How to install PrimeFaces from maven in Netbeans? I get warning that taglibrary http://primefaces.org/ui does not exist

java, jsf, maven, netbeans, primefaces

Solution

I just followed the steps from Primefaces download guide:

http://primefaces.org/downloads.html

Downloading with Maven

PrimeFaces distributions are deployed at the PrimeFaces Repository, to let maven aware of this repository, add the following repository definition to your pom.xml in repositories section.

<repository>  
  <id>prime-repo</id>  
  <name>PrimeFaces Maven Repository</name>  
  <url>http://repository.primefaces.org</url>  
  <layout>default</layout>  
</repository>  

And add the dependency configuration as;

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.primefaces</groupId>
  <artifactId>primefaces</artifactId>
  <version>3.3</version>
</dependency>

After that, I added the Primefaces repository to my Nexus installation and it worked as expected.

I hope it helps you!

Problem

I tested to deploy this example from PrimeFaces. I don't know why it's not working. I get this error message: Warning: This page calls for xml namespace http://primefaces.org/ui declared with prefix p but no taglibtrary exist for that namespace I follow this tutorial to properly install the jar. I downloaded the Primefaces jar file and I added it to the `resources` directory into the WAR file. ``` <dependency> <groupId>org.primefaces</groupId> <artifactId>primefaces</artifactId> <version>3.3</version> <type>jar</type> </dependency> ``` I also added the Primefaces.jar file into Glassfish's /modules directory and I added the name of the module into default-web.xml file. It's not working. What am I missing? EDIT 2 I was correct the POM file is the problem: ``` <project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

I can use for example simple PrimeFaces tags without managedbeans for example `<p:spinner>` but if I want to use tags with managed beans the beans are not found. Maybe they are not visible?
