Description

If you forget to add the Spring DelegatingVariableResolver (or one of its variants) to faces-config, you get this error message:

"No AccessScopeManager found. Probably you forgot to add <import resource=\"classpath*:/META-INF/spring-orchestra-init.xml\" />" to your spring configuration."

"his really needs to be generalized into something like "No AccessScopeManager found. Is your dependency injection framework configured correctly? For Spring and JSF, this means adding <import resource=\"classpath*:/META-INF/spring-orchestra-init.xml\" />" to your Spring configuration and also adding the Spring DelegatingVariableResolver (or one of its subclasses) to your JSF configuration."

Maybe that's a little verbose, but you get the idea. The existing message can send you down the wrong path.
