I'm having similar difficulties getting ADF Faces to run in the portal. I've stripped my WAR file down to the bare minimum. It contains a "web.xml" file containing JSF and ADF Faces configuration entries. I also have a minimal "faces-config.xml" file. There are no JSPs or managed beans at this point and I deleted all of the "portal*.xml" files. When I deploy this WAR to a copy of JBoss 4.0.5.GA without the Portal SAR, it deploys without any problems. However, when I deploy the same WAR to a copy of JBoss containing the Portal SAR, I get the exception listed below. I'm using JBoss Portal 2.6 ALPHA2. | 18:03:11,193 ERROR [STDERR] Mar 1, 2007 6:03:11 PM oracle.adf.view.faces.webapp.AdfFacesFilter init | SEVERE: null | java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: No ClassLoaders found for: oracle.adfinternal.view.faces.webapp.AdfFacesFilterImpl | at org.jboss.mx.loading.LoadMgr3.beginLoadTask(LoadMgr3.java:306) | at org.jboss.mx.loading.RepositoryClassLoader.loadClassImpl(RepositoryClassLoader.java:511) | at org.jboss.mx.loading.RepositoryClassLoader.loadClass(RepositoryClassLoader.java:405) | at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:251) | at oracle.adf.view.faces.webapp.AdfFacesFilter.init(AdfFacesFilter.java:46) | at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterConfig.getFilter(ApplicationFilterConfig.java:223) | at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterConfig.setFilterDef(ApplicationFilterConfig.java:304) | at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterConfig.<init>(ApplicationFilterConfig.java:77) | at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext.filterStart(StandardContext.java:3634) | at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) | at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:39) | at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:25) | at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:585) | at org.jboss.portal.server.deployment.PortalWebTomcat5App.startFilter(PortalWebTomcat5App.java:120) | at org.jboss.portal.server.deployment.PortalWebTomcat5App.instrument(PortalWebTomcat5App.java:100) | at org.jboss.portal.server.deployment.jboss.ServerDeployer.instrument(ServerDeployer.java:289) | at org.jboss.portal.server.deployment.jboss.ServerDeployer.deploy(ServerDeployer.java:244) | at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) | at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:39) | at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:25) | at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:585) | at org.jboss.mx.interceptor.ReflectedDispatcher.invoke(ReflectedDispatcher.java:155) | at org.jboss.mx.server.Invocation.dispatch(Invocation.java:94) | at org.jboss.mx.server.Invocation.invoke(Invocation.java:86) | at org.jboss.mx.server.AbstractMBeanInvoker.invoke(AbstractMBeanInvoker.java:264) | at org.jboss.mx.server.MBeanServerImpl.invoke(MBeanServerImpl.java:659) | at org.jboss.mx.util.MBeanProxyExt.invoke(MBeanProxyExt.java:210) | at $Proxy143.deploy(Unknown Source) | | View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4024407#...
