Why is index.faces requested? [message #473984]

Originally posted by: magnus.nospam.com

Hi,

I'm trying to create a JSF application and I've added an index.jsp file to
the WebContent directory containing one row:
<jsp:forward page="/login.faces" />

To start the web app in Eclipse using Apache Tomcat/5.5.23 I right click the
index.jsp file and select Run As->Run on Server. Then I get an error page
(HTTP Status 404) saying:
"The requested resource (/MyWebApp/index.faces) is not available."

Why is the non-existing page "index.faces" requested instead of
"login.faces"?

Thanks,
Magnus

What does your web.xml file look like?

when you choose run on the server.
the wtp think the file that you select is a jsf file. so it search the
suffix difined in your web.xml. but in your condition, it is just a
normal jsp file.
When the server is running,you can just type the normal url
just like the /index.jsp it will work good.

for exampe,
you must select the index.jsp file in your project,then choose run on
the server.
the wtp think the index.jsp is a jsf file, so depend on your web.xml
it use the index.faces to talk the servlet to visit the index.jsp file
on the server.
if you hope run the login.jsp file .you should select the login.jsp .

The JSF servlet is handling your request and it doesn't always do a URL
redirect. I am able to get this case working though... My guess would be
that there's something in your login.jsp that it's not happy about.
What's your login.jsp look like?
