Primefaces View Expired Exception at Dialog Showcase

268 views Asked by At

In our Application, we get a View Expired Exception when returning from a dialog with many (~40) input fields.

I tested it and I get the same exception at the primefaces showcase.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. go to https://www.primefaces.org/showcase/ui/df/nested.xhtml
  2. click View, then "go to level 2", then click on the x, then click "go to level 2 again", repeat this process around 40 times, then try to go to level 3

you will get redirected to https://www.primefaces.org/showcase/viewExpired.xhtml

I assume that this exception occurs because the site to which the dialog would return is no longer available because only 15 viewstates get saved.

When I increase the parameter

org.apache.myfaces.NUMBER_OF_VIEWS_IN_SESSION in the web.xml

to 200 I do not get the exception anymore.

Is there a way to avoid this exception without increasing the parameter, because we do not want to waste resources.

We also tried javax.faces.STATE_SAVING_METHOD = client and it worked to but then the network traffic was increased by a factor of 10 (2MB for every request)

EDIT I've got a sum column and the numbers in my input fields should always have two decimal digits, so my input fields look like this.

<p:inputText style="text-align:right;"
    rendered="#{attval.att.ac.catForNumericalData}"
    size="#{attval.att.inputlength}" value="#{attval.att.quantity}">
    <f:converter converterId="com.prosol.faces.converter.DoubleConverter" />
    <p:ajax event="keyup" update="attributeTable" delay="1000"/>
</p:inputText>
