I am trying to upload a file using Apache tomhawk with JSF 2.0, but when I try to navigate to the corresponding view I am getting the following error:
javax.faces.view.facelets.TagAttributeException: /jsf/importReport.xhtml @30,51 value="#{import.uploadedFile}" Failed to parse the expression [#{import.uploadedFile}]

I am using the following JSF code for the view:
<ui:define name="content">
<div id="midbody" class="span-24">
<h:form enctype="multipart/form-data">
<t:inputFileUpload value="#{import.uploadedFile}"></t:inputFileUpload>
<h:commandButton action="#{import.getFile}"></h:commandButton>
</h:form>
</div>
</ui:define>
My managed bean is as follows:
public class ImportMB {
private UploadedFile uploadedFile;
public String getFile(){
String fileName = FilenameUtils.getName(uploadedFile.getName());
try {
InputStream myInput = uploadedFile.getInputStream();
System.out.println(fileName);
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
return "importReport";
}
Look your stacktrace, it says:
javax.el.ELException: The identifier [import] is not a valid Java identifier as required by section 1.19 of the EL specification (Identifier ::= Java language identifier). This check can be disabled by setting the system property org.apache.el.parser.SKIP_IDENTIFIER_CHECK to true.
Change the bean name will work.
