Or remove them from the "simple" sample and document them in the setup-document. The people for whom the defaults are ok, and that anyway wouldn't read the docs, they have a seed which is simple. For the others... they usually read the doc... regards Alexander

Yes, that might be an option. I generally thought it helps people if they see the possibilities there are right in the examples. Maybe a marker "optional" would help. regards, Martin On 7/25/07, Wolf Benz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: That's true Martin - there is a lot defaulted. Yet, if it's almost all defaulted, I think there's a case for leaving the web.xml much cleaner. Certainly the obvious ones could be better left out, it makes the web.xml only more verbose. It gives people the impression there's a lot to configure before you get MF to work. Look at all the setup issues of MF120 now: a lot of people(that would include me) then start to wonder whether perhaps it's perhaps due to one of all these params that is wrongly set, whereas that's(mostly) not the case. All that and those & their explanation could perhaps be better shifted to the project documentation. To my taste, I find that a little "cleaner" :-) -Wolf On 7/25/07, Martin Marinschek < [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > wrote: I believe your statement is entirely wrong. None of the MyFaces-web.xml parameter is necessary - they are all optional, with default values if they are not provided. For MyFaces - the implementation - you got nothing to configure additionally in comparison to the RI. The StartupServletContextListener is an issue with certain servlet-containers only, and it is certainly not our problem, but a problem with these servlet-containers. MyFaces doesn't require configuring this. For Tomahawk, there is one additional filter necessary. That's it. For performance tweaks, you might need one or two more settings. I wouldn't call that much. regards, Martin On 7/25/07, Wolf Benz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Perhaps I better started a new thread on this but as this is a good example: Wouldn't it be a good idea for much more and aggressive defaulting from MyFaces? Take the web.xml: merely using myfaces makes the poor thing go through the roof! There are a few Context pars you can't do without but... the pretty html, scroll, js, ... c'mon. This StartupServletContextListener is another good example, the AddStreamingresource Listener, ... it all just adds and adds. For newbies coming from RI this alone is a reason to run back, fast! Certainly as -as is pointed out in this thread as well- even doing do doesn;t guarantee a free ride. With every Myfaces project, I have had startup problems. Currently as well. (counter ticks 2 weeks now) It's setup is too complex. Also a more standardized approach would make troubleshooting much easier. It's a trend also, with reason. Look at annotations e.g. where you mostly only have to use them if you wish to override a default setting. -Wolf On 7/25/07, Martin Marinschek < [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > wrote: Hi guys, the StartupServletContextListener should automatically be run by the servlet container when it parses the tld. What you can do as a workaround: - declare the context-listener as explained in the stacktrace in your web.xml - use the MyFacesServlet instead of the FacesServlet In any case, make sure that the work and temp directories of the Tomcat are cleared, and that you have the MyFaces libraries available only in one version. I have had this problem quite often now - especially in Tomcat, and I'm quite desperate to find a solution for this. regards, Martin On 7/25/07, Wolf Benz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Indeed - and this is what made things already better for me - before (2.5 & 1.2 versions), I had weird startup errors. --> for the time being: better stick with versions 2.4 & 1.1 :-) -Wolf On 7/25/07, ncheltsov <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Hi, as much as I see, both documents are, like you say: 2.4 & 1.1? Wolf Benz wrote: Sorry - Look at the top of the 2 docs you cite: it refers to the version the document conforms to. At first I thought: I'm building a JSF1.2 app so I state: servlet v. 2.5(web.xml) & JSF-version 1.2 (in faces-config top) Yet, to my surprise, this gave me problems... Changed them back to 2.4 & 1.1 and the problems were gone. If you look at the demo apps Werner put online this morning, you'll see he also references 2.4 & 1.1 The "why" for this failure is not clear to me. As you state yourself: it shouldn't be like this, it really should be 2.5 & 1.2... OK like this? -Wolf On 7/24/07, ncheltsov <[EMAIL PROTECTED] > wrote: Hi, I don't really understand what you are saying! Can you give more explanations? I need to use JSF version 1.2, not 1.1.

The bleeb part is... it really should be 2.5 and 1.2, yet this gave me errors... Are the URLs wrong/not yet online (--> would SYSTEM & have the files locally solve the problem?) & @Matthias: is the StartupServletContextListener still necessary to declare in the web.xml? -Wolf On 7/24/07, Matthias Wessendorf <[EMAIL PROTECTED] > wrote: can you try this jetty version: <version>6.1.2rc0</version> On 7/24/07, ncheltsov <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi, I am trying to use myfaces 1.2 and I have the following error: > > No Factories configured for this Application.
