This Bugzilla instance is a read-only archive of historic NetBeans bug reports. To report a bug in NetBeans please follow the project's instructions for reporting issues.
I am following the tutorial "Validating and Converting User Input With the JSF Framework." In the section "Changing the Default Error Messages" the user is instructed to create a new propterties file called MyMessages. This properties file is used to override the default error message. However, when the app is deployed and run, it appears that the properties file does not get deployed, and the following exception occurs: "java.util.MissingResourceException: Can't find bundle for base name astrologer.ui.MyMessages, locale en" Either the tutorial needs to be updated, or there is a bug.
Reassigning to Ken
The tutorial was updated with the correct path to find the properties file. So there should be no error message, but there are still problems with the validation so i will leave this issue open until the validation problems are resolved. Currently, when completing the tutorial, the validation checks for empty birthday field, but is not correctly parsing the field to check if it is a number, in the past, etc. Also, the tutorial currently shows the final validation without the email field, which means the person should modify the jsp page to comment out that form filed. This is not ideal and they should not have to do this. Marking the issue as started.
the tutorial was updated and now correctly validates the date and email. closing issue
