Session timeout causing problems with fireAjaxTransaction

[Judd Kirby]

Hi All,

 

Hope you can help, I've been having some issues with session timeout and fireAjaxTransaction.  I was going to comment on issue #90 (https://jsf-extensions.dev.java.net/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=90) however have not been approved as an observer yet so I thought I'd try the mailing list.  I have posted the issue on the java.net forums (http://forums.java.net/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=52621&tstart=0) and have copied the details below.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Kind Regards,

Judd.

 I'm working with Visual Web Pack and Glassfish v2ur2. I'm currently having an issue with the dynafaces events.

There is a filter set up to check session authentication on all page calls. If the session has timed out, a redirect to the login page is returned. This obviously doesn't cause any problems when the session is active, and the dynafaces works exactly as wanted. However, when the session times out, the next subsequent AJAX call causes the page to render inconsistently, mainly that all CSS styles are removed from some of the buttons.

It appears that the fireAjaxTransaction is receiving the login page as the response which is causing the issue. As a possible solution I tried to set up methods on the replaceElement and postReplace options, hoping to parse the response for an identifier that it was the login page and then redirect from the javascript if so. However, the callback functions work fine if the session is active, but stop getting called as soon as the session becomes inactive, therefore I cant tell if the return value is invalid.

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards.
