Can't update password using Hibernate - java

I'm using Hibernate + JSF + PrimeFaces. Now I wanna update password of admin but I always get error dialog. I can't figure out what wrong in my code. Hope anyone suggest me.
loginBean (SessionScoped)
public class loginBean {
private Users username;
private UsersDao userdao;
/** Creates a new instance of loginBean */
public loginBean() {
userdao = new UsersDao();
username = new Users();
}
public Users getUsername() {
return username;
}
public void setUsername(Users username) {
this.username = username;
}
public void updateUser(){
String msg;
if(userdao.updateUser(username)){
msg = "Updated Successfully!";
}else{
msg = "Error. Please check again!";
}
FacesMessage message = new FacesMessage(FacesMessage.SEVERITY_INFO, msg, null);
FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().addMessage(msg, message);
}
}
UserDAO.java
public class UsersDao {
public boolean updateUser(Users user){
boolean flag;
Session session = HibernateUtil.getSessionFactory().getCurrentSession();
try{
session.beginTransaction();
session.save(user);
session.beginTransaction().commit();
flag = true;
}catch(Exception e){
flag = false;
session.beginTransaction().rollback();
}
return flag;
}
}
xhtml
<p:growl id="growl" showDetail="true" life="3000" />
<h:form id="tab">
<h:outputLabel>Password</h:outputLabel>
<h:inputSecret value="#{loginBean.username.password}" />
<p:commandButton id="loginButton" value="Login" update=":growl" ajax="false" action="#{loginBean.updateUser}"/>
</h:form>

You're actually performing a save operation into the Session, instead of an update one, that's why you've got a Violation of PRIMARY KEY exception. You're telling Hibernate to add a new user with the same credentials, which is constrained by the Data Base.
In addition, and unrelated to the concrete problem, you should change your Users class name to User, as it refers to a concrete user.

NullPointer Exception - JSF Event Handling ( ValueChangeListener )

I am learning JSF Event Handling and when I try to run some sample code, I am getting a Null Pointer Exception.
This is my index.xhtml snippet,
<h:form>
<h2>Implement valueChangeListener</h2>
<hr />
<h:panelGrid columns="2">
Selected Locale:
<h:selectOneMenu value="#{userData.selectedCountry}" onchange="submit()">
<f:valueChangeListener type="com.cyb3rh4wk.test.LocaleChangeListener" />
<f:selectItems value="#{userData.countries}" />
</h:selectOneMenu>
Country Name:
<h:outputText id="countryInterface" value="#{userData.selectedCountry}" />
</h:panelGrid>
</h:form>
UserData.java
#ManagedBean(name = "userData", eager = true)
#ApplicationScoped
public class UserData implements Serializable{
private static Map<String, String> countryMap;
private String selectedCountry = "United Kingdom";
static {
countryMap = new LinkedHashMap<String, String>();
countryMap.put("en", "United Kingdon");
countryMap.put("fr", "French");
countryMap.put("de", "German");
countryMap.put("def", "Default");
}
public String getSelectedCountry() {
return selectedCountry;
}
public void setSelectedCountry(String selectedCountry) {
this.selectedCountry = selectedCountry;
System.out.println("Locale set");
}
public Map<String, String> getCountries() {
return countryMap;
}
public void localeChanged(ValueChangeEvent event) {
selectedCountry = event.getNewValue().toString();
}
}
LocaleChangeListener.java
public class LocaleChangeListener implements ValueChangeListener {
#Override
public void processValueChange(ValueChangeEvent event) throws AbortProcessingException {
UserData userData = (UserData) FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getSessionMap().get("userData");
String newLocale = event.getNewValue().toString();
if (newLocale != null)
userData.setSelectedCountry(newLocale);
else
userData.setSelectedCountry("Default");
}
}
When I run these on Glassfish Server, I get an error,
java.lang.NullPointerException
at com.cyb3rh4wk.test.LocaleChangeListener.processValueChange(LocaleChangeListener.java:25)
at com.sun.faces.facelets.tag.jsf.core.ValueChangeListenerHandler$LazyValueChangeListener.processValueChange(ValueChangeListenerHandler.java:128)
at javax.faces.event.ValueChangeEvent.processListener(ValueChangeEvent.java:134)
Can anyone help me with this ?
You are getting NullPointerException because userData is not found in the session scope.
The reason this is happening is that you put the userData in the application scope (#ApplicationScoped annotation on your managed bean) and searching it in the session scope.
Eventhough you verified that userData is null it still prints Locale set because the bean is in the application scope as described in 2. above.
So what is the solution? Either change #ApplicationScoped to #SessionScoped or access your userData by changing:
UserData userData = (UserData) FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getSessionMap().get("userData");
to
FacesContext ctx = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
UserData userData = (UserData)ctx.getExternalContext().getApplicationMap().get("userData");

Apache Tapestry user logged in feature

I am trying to create a login feature for my apache tapestry website, where after logging in, instead of the 'Log In' and 'Register' button, the email of the logged user should be displayed, along with a 'Log Out' button.
Could anyone please tell how should this be implemented the best way?
I can't seem to figure out how should i detect if the user is logged in, in the frontend part, in order to display a different menu options (i am new in tapestry).
Best regards, Marius.
Authentication (of which login is a part) is very application specific. How you define a User (or do you call it a "Customer", for example) is not something the framework does.
Typically, you will have a SessionStateObject representing your User. You can then use something like this in your layout:
<t:if test="user">
<t:logoutLink/>
<p:else>
<t:signInForm/>
</t:if>
Again, components LogoutLink and SignInForm are for you to implement.
The user may be exposed from the Java code as:
#Property
#sessionState(create=false)
private User user;
This says that the user field is linked to a value stored in the HTTP session; further, the User will not be created when the field is first read; instead, your SignInForm component should assign to its user field.
After a little bit of research regarding this matter, i found the following approach:
1) I created an Authenticator interface
public interface Authenticator {
Users getLoggedUser();
boolean isLoggedIn();
void login(String email, String password) throws AuthenticationException;
void logout();
}
2) Also created an AuthenticatorImpl.java class that implements that interface
public class AuthenticatorImpl implements Authenticator {
public static final String AUTH_TOKEN = "authToken";
#Inject
private StartDAO dao;
#Inject
private Request request;
public void login(String email, String password) throws AuthenticationException
{
Users user = dao.findUniqueWithNamedQuery("from Users u where u.Email = '" + email + "' and u.Password = '" + password + "'");
if (user == null) { throw new AuthenticationException("The user doesn't exist"); }
request.getSession(true).setAttribute(AUTH_TOKEN, user);
}
public boolean isLoggedIn()
{
Session session = request.getSession(false);
if (session != null) { return session.getAttribute(AUTH_TOKEN) != null; }
return false;
}
public void logout()
{
Session session = request.getSession(false);
if (session != null)
{
session.setAttribute(AUTH_TOKEN, null);
session.invalidate();
}
}
public Users getLoggedUser()
{
Users user = null;
if (isLoggedIn())
{
user = (Users) request.getSession(true).getAttribute(AUTH_TOKEN);
}
return user;
}
}
3) Created the corresponding binding in the AppModule.java class
public static void bind(ServiceBinder binder)
{
binder.bind(StartDAO.class, StartDAOImpl.class);
binder.bind(Authenticator.class, AuthenticatorImpl.class);
}
4) And on my Layout.java page i used it in the following way
#Property
private Users user;
#Inject
private Authenticator authenticator;
void setupRender()
{
if(authenticator.getLoggedUser().getAccountType().equals("Administrator")){
administrator = authenticator.getLoggedUser();
}
user = authenticator.getLoggedUser();
}
Object onLogout(){
authenticator.logout();
return Login.class;
}
Layout.tml
<t:if test="user">
<span class="navbar-right btn navbar-btn" style="color: white;">
Welcome ${user.Name}! <a t:type="eventLink" t:event="Logout" href="#">(Logout)</a>
</span>
</t:if>
<t:if negate="true" test="user">
<span class="navbar-right">
<t:pagelink page="user/create" class="btn btn-default navbar-btn">Register</t:pagelink>
<t:pagelink page="user/login" class="btn btn-default navbar-btn">Sign in</t:pagelink>
</span>
</t:if>
This worked for me without any problems. Hope that it helps others.
Best regards, Marius.

how to stop already signedIn user to sign in from other browser

I have a login funcitonality in my application ,
where i am able to store the user in a session
and i am also able to stop user to signIn , if he is already Signed in on the same browser ..
But if a signedIn user tries to logIn again from a DIFFERENT browser i am not able to stop him .
here is the code..
I am using this
session=getThreadLocalRequest().getSession(true);
User loggedInUser = (User) session.getAttribute("user");
Now this loggedInUser have the user object if a loggedInUser tries to get in the application from the SAME browser in another tab (SO it works for me)
BUT this loggedInUser is null if a loggedInUser tries to get in the application from the DIFFERENT browser(SO its not working for me)
here is the code..
public User signIn(String userid, String password) {
String result = "";
ApplicationContext ctx = new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext(
"applicationContext.xml");
MySQLRdbHelper rdbHelper = (MySQLRdbHelper) ctx.getBean("ManagerTie");
User user = (User) rdbHelper.getAuthentication(userid, password);
if(user!=null)
{
session=getThreadLocalRequest().getSession(true);
User loggedInUser = (User) session.getAttribute("user");
if(loggedInUser != null && user.getId() == loggedInUser.getId()){
user.setId(0);
}else{
session=getThreadLocalRequest().getSession(true);
session.setAttribute("user", user);
}
}
return user;
I am using JAVA , GWT
Yes by storing static map on server side,Which stores User Id as a key and Session as value.
Here is working code from my bag directly.
class SessionObject implements HttpSessionBindingListener {
User loggedInUser;
Logger log = Logger.getLogger(SessionObject.class);
public SessionObject(User loggedInUser) {
this.loggedInUser=loggedInUser;
}
public void valueBound(HttpSessionBindingEvent event) {
LoggedInUserSessionUtil.getLogggedUserMap()
.put(loggedInUser, event.getSession());
return;
}
public void valueUnbound(HttpSessionBindingEvent event) {
try {
LoggedInUserSessionUtil.removeLoggedUser(loggedInUser);
return;
} catch (IllegalStateException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
Java tip I followed and Java2s link while I developed.

Struts2 if tag not working

I am writing a login page that when a invalid user tries to login I redirect to the login action with a error parameter equal to 1.
private String username;
private String password;
private int error;
#Override
public String execute()
{
//validate user input
if (username == null || password == null || username.isEmpty() || password.isEmpty())
{
error = 2;
return LOGIN;
}
LoginModel loginModel = new LoginModel(username, password);
HttpBuilder<LoginModel, User> builder = new HttpBuilder<LoginModel, User>(User.class);
builder.setPath("service/user/authenticate");
builder.setModel(loginModel);
IHttpRequest<LoginModel, User> request = builder.buildHttpPost();
User user = request.execute(URL.BASE_LOCAL);
//redirects to login page
if (user == null)
{
error = 1;
return LOGIN;
}
else
{
return SUCCESS;
}
}
//Getters/Setters
If a invalid user trys to login it redirects to localhost:8080/app/login.action?error=1. I am trying to display a error message to user by access the error parameter by using the if tag but its not working the message is not displaying.
<s:if test="error == 1">
<center>
<h4 style="color:red">Username or Password is invalid!!</h4>
</center>
What am I doing wrong?
As far as I'm concerned what you're doing wrong is completely ignoring the framework.
Roughly, IMO this should look more like this:
public class LoginAction extends ActionSupport {
private String username;
private String password;
#Override
public String validate() {
if (isBlank(username) || isBlank(password)) {
addActionError("Username or Password is invalid");
}
User user = loginUser(username, password);
if (user == null) {
addActionError("Invalid login");
}
}
public User loginUser(String username, String password) {
LoginModel loginModel = new LoginModel(username, password);
HttpBuilder<LoginModel, User> builder = new HttpBuilder<LoginModel, User>(User.class);
builder.setPath("service/user/authenticate");
builder.setModel(loginModel);
IHttpRequest<LoginModel, User> request = builder.buildHttpPost();
return request.execute(URL.BASE_LOCAL);
}
}
You would have an "input" result containing the form, and display any action errors present using whatever style you wanted. If it's critical to change the styling based on which type of login error it is you'd have to play a few more games, but that seems excessive.
Unrelated, but I'd move that loginUser code completely out of the action and into a utility/service class, but at least with it wrapped up in a separate method you can mock it more easily. It certainly does not belong in the execute method.
You need to provide the getter and setter of field 'error' to access it from value stack.
public int getError()
{
return error;
}
public void setError(int error)
{
this.error = error;
}
And try to access it in OGNL:
<s:if test="%{#error==1}"></s:if>
Or using JSTL:
<c:if test="${error==1}"></c:if>

How to populate certain text field after selecting item from <h:selectOneMenu /> JSF 2.0

i want that, when user select item in a inputText field populates with data from database.
I have a select menu list:
<h:selectOneMenu id="blah" value="#{controller.selected.id}" title="#{bundle.CreateTitle_id}" >
<f:selectItems value="#{controller.listOfId()}" />
</h:selectOneMenu>
and let's say have input text like this:
<h:inputText value="In here we place value from backing bean"></h:inputText>
How can i make after selecting an item from a list(which holds the id) populate text field with other data from my backing bean(let's say a name).
Here is my backingBean:
#ManagedBean(name = "controller")
#SessionScoped
public class Bean implements Serializable {
private Catalog current;// here i'm holding int id, String name and other stuff...
private DataModel items = null;
#EJB
private probaSession.CatalogFacade ejbFacade;
private PaginationHelper pagination;
private int selectedItemIndex;
public KatalogController() {
}
public Katalog getSelected() {
if (current == null) {
current = new Catalog();
selectedItemIndex = -1;
}
return current;
}
private KatalogFacade getFacade() {
return ejbFacade;
}
public PaginationHelper getPagination() {
if (pagination == null) {
pagination = new PaginationHelper(10) {
#Override
public int getItemsCount() {
return getFacade().count();
}
#Override
public DataModel createPageDataModel() {
return new ListDataModel(getFacade().findRange(new int[]{getPageFirstItem(), getPageFirstItem() + getPageSize()}));
}
};
}
return pagination;
}
//......
public ArrayList<Catalog> listOfId() {
ArrayList<Catalog> list=new ArrayList<Catalog>();
try{
String upit="select id from Catalog";
Statement st=connection.createStatement();
ResultSet rs=st.executeQuery(upit);
while(rs.next()) {
Katalog k=new Katalog();
k.setId(rs.getInt(1));
k.setName(rs.getString(2));
list.add(k);
}
disconnect();
}
catch (Exception ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
}
return list;
}
and that's pretty much it.
I'm here if anything needs to explaining. It think it is easy(using ajax let's say) but i don't even know how to start doing it...
You must add an f:ajax (that is standard, many component library offer extended versions) to catch a change event in the inputText
<h:selectOneMenu id="blah" value="#{controller.selected.id}" title="#{bundle.CreateTitle_id}" >
<f:selectItems value="#{controller.listOfId()}" />
<f:ajax
event="change" <-- The event to capture. I believe that if not specified
there is a default event to capture from
each component (for inputText it would be "change")
render="myForm:foo" <-- Only repaint "blah"
listener="#{controller.myBlahListener}"
</h:selectOneMenu>
<h:inputText id="foo" value="#{controller.fooText}"/>
Your listener will read the new value in this.getSelected().getId(), and change the model so that controller.getFooText() returns the new value (the easiest way probably is this.setFooTest(this.getSelected().getId(), but that depends of your model.
