We should take this off-line if you're just asking me, however, this is
a good question for everyone.
First, the error you show is a problem, perhaps with how Eclipse deploys
to Tomcat, I don't know. I fought it for weeks without success. The only
solution I know of is:
http://www.javahotchocolate.com/tutorials/jsf-notes.html#mis sing-listener
....and it works every time.
Second, don't put too much stock in Eclipse's JSP validation. I often
see errors and warnings where there are none. Often the tagging will no
longer be there after closing and opening and/or, especially, after
bouncing Eclipse.
Hope this helps,
Russ

Russ,
Are you using the User Library approach to adding the JSF and JSTL jars.
If so, the mysterious "missing listener" could be a new form of Bug
270287[1] where the "contents" of the User Library somehow get cached in
a bad state. I saw this once with Eclipse 3.5.2/WTP 3.1.2 while working
through the tutorial where the jars all went missing from the first
example in the tutorial when I tried to run the second example. I
couldn't make it happen again though. You could try copying the jars to
WEB-INF/lib or referencing the jars directly rather than through a User
Library and see if you still occasionally get the "missing listener"
behavior.
Cheers,
Larry
P.S. For those that try working though the tutorial, I highly recommend
when adding example projects to a Tomcat server that you first stop the
server, add or remove projects as desired, then start the server back
up. It is not unusual to have issues when trying add or remove a
project from the server while it remains running.

Yes, Larry, this is exactly what's happening and what I'm doing. I did
try to add the libraries instead under WEB-INF/lib early on and, as I
recall, this did not fix the problem (but there may have been so many
other problems back then). I should now experiment with this solution.
I also find that it's not a bad idea to close projects in the workspace
one is not actively working on if one has many, unrelated ones.
I also do a lot of pre-emptive stopping and cleaning of the server.
I find also that whenever I exit Eclipse or change workspaces, I'm in
for removing, then re-creating the server from scratch before it will
work (both from the Servers view and from the Project Explorer view).
This is annoying, but after weeks of fighting it, just being able to
create and use a Tomcat reliably has been bliss. Two years ago, I gave
up trying to learn JSF for this reason (you answered a number of my
questions back then, but I never reached the point at which I got
anything to work). I was still pretty new at Eclipse and totally new at
WTP. Today, I merrily add pages, debug and run them. JSF life is sweet.
Best,
Russ

I tried this and it didn't work. I was missing all sorts of symbols out
of Java files and JSPs. And, assuming stopping, cleaning and starting
the server doesn't care about red source file decoration, the missing
listener problem was still there. I also tried it with JSF and JSTL JARs
both in Build Path and on the path WEB-INF/lib.

Only one project in my workspace; only one project known to the server.
I'm not certain why this is only a bug for me when a) clearly, the JAR
and listener inside are NOT missing, and b) it doesn't happen when I
wipe all traces of a server, then create one from scratch which will
work perfectly until the next time I leave the workspace.

Ah! You know about the gremlins in my office! I was trying to keep them
a secret!

You're having trouble with Lars' tutorial. This has nothing to do with
Eclipse or webtools.
I have done this tutorial myself and carefully reviewed it. You might
benefit from walking through it again, perhaps also referring to my
article at http://www.javahotchocolate.com/tutorials/wtp-jsf.html
Unless something has changed since I did this, the tutorial should still
work and, if there's anything the slightest bit unclear, it will be
covered in my article (unless I did find it unclear).

I glanced at my review and found two notes on this exact problem. Search
the URL I gave you looking for "5.6. Resource Bundle for Messages".
There is another instance of this too at "6.5. Resource Bundle for
Messages".
The problem is getting messages.properties created in the correct
place--directly under the package de.vogella.jsf.starter. If, when you
created them, they somehow didn't fall there, then you'll get the error
you quote.
Best of luck,
Russ Bateman
