>From your message I can see that you understand the naming convention for Managed-bean-name file, but are you including the entire path to the file? If you have webroot/myFolder/myFile.jsp, then the name is myFolder$myFile.
Just checking. -----Original Message----- From: David Miller [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, April 13, 2006 11:08 AM To: users@myfaces.apache.org Subject: Shale ViewController and MyFaces Greetings, I'm trying to use Shale's ViewController in a managed bean to execute some code when the bean first loads. I'm using a nightly build of shale-core and shale-tiger from 20060221. It all seems really simple but I can't get it to work. None of my ViewController methods are ever called (init(), prerender(), etc...). I've added & mapped the shale filter in my web.xml, added the chain listener to my web.xml, added all the dependant jars, and added a dummy chain-config and dialog-config to META-INF. My managed bean has the same name as my jsp (the jsp begins with a lower case letter and the bean an upper case letter but changing that had no effect). What else can I do? I don't know if my problem is related to MyFaces or to Shale. Thanks, David
