inputCalendar - absolute uri problem

[madhuri madhuri]

Hi there,
I am trying to use the MyFaces extension component <t:inputCalendar> in my application.
I have the tag lib included as

 
<%@ taglib uri="http://myfaces.apache.org/tomahawk" prefix="t"%>   

I have the extensions filter implemented in my web.xml file as

     <filter>
        <filter-name>MyExtensionsFilter</filter-name>
        <filter-class>org.apache.myfaces.component.html.util.ExtensionsFilter</filter-class>
        <init-param>
            <param-name>uploadMaxFileSize</param-name>
            <param-value>100m</param-value>
            <description>Set the size limit for uploaded files.
                Format: 10 - 10 bytes
                        10k - 10 KB
                        10m - 10 MB
                        1g - 1 GB
            </description>
        </init-param>
        <init-param>
            <param-name>uploadThresholdSize</param-name>
            <param-value>100k</param-value>
            <description>Set the threshold size - files
                    below this limit are stored in memory, files above
                    this limit are stored on disk.
 
                Format: 10 - 10 bytes
                        10k - 10 KB
                        10m - 10 MB
                        1g - 1 GB
            </description>
        </init-param>
    </filter>
    <filter-mapping>
        <filter-name>MyExtensionsFilter</filter-name>
        <url-pattern>*.jsf</url-pattern>
    </filter-mapping>
    <filter-mapping>
        <filter-name>MyExtensionsFilter</filter-name>
        <url-pattern>/faces/*</url-pattern>
    </filter-mapping>   

I have the tomahawk.jar included in my classpath.

The problem is: I get the following

 11:28:55,445 ERROR [[jsp]] Servlet.service() for servlet jsp threw exception
org.apache.jasper.JasperException: The absolute uri: <a href="http://myfaces.apache.org/tomahawk" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://myfaces.apache.org/tomahawk</a> cannot be resolved in either web

        at org.apache.jasper.compiler.TagLibraryInfoImpl.<init>(TagLibraryInfoImpl.java:147)   

Can anybody help me with this? Am I missing out something?

Whether Apache MyFaces supports only JSF pages ? Is it support JSP pages?

Hi there,

Whether Apache MyFaces supports only JSF pages ? Is it support JSP pages?

Your question is not clear. Could you please throw more light on it?

FYI,
The app server I am using is JBoss and I am able to use the myfaces basic components.

JSF pages are jsp pages.

This error can occur because either:

A) the tomahawk jar is not in the webapp's WEB-INF/libs directory

B) The URI in the TLD in the tomahawk jar doesn't match the requested URI (http://myfaces.apache.org/tomahawk)

C) The tomahawk jar doesn't contain a TLD (though that isn't likely).

Or more correctly, JSP pages are a (the most common?) way to define JSF pages.

I did not have the tomahawk jar in the webapp's WEB-INF/lib directory. After having the jar in place, I get this new exception.

For some reason, looks like the entire reply is not posted.... !!

Here is my jsf code:

 <%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html" prefix="h"%>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core" prefix="f"%>
<%@ taglib uri="http://myfaces.apache.org/tomahawk" prefix="t"%>
<html>
  <head>
    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="styles.css"/>
  </head>
  <body>
    <f:view>
      <h:form id="dateCalendar">
        <t:inputDate value="#{dateBean.date}" popupCalendar="true"/>
        <h:commandButton value="Submit"/>
        <p>You entered <h :-o	 utputText value="#{dateBean.date}"/></p>
      </h:form>
      <h:form>
        <t:inputCalendar value="#{dateBean.date}" currentDayCellClass="currentDay"/>
      </h:form>
    </f:view>
  </body>
</html>   

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks and regards,

Can you please post the code for the backing bean? That may shed some light...

Cheers!

JSF pages usually are JSP pages. The can be things like WAP.

But, in this case, not.

I found this in my web.xml:

<listener><!-- Attach myfaces factory to the servlet -->
<listener-class>org.apache.myfaces.webapp.StartupServletContextListener</listener-class>
</listener>

I know that there's an extra item of context that MyFaces requires or a few of the components won't work right, and it's either this one or the html.util.extensionsFilter. I just forget which. It's documented on the myFaces website (though easy to miss).
