Try doing message.setDetail(...) if you haven't tried that yet
What I have is the following:
<h:commandButton id="freesearchBtn"
value="#{common.labelBtnSearch}"
actionListener="#{tbrowser.doFreeFormSearch}"/>
Calling:
public void doFreeFormSearch(ActionEvent event) {
FacesContext facesContext = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
FacesMessage message = new FacesMessage();
...
try {
...
} catch (MyException e) {
message.setSeverity(FacesMessage.SEVERITY_ERROR);
message.setSummary("No results found.");
facesContext.addMessage(null, message);
facesContext.renderResponse();
logger.error("My Exception:", e);
I don't have an action on the h:commandButton.
I just don't understand that when I debug the backing bean, it steps
into the catch statement, nothing errors... no server.log messages or
anything.
But the <h:messages/> doesn't render.
Thanks,
--Todd

So by "redisplaying the page" you're saying you either don't have an
action attribute on your command component or the action you are
specifying is mapped to a navigation case without a <redirect/> tag on
it.
If you're not redirecting then I'm out of ideas. :) Perhaps you can
attach as simple .war that duplicates the problem?
