Primefaces command button does not update datatable

I have primefaces command button multiple update problem. Command button is inside a form and datatable is not.

I have tried:

update=":datalist1,form1" 
update=":datalist1 form1" 
update="datalist1 form1"
update=":#{p:component('datalist1')},form1"

form1 updates every time but still dattable does not update

Version info:
primefaces: 5.3 
jsf: org.glassfish 2.3.0-m04
spring: 4.2.3
and I use cdi for controller beans

    public void createPersonel(){
        System.out.println("Personel adding..");
        personelService.create(personel);
        personel=new Personel();
        System.out.println("Personel added");
    }

}

I have researched about primefaces command button update but all advices did not worked for me. Thank you in advance

Solution

  • It seems to me that the newly created personel it never added to the list. So you must for example say

    personels.add(personel);

    or 

    personels=personelService.findAll();

    in createPersonel(), or set personels to null and do a lazy load in getPersonels().
