Primefaces showcase deployed on tomcat style not loaded
Downloaded the source code from below link branch 8.0:
https://github.com/primefaces/primefaces-showcase
Deployed to Tomcat, the site is misaligned the styles are not loaded see screenshot. What am I missing? Why the site is not aligned properly?
TOMCAT: NO errors in tomcat logs
Glassfish:
Error occurred during deployment: Exception while loading the app : java.lang.IllegalStateException: ContainerBase.addChild: start: org.apache.catalina.LifecycleException: org.apache.webbeans.exception.WebBeansDeploymentException: java.lang.NullPointerException. Please see server.log for more deta
Wildfly:

As long as it deploys in one of the server I am good to go.
So the first thing you did is check if org.primefaces.webapp.FileUploadChunksServlet is actually in the PrimeFaces 8 jar and noticed it is not there. Then you checked the PrimeFaces 8 tag in the source of PrimeFaces and noticed it is also not there. Then you checked the PrimeFaces Master (8.0.x) and noticed it IS there Then you checked the PrimeFaces showcase source to see if there, besides the 8.0.x branch there is a 8.0 tag and noticed tere is not. So your conclusion was that the 8.0.x showcase is up to date with the master and an explicit version of the showcase at the time of releasing PrimeFaces 8.0 is missing.
So you then decided you have three options
- In the showcase source, go to the point in time of releasing PF 8 and download the source of that 'snapshot'
- File an issue in the PrimeFaces showcase https://github.com/primefaces/primefaces-showcase/issues to request a tag to be made (maybe in retrospect even)
- Do both
You then decided to do both and was happy because you could run the showcase locally and made the world a better place since you helped others in the future when the wanted to use the showcase source with a PrimeFaces community release.
