JSF tag is not working on *.xhtml but working *.jsp file
I am trying to run simple application using JSF 2.2, Netbeans 7.3 and GlassFish v2.
index.xhtml:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' ?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
xmlns:h="http://xmlns.jcp.org/jsf/html">
<h:head>
<title>Facelet Title</title>
</h:head>
<h:body>
<b>Hello from Facelets</b>
<h:form id="this">
<h:outputText value="This is"/>
</h:form>
</h:body>
</html>
web.xml:
<web-app version="2.5" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" 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.PROJECT_STAGE</param-name>
<param-value>Development</param-value>
</context-param>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>Faces Servlet</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>javax.faces.webapp.FacesServlet</servlet-class>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>Faces Servlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/faces/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
<session-config>
<session-timeout>
30
</session-timeout>
</session-config>
<welcome-file-list>
<welcome-file>faces/index.xhtml</welcome-file>
</welcome-file-list>
</web-app>
Output:
The <b>Hello from Facelets</b> is working but <h:outputText value="this is "/> is not working. How is this caused and how can I solve it?
I searched here and found the following questions:
However, the answers did not solve myproblem.
Update: @Xtreme Biker, when I changed like you said I got following exception:
Note: If I used *.jsp instead of *.xhtml it works. But when I make my index file extension xhtml it is not working.
Answer
Change your servlet mapping in order to work with .xhtml files. It seems not to be yet converting the tags.
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>Faces Servlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>*.xhtml</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
