Maven web project dependencies

[Marcos Vidolin]

Hi everybody,

I've just started a project (JSF2+Facelets+RichFaces4+Spring3+Tomcat6) with Maven, but when I run the project I have the error bellow.

GRAVE: Error loading WebappClassLoader
  context: /webteste
  delegate: false
  repositories:
    /WEB-INF/classes/
----------> Parent Classloader:
org.apache.catalina.loader.StandardClassLoader@c44b88
 javax.faces.webapp.FacesServlet
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: javax.faces.webapp.FacesServlet
	at org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoader.loadClass(WebappClassLoader.java:1645)
	at org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoader.loadClass(WebappClassLoader.java:1491)
	at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardWrapper.loadServlet(StandardWrapper.java:1095)
...

I include the dependencies, but JSF not working.

This is my pom.xml

Does anybody can help me, please?

I believe that your scope for JSF-api and JSF-impl should be "compile", not "runtime".

Also, you can save making people edit the POM by setting up Maven profiles for Tomcat and non-Tomcat targets and put the appropriate dependencies in each.
