Gah, I got frustrated with this attempt. I've been using extensions mapping successfully for about a year, and I'm comfortable with that, so I've switched back to it. That will simply mean that I have to hurry up and convert the rest of the application to facelets to make it all work again. :)

Thanks all for the tips!

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>

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).

Cheers,

Giampaolo
