Hello Tim,
OK, but if the JSF jar files are *only* in TOMCAT/common/lib/ directory
and *never*
in the WEBAPP/WEB-INF/lib/ directory?
Thanks,
Bryan
This is almost certainly caused by the involvement of two different
classloaders. For example, if you place a driver jar such as Oracle's
classes12.jar in both places, then you'll find you cannot cast from a
com.oracle...BlobXXX to a com.oracle...BlobXXX, as the class you can see
comes from the web-app class loader, but the blob you have came from
Tomcat's common class loader, from whence the connection came. The class
names are the same, and it can be quite confusing trying to figure it out,
as the CastClassException doesn't indicate the loader, only the class name.

Subject: Configuring JSF in the TOMCAT/conf/web.xml for all webapps
Hello,
I am developing a system in which every webapp deployed to Tomcat uses
JSF.
So, I decided to move the common JSF configuration from each
webapp/WEB-INF/web.xml
into the TOMCAT/conf/web.xml file.
At startup time everything looks fine. Here's an example of the output
I see for each webapp:
-------------------------

-------------------------
If I move the JSF configuration back into each webapp-specific web.xml,
then it works fine. Any ideas why this would happen?
Thanks,
Bryan
