I have overridden the persist method in one of the beans to handle duplicate names. Now the weird thing is that upon catching a duplicate, it's still redirecting to the view page and does not show the error messages. Can anyone assist? | @Override | public String create() { | try { | return super.update(); | } catch (Exception e) { | e.printStackTrace(); | FacesMessage message = new FacesMessage("Name must be unique"); | FacesMessages.instance().addToControl("name", message); | return null; | } | } | View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4029753#...
