Hi Leonid,
Thanks for the feedback! The changes in the build.properties are what
I'd expect... I'm glad you got that figured out.
I decided to try to download Tomcat 5.5 and try this out as well to see
if I could see what you're seeing. I did get an error (although it was a
different exception -- but I suspect different version of tomcat or
other factors contributed to that). I was able to get around this error
by including the el-api.jar and el-impl.jar files in the web app. I got
these jar files from:
https://maven-repository.dev.java.net/nonav/repository/el-impl/jars/
https://maven-repository.dev.java.net/nonav/repository/javax.el/jars/
So to summarize, for Tomcat 5.5, I needed these extra jar files (vs.
GlassFish or other Java EE 5 containers):
jsf-api.jar
jsf-impl.jar
el-api-1.0.jar
el-impl-1.0.jar
I think that's it. Let me know if you've got it working.
Thanks!
Ken
