Additional information:
Spring version: 3.0.7
Spring Web flow version: 2.2.1
JSF implementation: Mojarra 2.0.9
I took the 'swf-booking-sample' as a basis and have the following setup ('main' is the flow I would like to execute):
Code:
+ WEB-INF
+ config
web-application-config.xml
webflow-config.xml
webmvc-config.xml
+ flows
+ main
main-flow.xml
testPage.xhtml
testPage2.xhtml
- layouts
web.xml
main-flow.xml:
