Deprecated exceptions are no longer caught by RegistrantBackingBean.java with Liferay Portal 7.0

• Type: Bug
• Status: Closed
• Priority: Minor
• Resolution: Fixed
• Affects Version/s: portal-3.0.0
• Fix Version/s: portal-3.0.0
• Component/s: Liferay Faces Portal / Demos / Tests
• Labels: None

There are several usages of deprecated exceptions in the jsf-registrant-portlet RegistrantBackingBean.java class such as com.liferay.portal.kernel.exception.DuplicateUserEmailAddressException. The code needs to be refactored to use the new exception handling provided by Liferay Portal 7.0. An example error is found below.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Deploy the jsf-registration-portlet to Liferay Portal 7.0

2. Click on the "Sign In" link

3. Click on the "Create Account" link

4. Complete the form presented by the jsf-registration-portlet using an existing email address

Expected Results:

RegistrantBackingBean catches com.liferay.portal.kernel.exception.UserScreenNameException$MustNotBeDuplicate and reports a FacesMessage in the portlet's markup that says "The email address you requested is already taken"

Actual Results:

The following error appears in the server log:

com.liferay.portal.kernel.exception.UserScreenNameException$MustNotBeDuplicate: Screen name ngriffin must not be duplicate but is already used by user 48570
