Hi, We are using tomcat version 6.0.20, apache version 2.2.14 and the application runs in Linux box having java version 1.6.0_18-rev-b09 installed. We use JSF in our application, myfaces 1.1.5.
When we try to start the applcaition instance we get the following exception trace and the application is failed to start. Mar 24, 2011 10:25:44 AM org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationContext log INFO: Validating faces configuration Mar 24, 2011 10:25:44 AM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext listenerStart SEVERE: Exception sending context initialized event to listener instance of class de.mindmatters.faces.spring.context.ContextLoaderListener java.lang.IllegalStateException: No Factories configured for this Application. This happens if the faces-initialization does not work at all - make sure that you properly include all configuration settings necessary for a basic faces application and that all the necessary libs are included. Also check the logging output of your web application and your container for any exceptions! If you did that and find nothing, the mistake might be due to the fact that you use some special web-containers which do not support registering context-listeners via TLD files and a context listener is not setup in your web.xml. A typical config looks like this; <listener> <listener-class>org.apache.myfaces.webapp.StartupServletContextListener</listener-class> </listener> at javax.faces.FactoryFinder.getFactory(FactoryFinder.java:90) at de.mindmatters.faces.spring.AbstractContextLoader.validateFacesConfiguration(AbstractContextLoader.java:106) at de.mindmatters.faces.spring.AbstractContextLoader.initWebApplicationContext(AbstractContextLoader.java:71) at de.mindmatters.faces.spring.AbstractContextLoaderListener.contextInitialized(AbstractContextLoaderListener.java:52) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext.listenerStart(StandardContext.java:3934) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext.start(StandardContext.java:4429) at org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase.addChildInternal(ContainerBase.java:791) at org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase.addChild(ContainerBase.java:771) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardHost.addChild(StandardHost.java:526) at org.apache.catalina.startup.HostConfig.deployDescriptor(HostConfig.java:630) at org.apache.catalina.startup.HostConfig.deployApps(HostConfig.java:514) at org.apache.catalina.startup.HostConfig.check(HostConfig.java:1288) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:39) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:25) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:597) at org.apache.tomcat.util.modeler.BaseModelMBean.invoke(BaseModelMBean.java:297) at com.sun.jmx.interceptor.DefaultMBeanServerInterceptor.invoke(DefaultMBeanServerInterceptor.java:836) at com.sun.jmx.mbeanserver.JmxMBeanServer.invoke(JmxMBeanServer.java:761) at org.apache.catalina.manager.ManagerServlet.check(ManagerServlet.java:1473) at org.apache.catalina.manager.ManagerServlet.deploy(ManagerServlet.java:824) at org.apache.catalina.manager.ManagerServlet.doGet(ManagerServlet.java:350) at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:617) at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:717) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.internalDoFilter(ApplicationFilterChain.java:290) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.doFilter(ApplicationFilterChain.java:206) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardWrapperValve.invoke(StandardWrapperValve.java:233) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContextValve.invoke(StandardContextValve.java:191) at org.apache.catalina.authenticator.AuthenticatorBase.invoke(AuthenticatorBase.java:525) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardHostValve.invoke(StandardHostValve.java:128) at org.apache.catalina.valves.ErrorReportValve.invoke(ErrorReportValve.java:102) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardEngineValve.invoke(StandardEngineValve.java:109) at org.apache.catalina.connector.CoyoteAdapter.service(CoyoteAdapter.java:293) at org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11AprProcessor.process(Http11AprProcessor.java:859) at org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11AprProtocol$Http11ConnectionHandler.process(Http11AprProtocol.java:574) at org.apache.tomcat.util.net.AprEndpoint$Worker.run(AprEndpoint.java:1527) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:619) Mar 24, 2011 10:25:45 AM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext start SEVERE: Error listenerStart Mar 24, 2011 10:25:45 AM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext start SEVERE: Context [/arrt-sit] startup failed due to previous errors It is working fine with 6.0.16 version of tomcat with all the other installed versions are same. Also we tried upgrading the myFaces version to 1.2 for 6.0.20 version but still the issue occurs. It seems to be an issue with tomcat, has the issue been reported already? Do we have any fix in 6.0.20 version for this? Regards Subash This communication is for informational purposes only.
