Description

After switching from MyFaces 1.1.4 to MyFaces 1.1.5, the following error appears when requesting a page:

The context parameter 'org.apache.myfaces.secret.CACHE' is not set to false, yet there is nothing stored in the application map w/ the following key 'org.apache.myfaces.secret.CACHE'. It was either not placed there by StartupServletContextListener or something has removed it.

The error goes away if the following configuration line is added to web.xml, or if you downgrade back to 1.1.4.

<context-param>
<param-name>org.apache.myfaces.secret.cache</param-name>
<param-value>false</param-value>
</context-param>

Other encryption parameter values are:

<!-- MyFaces Encryption -->
<context-param>
<param-name>org.apache.myfaces.secret</param-name>
<param-value>[censored]</param-value>
</context-param>
<context-param>
<param-name>org.apache.myfaces.algorithm</param-name>
<param-value>AES</param-value>
</context-param>
<context-param>
<param-name>org.apache.myfaces.algorithm.parameters</param-name>
<param-value>CBC/PKCS5Padding</param-value>
</context-param>
<context-param>
<param-name>org.apache.myfaces.algorithm.iv</param-name>
<param-value>[censored]</param-value>
</context-param>

java.lang.NullPointerException: The context parameter 'org.apache.myfaces.secret.CACHE' is not set to false, yet there is nothing stored in the application map w/ the following key 'org.apache.myfaces.secret.CACHE'. It was either not placed there by StartupServletContextListener or something has removed it.
