Primefaces FileUploadEvent Listener Method does not work

Question

Now I am using Primefacs 3.3.1 and JSF 2.0 for my application. Now I am facing a problem that primefaces FileUploadEvent listener does not work even form submit. There is no erorr and exception in my log file. But, it does not work. What I am missing, lib or configuration? BTW, I use JBoss 7.1.1 application server.

Lib

primefaces-3.3.1.jar
commons-io-1.4.jar
commons-fileupload-1.2.1.jar
poi-3.7.jar

mypages.xhtml

<h:form enctype="multipart/form-data">            
    <p:fileUpload fileUploadListener="#{FileUploadController.handleFileUpload}"  
            mode="advanced"  
            update="messages"   
            multiple="true"  
            sizeLimit="100000"   
            allowTypes="/(\.|\/)(gif|jpe?g|png)$/"/>  
    <p:commandButton value="Submit" ajax="false" actionListener="#{FileUploadController.upload}"/>  
    <!-- or -->
    <p:commandButton value="Submit" ajax="false" action="#{FileUploadController.upload}"/>  
</h:form>

FileUploadController.java

@Scope(ScopeType.CONVERSATION)
@Name("FileUploadController")
public class FileUploadController {
    private List<UploadedFile> uploadedFileList = new ArrayList<UploadedFile>();

    public void handleFileUpload(FileUploadEvent event) {
        System.out.println("handleFileUpload()....");
        UploadedFile file = event.getFile();
        uploadedFileList.add(file);
        FacesMessage msg = new FacesMessage("Succesful", file.getFileName() + " is uploaded.");  
        FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().addMessage(null, msg);  
    }  

    public void upload() {
        System.out.println("Number of Uploaded Files : " + uploadedFileList.size());
    }
}

@BalusC, if I remove Seam, can I still use Seam in my application? — Zaw Than oo
Just to exclude one and other :) You've there a Seam multipart filter which suggests that it's also parsing the HTTP request as multipart/form-data. But a HTTP request can be parsed only once. — BalusC
@BalusC, even I remove Seam Multipart Filter, it does not invoke listener metod. BTW, What can I need to do for upload with ajax request? Could you provide whatever solution? Thanks for your time and providing. — Zaw Than oo
Well, start debugging the HTTP traffic and HTTP request body parsing. — BalusC

you should disable seam multipart filter. You should write

web:multipart-filter disabled="true"/> in components.xml . works fine for me.
