Sungard,

Sorry for the late reply. I have raised a PR with the dev team to investigate this issue. I shall get back to you on this.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

[Jim Jackson]

Any updates on this ?

Sorry for late response.

To create ICEfaces facelets project, you shouldn’t do step 5 “Add JSF Facelets Support”. Instead, you should add capabilities in following order:

JSF capability
ICEfaces Capability
ICEfaces facelets capability

Hope this help!

Liming from ICEsoft

Liming,

Thank you for the workaround. I have verified this works.

Best.
