Hi Jeff, I did never manage to have this working with facelets. It is probably a facelets issue. The only solution I see is to do an http filter in order to detect directory requests and redirect them to the wanted resource. Please note that if you use apache + mod_jk 1.1.20 and attempt to fix this through the DirectoryIndex directive in Apache, it will not work either: I did place a bug for this in the apache buglist (http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=41430).
