JSF with Tomcat

[Leander]

Hi,

I'm developing a JSF webapp - now I exported it as App.war and copied it under /usr/local/apache-tomcat-8.0/webapps/App.war. After a service tomcat8 restart the app was available under 127.0.0.1:8080/App/index.xhtml. Unfortunatley it only showed the regular HTML declarations - but not the JSF (<h:*>) tags. What's wrong here? I can't figure out what I am missing here.

Thanks
Best Regards

Solution:

It was required to tune web.xml config. Following code was missed:

 <servlet-mapping>
  <servlet-name>Faces Servlet</servlet-name>
  <url-pattern>*.xhtml</url-pattern>
 </servlet-mapping>
 <servlet-mapping>
  <servlet-name>Faces Servlet</servlet-name>
  <url-pattern>/faces/*</url-pattern>
 </servlet-mapping>
 <servlet-mapping>
  <servlet-name>Faces Servlet</servlet-name>
  <url-pattern>*.jsf</url-pattern>
 </servlet-mapping>
 <servlet-mapping>
  <servlet-name>Faces Servlet</servlet-name>
  <url-pattern>*.faces</url-pattern>
 </servlet-mapping>
