JBoss 4.0.2 : problem '${flowExecutionId}' birthdate sample

[Jokum]

When using the Web Flow birthdate sample on JBoss 4.0.2 I keep getting this exception :

11:01:02,531 WARN  [RequestProcessor] Unhandled Exception thrown: class org.springframework.webflow.execution.NoSuchFlow
ExecutionException
11:01:02,531 ERROR [[action]] Servlet.service() for servlet action threw exception
org.springframework.webflow.execution.NoSuchFlowExecutionException: No executing flow could be found with id '${flowExec
utionId}' -- perhaps the flow has ended or expired? This could happen if your users are relying on browser history (typi
cally via the back button) that reference ended flows.; nested exception is java.lang.IllegalStateException: No session

When using the same war on Caucho Resin all is working just fine.

Can anybody please help me with this?

Kind regards,

Is JBoss 4.0.2 a Servlet 2.4/JSP 2.0 compliant container? Seems like it is not evaluating the "${flowExecutionId}" in the JSP and passing it as-is back to the server. The samples use JSP 2.0 for elagance and clarity, so you'll need a JSP 2.0 capable container to run them.

Yes, as long as you've got web.xml correctly configured, and are using the correct JSTL Standard 1.1 jar.
