Has anyone tried running JSF2 on
Tomcat 6? I tried to do this but running into EL compatibility issues. Tried various combinations but nothing worked. I did the setup and
test based on the following post.
http://weblogs.java.net/blog/cayhorstmann/archive/2009/12/29/jsf-20-and-tomcat
If anyone accomplished this, please post the following
1) list of libraries in tomcat lib
2) list of libraries in WEB-INF/lib
3) web.xml configuration
I have the following config and my sample page only displays plain HTML but not any
JSF text box fields.
I added the following to tomcat lib
el-api-2.2.jar
el-impl-2.2.jar
jstl-api-1.2.jar
jstl-impl-1.2.jar
I have the following in WEB-INF/lib
jsf-api.jar
jsf-impl.jar
jstl-api-1.2.jar
jstl-impl-1.2.jar
weld-servlet.jar
My web.xml is:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<web-app xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

I also have an empty beans.xml in my WEB-INF folder. This is required for Weld.
Anyone, plese help.
