Myfaces 2.0.1 + RichFaces 3.3.3 + Tomcat 6 = blank page
dmd_anfini Sep 12, 2010 5:59 PMHi, I'm learning JSF 2.0 and decided to test a simple hello world like application using Myfaces 2.0.1 + RichFaces 3.3.3 + Tomcat 6.
All my pages are returned blank by the server. Need help on how make it work.
I have the following libs added to the webapp:
for Myfaces 2.0.1:
- commons-beanutils-1.7.0.jar
- commons-codec-1.3.jar
- commons-collections-3.2.jar
- commons-digester-1.8.jar
- commons-discovery-0.4.jar
- commons-logging-1.1.1.jar
- myfaces-api-2.0.1.jar
- myfaces-impl-2.0.1.jar
- jstl-api-1.2.jar
- jstl-impl-1.2.jar
for RichFaces 3.3.3:
- jhighlight-1.0.jar
- richfaces-api-3.3.3.Final.jar
- richfaces-impl-jsf2-3.3.3.Final.jar
- richfaces-ui-3.3.3.Final.jar
some of the needed libs for RichFaces 3.3.3 are already included in the libs for Myfaces 2.0.1
all these libs are under WEB-INF/lib
here is the web.xml

my app has no managed beans, in fact no java classes yet. It has only 3 documents:

The application starts without any errors, here is the console output in Eclipse
