3.1.3 doesn't work w/ JSF RI 1.2_07-b03

[dxxvi]

I replaced the jsf-facelets-1.1.12 with jsf-facelets-1.1.3 and everything was fine. Then I kept the jsf-facelets-1.1.13 and replaced the jsf-api, jsf-impl 1.2_04-p02 with the 1.2_07-b03. A series of exceptions were thrown (more than 1300 lines). Then I changed

<context-param>
 <param-name>com.sun.faces.verifyObjects</param-name>
 <param-value>true</param-value>
 </context-param>

to

<context-param>
 <param-name>com.sun.faces.verifyObjects</param-name>
 <param-value>false</param-value>
 </context-param>

and this is what I saw

INFO: Initializing Sun's JavaServer Faces implementation (1.2_07-b03-FCS) for co

Any workaround?

My environment: XP SP2, JDK 1.6.0_10-ea-b08, tomcat 6.0.14.

Have a look at these issues and you'll find the workaround for JSF RI 1.2_07:

http://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBAS-5063
https://javaserverfaces.dev.java.net/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=670

Not sure if I understand the workaround correctly. I added

<context-param>
 <param-name>com.sun.faces.forceLoadConfiguration</param-name>
 <param-value>true</param-value>
 </context-param>

and there's this error

I made it work by replacing xerces 2.4.0 with xerces 2.9.1. No need to add the param com.sun.faces.forceLoadConfiguration in the web.xml.
