I am pleased to announce that the WildFly 40.0.0.Beta1 release is now available for download from our downloads page.

As I describe in the release announcement this release took us a little longer than planned but we hope it is worth it as not the default WildFly distribution uses EE11 whilst we have also added an EE10 distribution enabling our users to chose what meets their needs.

Please try out the release and let us know if you run into any issues whilst we continue to work on the Final release.

WildFly 40.0.0.Beta1 on OminFaces (https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/org/omnifaces/omnifaces/5.3.3/) causes error with:

I required: jakarta.faces-4.1.8.jar

on:

modules/system/layers/base/jakarta/faces/impl/main/jakarta.faces-4.1.8.jar

I used OminFaces for a 'converter'.

Hi,

Are you saying that changing modules/system/layers/base/jakarta/faces/impl/main/ to use the 4.1.8 API jar fixed your problem?

If so, WildFly main updated to 4.1.9 yesterday. :) https://github.com/wildfly/wildfly/pull/19946

Best regards,
Brian
