Primfaces 3.0 file upload does not call fileUploadListner

I am trying to connect a Primefaces 3.0 component based on the example provided in the demo. I also added Commons-fileupload-1.2.2.jar and commons-io-2.0.1.jar along with the primefaces-3.1.jar file in my application which is deploying to JBoss 6.1.

The problem is that handleFileUpload () is not getting called.
