Using Tomcat 5.0
Eclipse 3.0

I have created a very simple example application (2 files in web root)
one [filename].faces and one [anotherfilename].jsp. When I point my
browser at [filename].faces file, it takes a while and then
I get an 404 error about not being
able to access [filename].jsp If I try a [anotherfilename].jsp it works
fine. The weird thing is it seems to work fine if I configure web.xml
to look for /faces/* instead of either *.jsf or *.faces

Here is my web.xml file
—
<?xml version=”1.0″ encoding=”UTF-8″?>
<web-app xmlns=”http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee&#8221; xmlns:xsi=”http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance&#8221; version=”2.4″ xsi:schemaLocation=”http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/web-app_2_4.xsd”&gt;

</servlet-mapping>
</web-app>

another piece of information making me think it might be in the configuration of tomcat.

I can interject errors into the *.faces, *.jsp files (both jsp and jsf errors) and I still only
get the 404 error. Making me thing that the servlets for jsp and jsf aren’t even getting
called prior to tomcat issuing the 404 error . . .

Never mind, figure it out, nothing here but 😳
