javax.el.MethodNotFoundException with ace:fileEntry component

i am trying to use ace:fileEntry component to upload files but i am keep getting errors that action method doesn't exist here's what i am trying:

1- ace:fileEntry component

<h:form>
        <ace:fileEntry id="fileEntryComp"
               label="File Entry"
               relativePath="uploaded"
               fileEntryListener="#{userBean.uploadFile}"/>



        <h:commandButton value="Upload File" action="#{userBean.uploadFile}"/> 



</h:form>

2- UserBean:

public void uploadFile(FileEntryEvent event) {
        FileEntry fileEntry = (FileEntry) event.getSource();
        FileEntryResults results = fileEntry.getResults();
        for (FileEntryResults.FileInfo fileInfo : results.getFiles()) {
            if (fileInfo.isSaved()) {
                log.debug("########### FILE IS SAVED ########");
            }
        }
    }

Exception:

javax.el.MethodNotFoundException: /uploadFiles.xhtml @32,81 action="#{userBean.uploadFile}": Method not found: com.myapp.beans.UserBean@2b066718.uploadFile()

how to set the method in this case ? someone will tell me that the method call in xhtml page should take a parameter as in the bean, but i will answer that i did as mentioned in the example here:

http://wiki.icefaces.org/display/ICE/FileEntry

please advise.

Solution

  • problem was that i was using action method with the command button which is not necessary, i just needed to add command button with no action, everything works fine now.
