What do you redirect to? /faces/myfile.xhtml?
Actually I can't get this working either. I've discovered that "blank
page" coming up is actually my index.faces dummy file! When I view the
source, I see the comment I wrote in there.
So why would it be going there when I commented out the extension
mapping? Does JBoss treats commented-out items in web.xml as if they are
not commented?
Some relevent parts of web.xml:
--------------------------------
<!-- Use Documents Saved as *.xhtml
<context-param>
<param-name>javax.faces.DEFAULT_SUFFIX</param-name>
<param-value>.xhtml</param-value>
</context-param>-->
<context-param>
<param-name>javax.faces.DEFAULT_SUFFIX</param-name>
<param-value>.jsp</param-value>
</context-param>
<context-param>
<param-name>facelets.VIEW_MAPPINGS</param-name>
<param-value>*.xhtml</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>-->
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>Faces Servlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/faces/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
<welcome-file-list>
<welcome-file>pages/public/index.jsp</welcome-file>
</welcome-file-list>
--------------------------------
/pages/public/ contains index.xhtml, index.jsp, and index.faces. For
some reason, index.faces is being served to the client.
Any ideas?

Not sure if this fits your needs, but I've accomplished this by using a
dummy jsp page that redirects to my 'real' index.xhtml file. Index.jsp as
well as index.xhtml are in my root web directory.

<welcome-file>
index.jsp

Subject: /faces/* servlet mapping and welcome files
Hey guys, quick question:
Does anyone have welcome files working successfully with the /faces/*
servlet mapping? I previously used a *.faces extension mapping, and had
welcome files working with a dummy index.faces file. But now I am
converting to facelets and followed the advice from the archives to get
them to coexist [1]. Now that I'm using /faces/* I have both facelets
and JSP working just fine together except my welcome-file doesn't work
(results in a blank page shown). I've tried different paths combinations
in the welcome-file-list, with no luck so far. Latest entry is pasted
below. Thanks for any tips!
<welcome-file-list>
<!-- OLD <welcome-file>pages/public/index.faces</welcome-file>-->
<welcome-file>faces/pages/public/index.xhtml</welcome-file>
</welcome-file-list>
