Howdy Ranchers,

I am trying to stay awake following the tutorial/documentation located here: https://javaee.github.io/tutorial/jsf-facelets005.html

I created the Web project for this in NetBeans IDE 8.2. My directory structure can be seen here: https://imgur.com/a/w42P6

The directory structure for the web application is as follows:

FaceletsCompositeExample
|
- Web Pages
- WEB-INF
- resources
. |
. - emcomp
. |- email.xhtml
. |- emuserpage.xhtml
.
. index.xhtml
- Source Packages
- Libraries
- Configuration Files

The source code for the email.xhtml file is as follows:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHMTL 1.0 Transitional//EN"
    "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
      xmlns:composite="http://xmlns.jcp.org/jsf/composite"
      xmlns:h="http://xmlns.jcp.org/jsf/html">
    
    <h:head>
        <title>This content will not be displayed</title>
        <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0"/>
    </h:head>
    <h:body>
        <composite:interface>
            <composite:attribute name="value" required="false"/>
        </composite:interface>
        
        <composite:implementation>
            <h:outputLabel value="Email id: "></h:outputLabel>
            <h:inputText value="#{cc.attrs.value}"></h:inputText>
        </composite:implementation>
    </h:body>
</html>

The source code for emuserpage.xhtml is as follows:

There is also a default index.xhtml page that NetBeans creates. The code for this is as follows:

The index.xhtml page is the only thing that shows when deploying this application to glassfish.

If I enter the URL suggested in the tutorial: http://localhost:8080/application-name/emuserpage.xhtml I receive a 404 error.
When I go to http://localhost:8080/FaceletsCompositeExample/ I see the index.xhtml page.

The web.xml, deployment descriptor, for this project is as follows:

Is there a problem with the <servlet-mapping> section of the deployment descriptor? From my understanding the current mapping says to display things that are in the "faces" directory or something. I am not sure how the index.xhtml file is in the "faces" directory because in the project structure this file is under "Web Pages". Maybe the <welcome-file>faces/index.html</welcome-file> creates some imaginary (looking for a better word) directory structure and this is why the index.xhtml page shows up?

Does anyone know where I went wrong with this example?

Thank-you for reading this.

Regards,

Kim Gordon
