Question

I'm trying to use omnifaces' FullAjaxExceptionHandler, but I'm getting StringIndexOutOfBoundsException at org.omnifaces.util.Faces.normalizeViewId(Faces.java:312) [omnifaces-1.1.jar:1.1].

My web.xml file has the following error setup:

<error-page>
    <exception-type>java.lang.Throwable</exception-type>
    <location>/ErroServlet</location>
</error-page>

Where ErroServlet is my servlet that does the redirect to the right error page, depending on the request url (I have 2 different error pages).

I'm trying to use FullAjaxExceptionHandler, so that exception thrown during an ajax request are also treated.

My ErroServlet checks if it's an Ajax request using:

private boolean isXMLHttpRequest(HttpServletRequest request) {
    return "partial/ajax".equals(request.getHeader("Faces-Request"));
}

If true, it redirects using:

resp.setContentType("text/xml");
resp.getWriter().append("<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?>")
    .printf("<partial-response><redirect url=\"%s\"></redirect></partial-response>", url);

As I said, I'm getting a StringIndexOutOfBoundsException after the servlet is done. And also, the page does not visually redirect.

Solution

From the FullAjaxExceptionHandeler javadoc:

This exception handler will parse the web.xml and web-fragment.xml files to find the error page locations of the HTTP error code 500 and all declared specific exception types. Those locations need to point to Facelets files.

A plain servlet location is not supported as it is not possible to create an UIViewRoot around it, let alone to render it by JSF ViewHandler.

You'd better create a fullworthy Facelets file which includes/renders the request-specific error page content dynamically.

The StringIndexOutOfBoundsException is at its own however a separate bug which is already fixed in latest snapshot of OmniFaces 1.2.
