Hi,
I am a beginner in JSF. I created some web applications with JSF using Oracle JDeveloper. Thse are correctly running on JDeveloper's in-built oc4j. I deployed those applications on Tomcat and Jboss. Those are not working on non of those. I dont know the corrct url to be called for the web application running on tomcat or jboss. I tried my best according to the url's I tested on Oc4j.
I dont know whether it's possible to attch the war file with this forum. I have the WAR file with me, and it's correctly extracted in the webapps folder of the Tomcat 5.5.20. But in the Internet Explorer, it gives the HTTP Status 404 error message.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Thanks a lot for your reply. I will list all the files in my web app here because it is a very simple web app with a single jsp page and only one jsf backing bean.
The war file's name is jsfbean2, so the extracted folder name is also the same.
http://127.0.0.1:8080/jsfbean2/faces/Register.jsp
http://127.0.0.1:8080/jsfbean2/Register.jsp
http://127.0.0.1:8080/jsfbean2/Register.jsf
http://127.0.0.1:8080/jsfbean2/Register.faces
http://127.0.0.1:8080/jsfbean2/faces/Register
All those gives HTTP Status 404 Error...
INSIDE WEB-INF

In classes/proj1 folder PersonInfo.class
it's source code:

System.out.println("saving..." + name + " " + mail);
}
public String commandButton_action() {
saveInfo (this.username, this.email);
return null;
}
}
Outside the WEB-INF folder, there is only one jsp file.

The war file's name is jsfbean2, so the extracted folder name is also the same.
The URL's I tried are,
http://127.0.0.1:8080/jsfbean2/faces/Register.jsp
http://127.0.0.1:8080/jsfbean2/Register.jsp
http://127.0.0.1:8080/jsfbean2/Register.jsf
http://127.0.0.1:8080/jsfbean2/Register.faces
http://127.0.0.1:8080/jsfbean2/faces/Register
All those gives HTTP Status 404 Error...

Put this in web.xml and check if it works
Now use http://localhost:8080/jsfbean2/Register.jsf to access the page

Dear Ali,
I put the code you have posted in web.xml, but still it's not working at all. Still I get the same HTTP Status 404 - /jsfbean2/Register.jsf Error.
I deleted all stuff in tomcat works directory and checked, whether it's cached and then I cleared browser cache also.. But still the output is same ...
Any Idea please...
Thanks and best regards,
