Having trouble with RichFaces and OC4J 10.1.3.1

[bigboy1122]

I have been trying to get RichFaces to work and keep getting different errors within Eclipse.

Here is what I have done so far. In my Ear Project, I have the orion-application.xml with the following

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<orion-application xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="http://xmlns.oracle.com/oracleas/schema/orion-application-10_0.xsd" >
 <imported-shared-libraries>
 <remove-inherited name="oracle.xml" />
 <import-shared-library name="xerces.xml" max-version="2.9.1"/>
<!--
 <remove-inherited name="oracle.toplink" />
 <remove-inherited name="oracle.persistence" />
 <import-shared-library name="jaxp-jwsdp" max-version="1.5"/>
-->
 </imported-shared-libraries>
</orion-application>

I have the following library's in my /WEBINF/lib
commons-beanutils.jar
commons-codec-1.3.jar
commons-collections.jar
commons-digester.jar
el-api.jar
el-ri.jar
jsf-api.jar
jsf-facelets.jar
jsf-impl.jar
jstl.jar
richfaces-api-3.1.3.GA.jar
richfaces-impl-3.1.3.GA.jar
richfaces-ui-3.1.3.GA.jar

I am getting the following error publishing through eclipse to OC4J 10.1.3.1

I have the richfaces*.jars referenced in the OC4J instance's class path, because if I don't then I get an error saying it couldn't find the tld lib. I can recreate if it is needed. But that is all I have in the class path of the OC4J instance.

Any ideas

I have the .jar files located in my WEBINF/lib directory. Whenever I deploy this, it doesn't work and I get the above text.

I finally think I have figured it out.

I was writing my pages in .jsp instead of .xhtml.

Even though I could get them to work inside of Tomcat 6.0 I couldn't inside of OC4J 10.1.3.1

What I think is that OC4J 10.1.3.1 doesn't support the newest version of JSP so it would have a problem compiling it.

Once I switched the page to .xhtml and changed my web.xml. Everything worked correctly.
