A tricky JSF exception
« Layered Ajax Security | Main | Upside Down Video Feed »One of the trickier JSF exceptions we've run into is an UnsupportedOperationException on application startup. This exception is misleading because it's actually thrown during the failure to create a formatted error message, causing the original exception to be lost. You'll see something like the following:
java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException at com.sun.faces.config.ConfigureListener$InitFacesContext.getViewRoot(ConfigureListener.java:1690) at com.sun.faces.util.MessageFactory.getMessage(MessageFactory.java:113) at com.sun.faces.util.MessageUtils.getExceptionMessageString(MessageUtils.java:277) at com.sun.faces.util.Util.createInstance(Util.java:477) at com.sun.faces.config.ConfigureListener.configure(ConfigureListener.java:578) at com.sun.faces.config.ConfigureListener.configure(ConfigureListener.java:503) at com.sun.faces.config.ConfigureListener.contextInitialized(ConfigureListener.java:402) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext.listenerStart(StandardContext.java:3830) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext.start(StandardContext.java:4337) at org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase.addChildInternal(ContainerBase.java:791) at org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase.addChild(ContainerBase.java:771) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardHost.addChild(StandardHost.java:525) at org.apache.catalina.startup.HostConfig.deployWAR(HostConfig.java:825) at org.apache.catalina.startup.HostConfig.deployWARs(HostConfig.java:714) at org.apache.catalina.startup.HostConfig.deployApps(HostConfig.java:490) at org.apache.catalina.startup.HostConfig.check(HostConfig.java:1206) at org.apache.catalina.startup.HostConfig.lifecycleEvent(HostConfig.java:293) at org.apache.catalina.util.LifecycleSupport.fireLifecycleEvent(LifecycleSupport.java:117) at org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase.backgroundProcess(ContainerBase.java:1337) at org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase$ContainerBackgroundProcessor.processChildren(ContainerBase.java:1601) at org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase$ContainerBackgroundProcessor.processChildren(ContainerBase.java:1610) at org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase$ContainerBackgroundProcessor.run(ContainerBase.java:1590) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:613)
The actual line to make note of is:
com.sun.faces.config.ConfigureListener.configure(ConfigureListener.java:578)
indicating that a ViewHandler, VariableResolver, etc. defined in faces-config.xml is missing (a .jar file is missing) or failing during initialization (in this case, a NavigationHandler is failing instantiation).
