Description

MyFaces is incompatible with struts-faces. There are several threads about this issue:

• http://www.mail-archive.com/[e-mail]/msg01610.html
• http://www.mail-archive.com/[e-mail]/msg00265.html

The crux of the problem lies in the fact that JspViewHandlerImpl.renderView
attempts to determine the servlet mapping of the current request. When
coming through struts-faces, the servletPath will be ".do" (or whatever
struts 'action' is mapped to), and JspViewHandlerImpl.getServletMapping
will throw an exception if it does not match the servlet mapping for the
faces servlet.
