upgrading JBOSS 5 CR1 with JSF 2.0.1

[Celinio Fernandes]

Hi,
I am trying to upgrade my JBoss 5.0 RC1 with the latest version of JSF, that is JSF 2.0.1 (mojarra-2.0.1-FCS-binary.zip)

I followed the instructions here :
http://www.jboss.org/community/wiki/UpgradeJBossAStoJSF2

If you are running JBoss AS 5.0 or greater, copy the jars to <JBOSS_HOME>/server/default/deploy/jbossweb.sar/jsf-libs.

I did that. But then i am facing an error due to a web.xml file missing from a project. (i have several projects in my enterprise application). That project is not a web app and does not need a web.xml file.

Here is the error I get :

How can i fix this ? Apparently it's a known issue. Thanks for helping.

[Celinio Fernandes]

Even if the project is not a webapp, I did try to add a WEB-INF/web.xml and it is still not working (i get another type of errors, this project being an EJB project).

So this work around is not working either.

Any suggestion ? Thanks.

[Jaikiran Pai]

Post the contents of your application.xml and also the output of:

jar -tf VenteEnLigneEJB.jar

[Celinio Fernandes]

Jaikiran Pai, thanks for helping.

I also posted that question here : http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4264136#4264136

you might want to check it.
Replacing the file jboss-faces.jar gives me errors unfortunately.

Any idea ?
thanks

Also,
to answer your question :

Am I misreading this:

JBoss 5.0 RC1

Is this really jboss-5.0.0.CR1? If so, this is a very ancient version of Jboss AS and there were significant changes between CR1 and GA. The statement that JSF 2.0.1 can be applied to JBoss AS 5.0 probably does not apply to CR1! You will need at least 5.0.0.GA.

[Jaikiran Pai]

Ah yes, i mention of CR1 did not catch my eye I was thinking that this post was about the latest stable release.
