Cannot find FacesContext and showing the html code in the jsp

[Kaushik Baral]

hi,
i was trying some jsf examples and i am getting this error "Cannot find FacesContext" and when im mapping my "faces-config.xml" and "web.xml" like this i can see the html and other code on the jsp page. web.xml and faces-config.xml is given below

web.xml

<context-param>
<param-name>javax.faces.CONFIG_FILES</param-name>
<param-value>/WEB-INF/faces-config.xml</param-value>
</context-param>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>Faces Servlet</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>javax.faces.webapp.FacesServlet</servlet-class>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>Faces Servlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/faces/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
</web-app>

faces-config.xml

<faces-config>
<navigation-rule>
<from-view-id> /login.jsf</from-view-id>

<navigation-case>
<from-outcome>success</from-outcome>
<to-view-id>/home.jsf</to-view-id>
</navigation-case>

<navigation-case>
<from-outcome>failure</from-outcome>
<to-view-id>/login.jsf</to-view-id>
</navigation-case>
</navigation-rule>

<managed-bean>
<managed-bean-name>UserBean</managed-bean-name>
<managed-bean-class>com.tm.UserBean</managed-bean-class>
<managed-bean-scope>session</managed-bean-scope>
</managed-bean>

</faces-config>

i have changed my jsp files extension to jsf (home.jsf and login.jsf). is this required or extension home.jsp is fine?
