Facelets has some external jar requirements that you're missing; in this case it is the apache commons-logging jar. Add this jar to your war file (or appropriate place in tomcat if sharing) and you'll be off and running, at least until you hit the next dependency jar that you might have missed.

My first try is failed because of java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.commons.logging.impl.Log4JLogger. I am sure I did not have this exception when I did not use facelets. I am useing tomcat 5 and all the log4j jars are included in my project. I dont know where to troubleshoot. Have you seen this error when you use facelets? Can anyone kindly provide a simple example for facelets? Thanks a lot!
