Hi all,

There seem to be quite some tutorials around to start with Seam and EJB3, with 
JSP and all that which is supposed to be not essential for using Seam. Much 
less info without those. No wonder I can't get a simple web application up and 
running to save my life...

I had an Eclipse 3.2.2 with a trivial web project: a backing session bean 
displaying text with a facelet. Running fine as such, no Seam yet.
Then I installed the Seam plugin 2.0.0.beta1 with the Eclipse Update (as you 
probably noticed Eclipse 3.3 cannot install the Seam plugins because of 
dependencies on 3.2.0), and I put annotations to my backing bean the way the 
IBM tutorial says (Seamless JSF series, see 
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/java/library/j-seam1/index.html). I also 
edited accordingly facelets-config.xml and web.xml, and aded seam.properties. I 
also added the seam jars in the lib.
Yay, now I cannot even start the application: some annotations are not found 
(java.lang.ArrayStoreException: 
sun.reflect.annotation.TypeNotPresentExceptionProxy, but it won't say which 
annotation is not found). Playing with the versions of the libraries (myfaces, 
jsf, whatnot) seems to influence the amount of errors, but I couldn't find a 
working combination of them.

Then I even downloaded the sample project from the site, which doesn't work 
either (NoClassDefFoundError without saying WHICH class, again). True, that one 
was based on Seam 1.1.6, but as it downloaded with Maven all its dependencies I 
was somehow expecting it to find its stuff around.

I know tutorials are not really your problem, however, can anybody suggest me a 
startup project, a tutorial, or whatever, which DOES work and doesn't require 
Application Servers???? I know I could have dumped here all the config files 
and libraries versions, but I thought I can sort it out by myself...

Many thanks in advance,
M
