It is absolutely getting that reference to the
struts.tiles.DefinitionsFactory from something in your app which is
from Struts. Originally I used that class with Struts-Tiles plugin,
but when I went to standalone Tiles, we modified the listener
declaration to use the Tiles standalone DefinitionFactory. I use this
in web.xml. Maybe you're doing some of the new features Tiles has now
(which I'm not using), but this works great for us. I know that there
are various ways of loading Tiles, eg using a startup servlet instead
of the listener I'm specifying below.
<!-- Define Tiles config files -->
<context-param>
<param-name>
org.apache.tiles.impl.BasicTilesContainer.DEFINITIONS_CONFIG
</param-name>
<param-value>
/WEB-INF/config/tiles_rp.xml, /WEB-INF/config/tiles_dm.xml,
/WEB-INF/config/tiles_pm.xml, /WEB-INF/config/tiles_as.xml
</param-value>
</context-param>
...
<listener>
<listener-class>
org.apache.tiles.web.startup.TilesListener
</listener-class>
</listener>
...
<!-- Tiles-2 Dispatch Servlet -->

No there's nothing referencing struts in the web.xml and I'm not using
anything struts oriented, just myfaces

Is your web.xml file referring to some struts artifact or Struts-Tiles
plugin? I use standalone Tiles and MyFaces without problems (app also
uses Struts, Tomahawk, Trinidad). Does your app otherwise use Struts,
and if so which version? If you use struts, but not the Struts2-Tiles
plugin, you can should the plugin jar.

Hi, I'm trying to use myFaces and Standalone Tiles together using maven2.
However, when I try to deploy the war file to Tomcat, I get a
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError:
org.apache.struts.tiles.DefinitionsFactoryException (which surprises me
as
I'm using the jars for the standalone version of tiles). Do any of you
know
why it's looking for org.apache.struts.tiles.DefinitionsFactoryException
instead of org.apache.tiles.DefinitionsFactoryException?
