I had try to do the demo (and modify it a bit) but I am getting a problem when I launch the application server. I am using tomcat 4.1 and it would launch fine until I tried to configure it with MyEclipse. Here is the start of the error that is being thrown by Tomcat, my web.xml file and my faces config. I’m not sure if the last 2 or needed.

Can someone get me started on what is causing the problem and how I correct?

Thanks

You cannot run a JSF application under Tomcat 4, you need to use Tomcat 5 or later.
