I am trying to set a variable with viewparam but I can't seem to get the code to compile in eclipse. It seems like it's not finding the tags.
I have the mojarra 2.2 used and I am inlcuding jsf-api-2.2.4 and impl also.

Your major mistake is that JSP is a deprecated view technology and is clearly a wrong tool for new projects. It has been succeeded by facelets, which is the default view technology for JSF 2.0+ projects.
Some tags, namely the ones used by you like <f:metadata> and <f:viewParam> are not available in JSPs (see sections 10.4.1.3 and 2.5.5 of JSF 2.2 specification (JSR-344) respectively).
The solution is straightforward: switch to facelets as the view technology.
It is also requested to switch to using the new namespaces that have been proposed since JSF 2.2, namely http://java.sun.com should now become http://xmlns.jcp.org (see Preface, page 8 of JSF 2.2 specification (JSR-344)), though both namespaces will work. Also see BalusC's comment to this answer and BalusC's answer to a similar question.

I am trying to integrate the ICEFaces ACE component library in my project. I've the following view:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets"
xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"
xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core">
<head>
<h:outputStylesheet library="org.icefaces.component.skins"
name="rime.css" />
<f:loadBundle basename="resources.application" var="msg" />
<title>
<h:outputText value="#{msg.templateTitle}" />
</title>
</head>
<body>
<div id="content">
<h:form>
<ace:dataTable var="user" value="#{userBean.users}"
paginator="true" rows="50" selectionMode="multiple">
<ace:column headerText="users">
<ace:row>#{user}</ace:row>
</ace:column>
</ace:dataTable>
</h:form>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Unfortunately apparently there is no JavaScript / CSS loaded, so the components are not displayed properly. Moreover, the server logs this:
ICEfaces configured for view /index.xhtml but h:head and h:body components are required
Is this related?
You need to use JSF <h:head> and <h:body> components instead of plain HTML <head> and <body>. This way JSF and any JSF component library will be able to programmatically auto-include CSS/JS resources in there.
E.g.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en"
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core">
xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"
xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets"
>
<f:loadBundle basename="resources.application" var="msg" />
<h:head>
<title>#{msg.templateTitle}</title>
</h:head>
<h:body>
...
</h:body>
</html>
Note that this way you also don't need that <h:outputStylesheet> anymore.
See also:
One or more resources has the target of 'head' but not 'head' component has been defined within the view
Unrelated to the concrete problem, you'd better declare resources.application as <resource-bundle> in faces-config.xml, so that you don't need to repeat it over all views. Also note that you don't necessarily need <h:outputText> over all place. The <head> and all of above also indicates that you're learning JSF based on a JSF 1.x targeted tutorial instead of a 2.x targeted one. Make sure that you're using the right resources to learn.
I read somewhere that the Facelet Tag Libraries URI's changed from http://java.sun.com/jsf/* to http://xmlns.jcp.org/jsf/*, so that means the new namespaces applies only for the new specification(JSF 2.2) or they can or should be used in older versions like 2.0, 2.1 or 1.x?
for example:
Library Old URI New URI
Composite Components http://java.sun.com/jsf/composite http://xmlns.jcp.org/jsf/composite
Faces Core http://java.sun.com/jsf/core http://xmlns.jcp.org/jsf/core
HTML_BASIC http://java.sun.com/jsf/html http://xmlns.jcp.org/jsf/html
JSTL Core http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core http://xmlns.jcp.org/jsp/jstl/core
Facelets Templating http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets http://xmlns.jcp.org/jsf/facelets
EDIT
To make the question more understandable nothing like a snippet of code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
xmlns:ui="http://xmlns.jcp.org/jsf/facelets"
xmlns:f="http://xmlns.jcp.org/jsf/core"
xmlns:h="http://xmlns.jcp.org/jsf/html">
<h:head>
<title>test</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="application/xhtml+xml; charset=UTF-8" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" title="Style" href="theme/stylesheet.css" />
</h:head>
<h:body>
<h:form id="form1" styleClass="form">
<h:inputText id="text1" styleClass="inputText"></h:inputText>
</h:form>
</h:body>
</html>
The previous code would be valid for JSF 2.0? notice the taglibs:
xmlns:ui="http://xmlns.jcp.org/jsf/facelets"
xmlns:f="http://xmlns.jcp.org/jsf/core"
xmlns:h="http://xmlns.jcp.org/jsf/html"
Thanks.
From what I've seen here : http://www.oracle.com/webfolder/technetwork/jsc/xml/ns/index.html, the canonical names for the large majority of taglibs stays http://java.sun.com/
However, as stated, you can use the new URIs since they created an alias.
I have a little problem with JSF,
I've made simple JSF page to learn:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets" xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core" xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html">
<h:head>
<title>register</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type"
content="application/xhtml+xml; charset=UTF-8" />
</h:head>
<h:body>
<h:form>
<h:outputText value="Hello."/>
<h:inputText value="#{login.name}"/>
<h:outputText value="Password"/>
<h:inputText value="#{login.password}"/>
<h:button value="Getgreeeting" outcome="welcome"/>
</h:form>
</h:body>
</html>
And another page to show the values inserted to bean:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets" xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core" xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html">
<h:head>
<title>welcome</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type"
content="application/xhtml+xml; charset=UTF-8" />
</h:head>
<h:body>
<h:outputText value="#{login.name}"></h:outputText>
<h:outputText value="Yours password #{login.password}"></h:outputText>
</h:body>
</html>
I've made some System.out.println() methods and they present that only getters in my beans works. Can somebody explain me why? What is solutionof my problem?
The <h:button> is not a submit button. It's a navigation button. Look closer at the Hello World example in your book/tutorial/resource (if you have any ..). You need a <h:commandButton> instead.

I'm working on a web solution using myfaces and primefaces. We have several pages in our solution, and some of the get this mystical error myfaces not defined because there is a javascript file that is not included on the page, namely the jsf.js file:
<script type="text/javascript" src="/driwkraft-hig/javax.faces.resource/jsf.js.xhtml?ln=javax.faces&stage=Development">
The error occurs when clicking on certain commandlinks on the page, where the generated javascript has been set to onClick="myfaces.oam.submitForm...
Now, I understand that this is something that the JSF framework adds to the page based on some mystical criteria which I fail to understand. There are pages that appear to be equal with regards to what elements are used, and it succeeds on one and fails on the other.
I have tried to create a test-file where I copied content of one of the failing pages and then removed parts until it would work to figure out what was the source of the problem, but this did not give me anything. My next hunch is that it might be some configuration-error somewhere. But I am completely and utterly blank as to where to start.
I understand I should probable add some code or xml in to this question, but I cannot post the entire solution so I think it is best to do so upon request. Would the web.xml be useful? How about the faces-config.xml?
Any guidance and thoughts are much appreciated!
Edit - adding template

It's auto-included if there's a <h:head> in the template which automatically renders CSS/JS dependencies from UIViewRoot#getComponentResources() which are added via #ResourceDependency annotation on the JSF component.
Those problem symptoms suggests that there's no <h:head> in the template, but a plain <head>. Therefore JSF is unable to auto-include CSS/JS resource dependencies which in turn causes this JS error.
To fix this problem, just make sure that there's a <h:head> instead of <head> in the template.

I am trying richface 4. It seems tags class are not setting on JAVA build path. I am getting this error for all rich component: "ERROR: tag handler class for * (org.richfaces.taglib.*) was not found on the Java Build Path"
For a4j component also, for all component i am getting same error "The tag handler class for "a4j:" (org.ajax4jsf.taglib.html.jsp.) was not found on the Java Build Path"
For richface4, i performed following actoin:
1) Added following jars:
annotations-4.0.0.Final.jar
cssparser-0.9.5.jar
guava-r08-gwt.jar
guava-r08.jar

web.xml is default generated and NO new element is added. As it is not required to change in RF4 (which is required in RF3.3).
JSP file is

<f:facet name="header">
<h:outputText value="Reset Password"/>
</f:facet>
</rich:modalPanel>
</f:view>
</body>
</html>
</jsp:root>
i further investigated this issue and found that taglib(tld file) doesn't contain tag-class for many rich and a4j component and richFace4.1 jar does not have corrosponding java class for them (which is in richFaces 3.3 jars).
Am i missing some jars ? What else should i do to work with richface4 ?
You seem to be trying to upgrade a RichFaces 3.3 web application to RichFaces 4.1. You need to do many more changes than only replacing the JAR files. You can find the exact migration steps in their own documentation: RichFaces 3.3.x to 4.x migration guide.
For example, JSP is been deprecated and replaced by Facelets, you'd need to rewrite your JSPs to be XHTMLs. The <rich:modalPanel> is been replaced by <rich:popupPanel>, you need to find and replace all those tags accordingly. The reRender attribute is been replaced by update attribute. Etcetera. Also that jsf-facelets-1.1.14.jar which is of Facelets 1.x should be removed from the /WEB-INF/lib. JSF 2.x libraries already ships with the right Facelets 2.x implementation bundled.
