I don't know how to continue, but I always get the "java.lang.RuntimeException: Cannot find FacesContext" for my new JSF 1.2 web application. I'm sure it's just some configuration I can't find.
The exception occurs with the first f: or h: tag. Already with the important <f:view> at the beginning.
My index.jsp
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html" prefix="h"%> <%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core" prefix="f"%> <%@page contentType="text/html" pageEncoding="UTF-8"%> <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"> <f:view> <html> <head> <title>MyWebsite</title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"> <meta http-equiv="pragma" content="no-cache"> <meta http-equiv="cache-control" content="no-cache"> <meta http-equiv="expires" content="0"> </head> <body> <div>MyContent</div> </body> </html> </f:view> My web.xml looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <web-app version="2.5" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd"> <servlet> <servlet-name>Faces Servlet</servlet-name> <servlet-class>javax.faces.webapp.FacesServlet</servlet-class> <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup> </servlet> <context-param> <param-name>javax.faces.DEFAULT_SUFFIX</param-name> <param-value>.jsp</param-value> </context-param> <servlet-mapping> <servlet-name>Faces Servlet</servlet-name> <url-pattern>*.jsf</url-pattern> </servlet-mapping> <session-config> <session-timeout>720</session-timeout> </session-config> <welcome-file-list> <welcome-file>index.jsp</welcome-file> </welcome-file-list> </web-app> And then I also have a faces-config.xml that should reference myBean I want to use afterward in the body of the page:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?> <faces-config version="1.2" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-facesconfig_1_2.xsd"> <application> <view-handler>com.sun.facelets.FaceletViewHandler</view-handler> </application> <managed-bean> <managed-bean-name>myClassName</managed-bean-name> <managed-bean-class> com.company.className </managed-bean-class> <managed-bean-scope>session</managed-bean-scope> </managed-bean> </faces-config> What am I missing here?
