I use Web Flow and JSF, so they works well actually. But I am trying to find out alternative way for set default page different from redirecting on index.html.
The main problem is web analytics scripts don't work properly. I can't track user source fore home page.
The application run on Tomcat 8
Web.xml
<welcome-file-list>
<welcome-file>index.html</welcome-file>
</welcome-file-list>
index.html
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="0; URL=web/home-page">
</head>
</html>
UPDATE :
I replace index.html with index.jsp and I set response status as 301. At least it works for google analytics, so I'll check it out for other analytics tools.
But this solution still did not satisfy me.
Web.xml
<welcome-file-list>
<welcome-file>index.jsp</welcome-file>
</welcome-file-list>
index.jsp
<%
response.setStatus(301);
String path=(String)request.getAttribute("javax.servlet.forward.request_uri");
if(path==null){
path="web/home-page";
}
response.setHeader( "Location", path);
response.setHeader( "Connection", "close" );
%>
I would use spring security project instead of welcome files because JSF (or any view framework) is not aware how to resolve a view in welcome-file that is why your logic is not executing.
A possible solution is if you are using the spring security project. Add the following to your security config
<security:http auto-config="true" use-expressions="true">
<!--- config omitted for brevity -->
<security:session-management invalid-session-url="/index.jsp"/>
</security:http>
Again this is just a sample. You can also use other means to define rules. It is quite modular
<security:intercept-url pattern="/**" ....
Moreover, you will need to define a classless controller with the following defintion: (assuming you also are using Spring MVC with Webflow)
<mvc:view-controller path="/index.jsp" />
I think it's less cryptic to define intercept,forward,routing, etc... rules all in Spring Security config that way it is clear that any such rules are stored in one place.
Note: you might be able to keep your current setup and use that spring <mvc:view-controller path="/index.jsp" /> definition only to trigger the JSF to execute.

I'm using OmniFaces CDNResourceHandler to point my resources to a CDN, instead of local files.
I added this line in my XHTML file: <h:outputStylesheet library="twitter-bootstrap" name="bootstrap.min.css" />
And my faces-config.xml have this line:
<context-param>
<param-name>org.omnifaces.CDN_RESOURCE_HANDLER_URLS</param-name>
<param-value>
twitter-bootstrap:bootstrap.min.css=https://somehost/twitter-bootstrap/3.3.7/bootstrap.min.css
</param-value>
</context-param>
And I'm getting this error when access the page:
Unable to find resource twitter-bootstrap, bootstrap.min.css
Note: When I access the file at https://somehost/twitter-bootstrap/bootstrap.min.css I can download the file properly.
I'm using Mojarra under Wildfly configured to Development stage.
The resource handler is properly configured at faces-config.xml file.
<application>
<resource-handler>org.omnifaces.resourcehandler.CDNResourceHandler</resource-handler>
</application>
I did some tests, and I notice that the error doesn't occurs if I create an empty file bootstrap.min.css under WEBAPP_FOLDER/resources/twitter-bootstrap. If I delete the file, the errors occurs again.
Even I use CDN, do I need to keep resources locally?
The CDNResourceHandler is primarily intented to move auto-included JSF resources to a CDN, such as jsf.js file from <f:ajax>, or primefaces.js and jquery.js from PrimeFaces, or to automatically switch to a CDN when installed in production.
You don't need it in your case with a permanent CDN resource. Just use plain <link>.
<link rel="stylesheet" src="https://somehost/twitter-bootstrap/bootstrap.min.css" />
This is also explicitly mentioned in the CDNResourceHandler documentation.
For non-JSF resources, you can just keep using plain HTML <script> and <link> elements referring the external URL
Update: as you're not the first one who wondered about this, I've as per issue 122 bypassed this technical restriction for OmniFaces 2.6. In other words, you do not necessarily need a local resource anymore.
I Have a Project Structure like this :-Project Structure
I want only the home.xhtml to be accesible when user hits the url and the healthCheck and error should not be (test is temporary will be deleted).
I tried Placing the two xhtml files in detailed info folder but the css wont work
my css linking style -<link rel="stylesheet" href="../css/normalize.css"></link>
and also if we put he css apart the page loads but when i referesh the page
eg - localhost:9080/Dashboarddetails/detailedinfo/healthcheck.xhtml
it gives http 403 error as access in denied it only loads the first time.
I have used security constraint but it not working please help
<security-constraint>
<display-name>Restrict raw XHTML Documents</display-name>
<web-resource-collection>
<web-resource-name>XHTML</web-resource-name>
<url-pattern>/detailedinfo/*</url-pattern>
</web-resource-collection>
<auth-constraint />
</security-constraint>
<url-pattern>/detailedinfo/*.xhtml</url-pattern> did not work so used the above one
Our application is a Jee application includes the following technologies:
Spring
Spring Security
JSF 2.2
Spring Webflow
Spring MVC
Before login , Resources (images,css,js,..) have been loaded successfully :
<link href="/titi/javax.faces.resource/layout/layout.css.xhtml?ln=primefaces&v=5.1" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" />
<script src="/titi/javax.faces.resource/primefaces.js.xhtml?ln=primefaces&v=5.1" type="text/javascript"></script>
After Login , relative paths rendering was changed :
There is a new folder in the path which is /apps/ .
There is no .xhtml as extension .
__
<link href="/titi/apps/javax.faces.resource/layout/layout.css?ln=primefaces&v=5.1" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" />
<script src="/titi/apps/javax.faces.resource/primefaces.js?ln=primefaces&v=5.1" type="text/javascript" ></script>
What is the configuration should be added for Spring Security to not interfere in resources path ?
Why /apps/ ?
I search on my code to understand why apps , i note that apps token from web.xml :
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>Spring MVC Dispatcher Servlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/apps/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
You are taking the wrong approach and have the wrong assumptions. JSF and Spring MVC don't mix. See Using JSF as view technology of Spring MVC
I have created a web application using JSF 2.0. I got feedback from my friend saying I should do "Browser Caching" as I have many images.
However I don't know how to do same in JSF. Any idea/ hint would be appreciated.
Concept on what to be done would also work.
Just use <h:graphicImage name="..."> instead of <img src="...">. This way the default JSF resource handler will instruct the browser to cache them for 1 week by default, which is configureable with an implementation dependent context parameter, which is the following in case of Mojarra:
<context-param>
<param-name>com.sun.faces.defaultResourceMaxAge</param-name>
<param-value>3628800000</param-value> <!-- 6 weeks -->
</context-param>
Note, the same applies when using <h:outputScript> and <h:outputStylesheet> instead of <script> and <link rel="stylesheet">.
My all application is written with jsf 1.2
I want to use from this moment on facelets where xhtml files are .
So I have some main questions:
1.I want to
face one:upgrade to jsf 1.2 with servlets
face two:from there to upgrade to 2.0
would this two changes break my application ?
2.how to do this ? can some one explain to me ? I have been trying all day long to do it i had :
changed a file to xhtml amd changed his taglibs to xmlns such as :
<%# taglib prefix="a4j" uri="http://richfaces.org/a4j" %> will be converted to : xmlns:a4j="http://richfaces.org/a4j"
adding
<view-handler>
com.sun.facelets.FaceletViewHandler
</view-handler>
inside application in the faces config
changing file name from xxx.jsp to xxx.xhtml
adding
<context-param>
<param-name>javax.faces.DEFAULT_SUFFIX</param-name>
<param-value>.xhtml</param-value>
</context-param>
to web xml
inserting
f:view tag above all
the problem i am facing now
when *.jsf page is called the server says no page like this exists in the system...
when *.xhtml is called the page itself is blank and the server asks me to download it meaning a pop up with open and save options popes.
