commandLink Command link code: ... <h:commandLink value="mylink" action="#{userBean.saveCurrentUser}"/> <t:saveState id="adminUserBean" value="#{userBean}"/> </h:form> ... (t = tomahawk namespace) My template is nothing more than a bunch of div tags & HTML table elements, no JSF logic really. Relevant tags in my faces-config.xml: ... <managed-bean> <managed-bean-name>userBean</managed-bean-name> <managed-bean-class>mypackage.UserBean</managed-bean-class> <managed-bean-scope>request</managed-bean-scope> </managed-bean> <navigation-rule> <from-view-id>/administration/*</from-view-id> <navigation-case> <from-outcome>edit-user</from-outcome> <to-view-id>/administration/user/edit.jsp</to-view-id> </navigation-case> <navigation-case> <from-action>#{userBean.saveCurrentUser}</from-action> <from-outcome>success</from-outcome> <to-view-id>/administration/user/list.jsp</to-view-id> </navigation-case> ... Code of saveCurrentUser: public String saveCurrentUser() { ... try { ... return "success"; } catch (Exception ex) { ...(logging)... return "failed"; } } ... The action to edit the user that contains an action listener works. (navigate from /administration/users/list.jsp to /administration/user/edit.jsp). The action to save the user successfully saves the user from what I can see (log is clear), but the page stays at /administration/user/edit.jsp instead of going back to the list.jsp. I am using *.jsp instead of something like *.xhtml since Excadel doesn't support anything but *.jsp at this point in time. I cannot figure out why the "from-action" is causing the navigation to fail. No matter what I try, I get the same results. I attempted to update my facelets libraries, but I messed up along the way and was getting incompatible classes across the jar files, so I just rolled back. The navigation handler seems to think the action is always null as seen in the log4j output: 113121 DEBUG [http-8080-Processor4] org.apache.myfaces.application.NavigationHandlerImpl - handleNavigation fromAction=null outcome=success no matching navigation-case found, staying on current ViewRoot Any assistance is appreciated. Thanks, Andrew BTW - this was orginally posted at the Java Forums, but the forums seem to be horrible in getting JSF/MyFaces support. http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=667310
