I have developed a JSF 2.0 application and tested it on Apache Tomcat 6.0. The problem is that the official server can only have version 5.5 installed. So I tried to deploy it as it was but I kept getting the JasperException. I figured out that the problem probably lies with the standard.jar and jstl.jar. How can I deploy it then? How to downgrade the application?
Thanks for any help, links or tutorials.
Best Regards.
JSF2.0 requires Tomcat 6.0 or later.
If you use the JSF-RI 1.2, you can run JSF 1.2 with tomcat 5.5
EDITED:
I read that in version 5.5.20 it doesn't work properly. Tomcat 5.5.17 and Tomcat 5.0.28 are fine with JSF1.2
I have used Mojarra 2.0.3-b03 on Tomcat 5.5.28 and it works well so far. All basic facelet tags work fine so far (h:dataTable, f:ajax, etc.)
Currently trying to use RichFaces 4 (still under development though) but seems lot of components not ready yet.

I have a small Richfaces web application hosted on a JBoss EAP 6.4 server. I want to now run the app instead on a JBoss EAP 7.0 server, and modify the app to use Primefaces v6.1 instead of Richfaces.
Can anyone tell me (or make an educated guess) as to what may be some new security concerns or implications for doing so?
Thanks
I'm using OmniFaces 1.6 currently, with an application running JSF 2.2.6, Weld 1.1.9, on a Tomcat 7.
I've tried updating OmniFaces to 2.0, but when I do, I get this error message while launching the application (and the application doesn't start):
This OmniFace version requires CDI, but none was found on this environment. OmniFaces 2.x requires a minimum of JSF 2.2
It links to this page: http://omnifaces.org/cdi/
The problem is that, as I said, the application definitely uses JSF 2.2 and CDI.
Any ideas on what could be wrong?
I had same issue with you.
Please check this
http://omnifaces.org/cdi/
here are the additional instructions:
Install CDI 1.1+ in this environment.
For Tomcat users who don't have freedom in server choice, refer this
article: How to install CDI in Tomcat? When installing Weld, make
sure that you're using a minimum of version 2.2.0! Older versions have
initialization ordering bugs.
Switch to a CDI 1.1 capable environment.
For Tomcat users who have full freedom in server choice, just replace
Tomcat by TomEE, or perhaps even by WildFly.
I am trying to figure out which jar I need to download for tomcat 7. I am making a call and passing an argument to a method such "availableEmployees(DepartmentName)" in my faces web page. This does not work in tomcat 7 but works in glassfish 3.1. I have added the javax.faces.2.1.20.jar "Mojarra" to my web app for jsf dependency. I have also javax.servlet.jsp.jstl.1.2.1 in my tomcat library folder.
Did anyone run into such problem ? Do I need to add more than the above jars for jsf support ? Thanks. Not using maven since it is somebody else' project.
I am using netbeans and I linked to an eclipse project. I added my own primefaces library. When I looked at the build output from netbeans, I have noticed that there were two copies of primefaces library. One with 3.4.2 and another with 3.3.1.
Removed one of them and everything worked.
I am currently developing a J2EE project using Servlets 2.4 and JSF 1.2. If I deploy my app in WebSphere 6.1, the page renders properly. If I deploy it in Tomcat 6.0 that uses JDK 1.5, the page doesn't render properly and show something like below:
<h:outputText value="#{msg.my_value}" />
I am just curious to know what is the root cause that cause the problem and it's just so interesting that it works in WebSphere and doesn't work in Tomcat although both of them are using JDK 1.5.
WebSphere as being a concrete Java EE application server ships with bundled JSF libraries, but Tomcat as being a simple JSP/Servlet container does not ship with any bundled JSF libraries. If you have paid close attention to your Tomcat server logs, then you should have noticed that there's a ClassNotFoundException on the FacesServlet which should already be enough hint as to the root cause of this problem.
You need to supply your own JSF implementation for Tomcat. This can be done by manually downloading the JSF libraries and placing them in either the /WEB-INF/lib folder of your webapp, or the /lib folder of the Tomcat installation. The latter will apply on all of its deployed webapps, like as happens in WebSphere.
Can someone please help me out with the Oracle ADF faces application which I'm trying to deploy on Websphere 7.0? Do I need to apply any fixpacks on WAS? I'm trying to migrate this project from Websphere 6.1 to Websphere 7.0.
In Websphere 6.1, after removing jsf implementation jar files and providing them as part of WEB-INF\lib and changing the classloader to PARENT_LAST, the application was working fine.
For websphere 7.0, I can't seem to get the application working. It always picks up the Sun's JSF implementation. I've also tried the shared library concept but to no success.

The Oracle documentation lists a certification for WAS 7.0.0.13 ND. So you need FixPack 13 or later.
As the WebSphere Application Server 7 is a full blown JEE5 server it requires/has JSF 1.2 support. You can switch between the built in Sun and MyFaces implementation if required.
You should probably make sure that the ADF version you are using is certified for WAS 7. The ADF release notes tell that ADF supports JSF 2.0. The WAS 7 only comes with JSF 1.2. Exchanging the JSF version with placing the JSF 2 libs into WEB-INF/lib works well for our projects in conjunction with the 'PARENT_LAST' classloading policy. Make sure that you set the policy either for the whole application or for both the application and the web module.
ADF Faces is a Java based framework and it will run on WebSphere but, you have to add the required libraries first. The easiest way to prepare WebSphere to run ADF Faces application is through JDeveloper. Alternatively, you can google Oracle JRF (Java Runtime Framework) and install that on your WebSphere, before running the ADF Faces application.
