Problems with JSF-Extension

Hi,

I'm trying to use an OpenSource- JSF-Extension (Rialto: http://rialto.application-servers.com/wiki/jsf). It is known to work perfectly with TomCat, but it does not seem to work with Glassfish.
The other thing is, that the developers of Rialto recommend to use the JSF Implementation version 1.1 while Glassfish uses 1.2.

The error-message I get is

ApplicationDispatcher[/RialtoPlayground] PWC1231: Servlet.service() for servlet jsp threw exception

By the way: I'm using Glassfish v2 b58g.

So, my Questions are:
- Is this (or a similar) problem a "known" problem?
- If so, is it rather a Glassfish vs. Tomcat Problem or a version 1.1 vs. version 1.2
  problem?

Please find attached my Netbeans (6.0 Beta1) project.

I hope, that someone can help me...

Just let me know, If any additional information is needed.

Bye,

Bjoern.
