See the following thread posted a couple hours earlier. Basically, there's another JSF implementation you need to remove. I think there's also a ws.jar file (or something named like that) which also has to be removed. This question comes up a lot -- it'd be great if someone using WebSphere would add an entry to the wiki page on it. http://wiki.apache.org/myfaces/Installation_and_Configuration ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: sia far <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Mar 29, 2006 9:31 AM Subject: RE: websphere 6 and myfaces compatibility To: [email protected] Websphere 6.0 loads IBM JSF jar files during the startup. You may need to remove them to avoid conflicts. Though I removed those jars and changing to Parent_Last, I was unable to run the sample apps on WAS6.0 fully. If this app is a production app, then good luck to you and let me know if you can make it work. If not, you may want to give it a break till things get more stable. >From: Mohamed Inelhaj <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Reply-To: "MyFaces Development" <[email protected]> >To: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> >Subject: websphere 6 and myfaces compatibility >Date: Wed, 29 Mar 2006 14:30:48 +0200 > >I am trying to migrate an application based on myfaces 1.1.0 from tomcat >to websphere 6 with no success. > >I get an nullPointerException > > > >[3/29/06 14:12:20:888 CEST] 00000049 ServletWrappe E SRVE0068E: Could >not invoke the service() method on servlet Controller Servlet.
