How to implement JSF Facelets Tags

[mohammed moin]

Hello,

I am facing real difficulties in implementing JSF Facelets Tags on my Tomcat 6.0 server.

I have these jar files jsf-facelets.jar, el-api.jar, el-ri.jar in my WEB-INF/lib folder.

I have this web.xml file in my WEB-INF folder,

web.xml

<web-app>

<!-- Use Documents Saved as *.xhtml -->
<context-param>
<param-name>javax.faces.DEFAULT_SUFFIX</param-name>
<param-value>.xhtml</param-value>
</context-param>

<!-- Special Debug Output for Development -->
<context-param>
<param-name>facelets.DEVELOPMENT</param-name>
<param-value>true</param-value>
</context-param>

<!-- Optional JSF-RI Parameters to Help Debug -->
<context-param>
<param-name>com.sun.faces.validateXml</param-name>
<param-value>true</param-value>
</context-param>
<context-param>
<param-name>com.sun.faces.verifyObjects</param-name>
<param-value>true</param-value>
</context-param>

<!-- Faces Servlet -->
<servlet>
<servlet-name>Faces Servlet</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>javax.faces.webapp.FacesServlet</servlet-class>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>

<!-- Faces Servlet Mapping -->
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>Faces Servlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>*.faces</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

</web-app>

I have this faces-config.xml file in my WEB-INF folder,

<faces-config>

<!-- from project setup -->
<application>
<view-handler>
com.sun.facelets.FaceletViewHandler
</view-handler>
</application>

</faces-config>

Inspite of satisfying all the conditions, i am unable to implement JSF Facelets,

This is my log file,
