Hi I have 2 webb-apps. Both of them have identical setups (except for some navigation and content differences). One works fine but the other fails to start correctly.
The conflict seems to come from MyFaces.

Both are using:


ajax4jsf-1.1.1
richfaces-3.0.1
myfaces-api-1.1.4
tomahawk-1.1.5



The app that works correctly loads the following. Taken from the tomcat logs.

May 22, 2007 5:43:59 PM com.sun.faces.config.rules.ComponentRule end

The other seems to load MyFaces configurator.

May 22, 2007 5:36:25 PM org.apache.myfaces.config.FacesConfigurator feedClassloaderConfigurations

The lib directories are identical. can anyone tell me why MyFaces is getting picked up?
