over the last four days deployment continues to fail of my simple war that I set up to get to familiar with jsf.
First I will stress that I am using windows 7 and the problem occurs withboth majorra and myFaces version 1.2 andboth tomcat 6.0.2 and 6.026 my war ir correctly laid out and contains the libs and classes in the WEB-INF folder. my web.xml is as follows: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <web-app xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee"; xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"; xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd"; version="2.5"> <servlet> <servlet-name>Faces Servlet</servlet-name> <servlet-class>javax.faces.webapp.FacesServlet</servlet-class> <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup> </servlet> <!-- Faces Servlet Mapping --> <servlet-mapping> <servlet-name>Faces Servlet</servlet-name> <url-pattern>/faces/*</url-pattern> </servlet-mapping> </web-app> as you can see, my facess servlet should be activated on any request to file located in my faces folder inside my web folder. index.jsp forwards a request to welcome.jsp and this is where deployment fails because the minute I remove the url pattern for /faces/* then deployment succeeds. Deployment fails with a 404 and no jsps or html are located in Web-INF meaning that all should be directly accesable. /It would be easy to assume that I am not packaging my war incorrectly, but when I use same packaging and other jars unrelated to jsf like jstl then app find these jars as needed. Perhaps I am using incorrect jsf jars. Could anyone mail me a copy of jsf lib that they are using and have found to work in above mentioned containers and possibly point out any obvious errors that I am making?
