I am a newbie and need a little help. I am trying to do a simple <jsp:forward…> and I keep getting a 404 resource not found. I have added the jsf-facelts.jar file to the lib directory. The project is using Eclipse with My Eclipse Version: 3.4.1
Build id: M20080911-1700 with MyEclipse 2.0.1 running on Tomcat 6.0.18.My web.xml is:
<?xml version=”1.0″ encoding=”UTF-8″?>
<web-app xmlns=”http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee” xmlns:xsi=”http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance” version=”2.5″ xsi:schemaLocation=”http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd”>
<context-param>
<param-name>javax.faces.DEFAULT_SUFFIX</param-name>
<param-value>.xhtml</param-value>

<welcome-file>index.jsp</welcome-file>

My index.jsp is:
<%@ page language=”java” import=”java.util.*” pageEncoding=”ISO-8859-1″%>
<%
String path = request.getContextPath();
String basePath = request.getScheme()+”://”+request.getServerName()+”:”+request.getServerPort()+path+”/”;
%><!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC “-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN”>
<html>
<body>
<jsp:forward page=”/index.faces”></jsp:forward></body>
</html>The index.xhtml is in the same subdirectory as the index.jsp
Do you have a simple sample app that does the “forward” to an xhtml file correctly. I downloaded a sample called MyBlog and it when the “.faces” call is made it fails with the same 404 error.
I want to apologize for taking your time earlier. It seems I had a bit of a brain malfunction….
The problem I discovered was related to Tomcat, specificlly that I had installed tomcat 5.5 and set the Catalina_Home environmental variable for that version. I subsequently loaded Tomcat 6 but did not update the environmental variable. So I found myself in a situation where Tomcat was not operating as expected. When I adjusted the environmental variable the problem ceased to exist.
