In addition to upgrading MyFaces, I had to upgrade Tomahawk by changing the dependency's artifactId to tomahawk20. I was also able to remove the following listener from my web.xml:

<listener>
   <listener-class>org.apache.myfaces.webapp.StartupServletContextListener</listener-class>
<listener>

After that, I discovered that MyFaces uses a new URI (/javax.faces.resource/) for serving up some of its resource files. I kindly asked Spring Security to ignore these requests by adding the following to my security.xml file.

<intercept-url pattern="/javax.faces.resource/**" filters="none"/>

Since JSF 2 includes Facelets by default, I tried removing Facelets as a dependency. After doing this, I received the following error:

ERROR [308855416@qtp-120902214-7] ViewHandlerWrapper.fillChain(158) | Error instantiation parent Faces ViewHandler

Figuring this was caused by the following element in my web.xml ...

<context-param>
  <param-name>org.ajax4jsf.VIEW_HANDLERS</param-name>
   <param-value>com.sun.facelets.FaceletViewHandler</param-value>
</context-param>

... I removed it and tried again. This time I received a NoClassDefFoundError:

Since everything seemed to work with Facelets in the classpath, I decided to save this headache for a later date. I entered two issues in AppFuse's JIRA, one for removing Facelets and one for replacing Ajax4JSF with RichFaces.

The next issue I encountered was redirecting from AppFuse's password hint page. The navigation-rule for this page is as follows:

navigation-rule>
    <from-view-id>/passwordHint.xhtml</from-view-id>
    <navigation-case>
       <from-outcome>success</from-outcome>
       <to-view-id>/login</to-view-id>
        <redirect/>
   </navigation-case>
</navigation-rule>

With JSF 2.0, the rule changes the URL to /login.xhtml when redirecting (where it was left as /login with 1.2) and it was caught by the security setting in my web.xml that prevents users from viewing raw templates.

<security-constraint>
    <web-resource-collection>
        <web-resource-name>Protect XHTML Templates</web-resource-name>
        <url-pattern>*.xhtml</url-pattern>
    </web-resource-collection>
    <auth-constraint/>
</security-constraint>

To solve this issue, I had to make a couple of changes:

• Comment out the security-constraint in web.xml and move it to Spring Security's security.xml file.

  <intercept-url pattern="/**/*.xhtml" access="ROLE_NOBODY"/>

• Add a rule to urlrewrite.xml that redirects back to login (since login.xhtml doesn't exist and I'm using extensionless URLs).

  <rule match-type="regex">
      <from>^/login.xhtml$</from>
      <to type="redirect">%{context-path}/login</to>
  </rule>
  

After getting the Password Hint feature passing in the browser, I tried running the integration tests (powered by Canoo WebTest). The Password Hint test kept failing with the following error:

[ERROR] /Users/mraible/dev/appfuse/web/jsf/src/test/resources/web-tests.xml:51: JavaScript error loading
page http://localhost:9876/appfuse-jsf-2.1.0-SNAPSHOT/passwordHint?username=admin: syntax error (http://
localhost:9876/appfuse-jsf-2.1.0-SNAPSHOT/javax.faces.resource/oamSubmit.js.jsf?ln=org.apache.myfaces#122)

Figuring this was caused by my hack to submit the form when the page was loaded, I turned to Pretty Faces, which allows you to call a method directly from a URL. After adding the Pretty Faces dependencies to my pom.xml, I created a src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/pretty-config.xml file with the following XML:

<url-mapping>
    <pattern value="/editProfile"/>
    <view-id value="/userForm.jsf"/>
    <action>#{userForm.edit}</action>
</url-mapping>

<url-mapping>
    <pattern value="/passwordHint/#{username}"/>
    <view-id value="/passwordHint.jsf"/>
    <action>#{passwordHint.execute}</action>
</url-mapping>

This allowed me to remove both editProfile.xhtml and passwordHint.xhtml, both of which simply auto-submitted forms.

At this point, I figured I'd be good to go and ran my integration tests again. The first thing I discovered was that ".jsf" was being tacked onto my pretty URL, most likely by the UrlRewriteFilter. Adding the following to my PasswordHint.java class solved this.

if (username.endsWith(".jsf")) {
    username = username.substring(0, username.indexOf(".jsf"));
}

The next thing was a cryptic error that took me a while to figure out.

DEBUG [1152467051@qtp-144702232-0] PasswordHint.execute(38) | Processing Password Hint...

        at javax.faces.webapp.FacesServlet.service(FacesServlet.java:189)

Digging into the bowels of MyFaces, I discovered a class was looking for a viewId with an extension and no view-id was being set. Adding the following to the top of my execute() method solved this.

getFacesContext().getViewRoot().setViewId("/passwordHint.xhtml");

After making this change, all AppFuse's integration tests are passing and the upgrade seems complete. The only other issues I encountered were logging-related. The first is an error about Tomahawk that doesn't seem to affect anything.

Mar 5, 2011 6:44:01 AM com.sun.facelets.compiler.TagLibraryConfig loadImplicit

The second is excessive logging from MyFaces. As far as I can tell, this is because MyFaces switched to java.util.logging instead of commons logging. With all the frameworks that AppFuse leverages, I think it has all the logging frameworks in its classpath now. I was hoping to fix this by posting a message to the mailing list, but haven't received a reply yet.

After successfully upgrading AppFuse, I turned to AppFuse Light, where things were much easier.
