org.omnifaces.FACES_VIEWS_SCAN_PATHS only works when running with quarkus:dev

[newk5]

Extensionless mapping only seems to work when running the application with quarkus:dev.

After packaging the app with: mvn package and running the final jar, it doesn't work. There is no error message, just shows an empty page saying "Not found"

I have a feeling the bug is here:

@SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
	private static Set<String[]> getRootPathsAndExtensions(ServletContext servletContext) {
		Set<String[]> rootPaths = (Set<String[]>) servletContext.getAttribute(SCAN_PATHS);

		if (rootPaths == null) {
			rootPaths = new HashSet<>();
			rootPaths.add(new String[] { WEB_INF_VIEWS, null });
			Set<String> multiViewsPaths = new TreeSet<>(Collator.getInstance(ENGLISH)); // Makes sure ! is sorted before /.

			for (String rootPath : csvToList(servletContext.getInitParameter(FACES_VIEWS_SCAN_PATHS_PARAM_NAME))) {
				boolean multiViews = rootPath.endsWith("/*");

				if (multiViews) {
					rootPath = rootPath.substring(0, rootPath.lastIndexOf("/*"));
				}

				String[] rootPathAndExtension = rootPath.contains("*") ? rootPath.split(quote("*")) : new String[] { rootPath, null };
				rootPathAndExtension[0] = normalizeRootPath(rootPathAndExtension[0]);
				rootPaths.add(rootPathAndExtension);

				if (multiViews) {
					multiViewsPaths.add(rootPathAndExtension[0]);
				}
			}

			servletContext.setAttribute(SCAN_PATHS, unmodifiableSet(rootPaths));
			servletContext.setAttribute(MULTIVIEWS_PATHS, unmodifiableSet(multiViewsPaths));
		}

		return rootPaths;
	}

OmniFaces must not be scanning or calculating something correctly with Quarkus since Quarkus uses different paths /resources instead of /WEB-INF ?

Yea it could be. Quarkus has 2 packaging modes, the new "fast-jar" mode which is the default and quarkus.package.type=uber-jar which creates an uber jar. For now, uber-jar packaging mode is broken with myfaces (see here ), so I'm using "fast-jar" mode, for anyone else looking into this, make sure you're not using quarkus.package.type=uber-jar

Hey when I create a fast-jar iwth my Quarkus Faces showcase and run java -jar target/quarkus-app/quarkus-run.jar I am getting this error:

Caused by: java.lang.RuntimeException: Failed to start quarkus
        at io.quarkus.runner.ApplicationImpl.<clinit>(Unknown Source)
        ... 15 more

Have you seen this error before?

weird i had to add

        <dependency>
            <groupId>xerces</groupId>
            <artifactId>xercesImpl</artifactId>
            <version>2.12.1</version>
        </dependency>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>com.guicedee.services</groupId>
            <artifactId>xalan</artifactId>
            <version>1.2.0.3-jre17-rc1</version>
        </dependency>

to make it work.

Strange, I never had that error, nor do I have any of those dependencies.
I am on JDK17 and Quarkus 2.6.2.Final, MF 2.3-next-M6, Omnifaces 3.11.2 with Omnifaces-quarkus 1.4.0
