RichFaces is not defined after adding a RF portlet to a page ------------------------------------------------------------ Key: GTNPORTAL-2581 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/GTNPORTAL-2581 Project: GateIn Portal Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Environment: GateIn 3.4.0.Final Reporter: Peter Palaga (1) Start a fresh GateIn 3.4.0.Final: cd tmp wget http://downloads.jboss.org/gatein/Releases/Portal/3.4.0.Final/GateIn-3.4.... unzip GateIn-3.4.0.Final-jbossas7.zip cd GateIn-3.4.0.Final-jbossas7/bin ./standalone.sh (2) Install gatein-bom-3.4 git clone https://github.com/ppalaga/gatein-bom.github cd gatein-bom mvn install -Dgpg.skip=true (3) Pack and deploy jsf2-rf4-hello-world-portlet: cd tmp git clone https://github.com/ppalaga/gatein-portal-quickstart.git cd gatein-portal-quickstart/jsf2-rf4-hello-world-portlet mvn package jboss-as:deploy (4) In web browser: * login as root http://127.0.0.1:8080/portal/login?username=root&password=gtn&ini... (5) In web browser: * Group > Administration > Application Registry > Import Applications * Site > Classic > Home * Site Editor > Edit Page * Drag jsf2-rf4-hello-world-portlet and drop it e.g. under the Home Page portlet * make the console with server log visible to you * Open developer tools (F12 in Chrome) and switch to Resources. Have a look at loaded scripts. Note that there are no PBR-related scripts there. (6) Hit Finish (Diskette Icon) in Page Editor dialog (7) UNEXPECTED: After hitting Finish, there comes a modal message in the browser window saying "RichFaces is not defined". * Note that while this message is being displayed, there is no change in the scripts compared to before (5). * Note that nothing happened in the server log. (8) Hit OK in the "RichFaces is not defined" alert. * Note that one or more PBR-related scripts were loaded. Some of them have error markers in them * Sometimes one or more org.exoplatform.portal.config.NoSuchDataExceptions appear in the server log The problem seems to be related to the fact that the inline JavaScript needed to render the rich:select component is evaluated before the needed js resources were loaded. After reloading the whole page or accessing the page from another session jsf2-rf4-hello-world-portlet works as expected. For further observations, define one more step: (9) * Site > Classic > Home * Site Editor > Edit Page * remove jsf2-rf4-hello-world-portlet from the page * Hit Finish (Diskette Icon) in Page Editor dialog When in the state after (8), one performs (9) and then again (5) and (6), "RichFaces is not defined" does not appear. "RichFaces is not defined" appears only when one signs out from the portal and signs in again between (9) and (5) of the previous scenario.
