[jboss-user] [JBoss Seam] - commandLink/commandButtton do not invoke action listener

I would like to update the values of the following check boxes in the database by using a form as shown below. | <h:form id="category_form"> | <h:dataTable value="#{categoryFinder.categories}" | border="1" var="category" | rendered="#{not empty categoryFinder.categories}"> | <h:column> | <f:facet name="header">Category</f:facet>#{category[0]} | </h:column> | <h:column> | <f:facet name="header">Assigned</f:facet> | <h:selectBooleanCheckbox id="categoryList" disabled="false" | value="#{category[1] > 0}" /> | </h:column> | <h:column> | <f:facet name="header">Preferred</f:facet> | <h:selectBooleanCheckbox id="PreferredList" disabled="false" | value="#{category[2] == 1}" /> | </h:column> | </h:dataTable> | <h:commandButton id="savecategory" value="Save" | action="#{categoryFinder.updateCategory}" /> | </h:form> | When I click the submit button, the page is rerendered and and the altered check boxes are saved. But the action listener categoryFinder.updateCategory is not invoked - which means no database update has been taken place. | @Stateful | @Name("categoryFinder") | @Scope(ScopeType.CONVERSATION) | public class categoryFinderBean implements Serializable, CategoryFinderInterface | { | @PersistenceContext | private EntityManager entityManager; | | @DataModel | private List categories; | | @RequestParameter | private String id; | | @Begin | @Factory("categories") | public void initCategories() | { | try | { | //This is a native query which uses a JOIN on several tables | String nativeQuery = "SELECT name, assigned, preferred FROM [...]"; | this.categories = entityManager.createNativeQuery(nativeQuery).getResultList(); | | } catch (NoResultException e) | { | // ignore | } | } | | @End | public void updateCategory() | { | return; | } | | @Destroy | @Remove | public void destroy() | { | } | } | I tried to stick to the examples in the Seam documentation. Is there any suitable reason why this happens? I've been looking for a solution the wohle day now :( View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4063593#...
