get exception when nagivating in spring web flow 2.2 release [SWF-1393]

[spring-operator]

James opened SWF-1393 and commented

I am using

Myfaces 2.0.1 RichFaces 3.3.3 SWF 2.2

I can start the Spring Web Flow. So the initial view state in SWF is rendered correctly. Once I start navigation in SWF. I got the following exception. I don't have the issue when using SWF 2.1.

Here is snapshot of the RichFaces code.

<a4j:support event="onclick" action="CancelAppt" onsubmit="showCancelModalPanelLeftBar('#{donation.appointmentDateTimeDisplay}');"> <a4j:actionparam id="cancelDonationAppointmentIdLeftBar" name="selectedAppointmentId" value="#{donation.appointmentId}" assignTo="#{myAppointmentsView.selectedAppointmentId}" /> </a4j:support>

Rossen Stoyanchev commented

This exception is not surprising. As indicated in the blog post (http://blog.springsource.com/2010/08/05/spring-web-flow-2-2-0-m1-released) partial state saving is not yet supported for Apache MyFaces. It needs to be disabled through the "javax.faces.PARTIAL_STATE_SAVING" context parameter.

I already disabled the partial state saving when I tested the code. Here is the configuration in my web.xml.

<context-param>
    <param-name>javax.faces.PARTIAL_STATE_SAVING_METHOD</param-name>
    <param-value>false</param-value>
</context-param>
