I made the appropriate changes, and resolved the error I was getting, but now I am getting: 15:13:24,522 WARN [HtmlRenderKitImpl] Unsupported component-family/renderer-type: javax.faces.Panel/com.poc.jsf.cc.HotelActivity.HotelActivityComponentRen derer Regards, Joshua Pheneger

Components and renderers are registered in the faces-conifg.xml file. Component renderers (optional) are also registered in the faces-config [1]. Each component [2] should provide a "family". If the rendering is delegated then the "rendererType" should be specified. These values correspond to the "component-type" and "renderer-type" in the faces config. JSF will automatically load "faces-config" files in the "/META-INF" folders and within the "/WEB-INF". You can optional specify additional configuration files in the web.xml. If you are using the component with JSP, you need a JSP tag to instantiate the component and add it to the component tree. JSF/JSP tags act as "factories" versus encapsulating rendering of mark-up. The JSP tag should specify the component type and renderer type [3].
