After cloning the example, and switching configurations over one file at a time, I found that the problem was my web.xml entry for a security filter (http://securityfilter.sourceforge.net/). It matched /* and was disrupting tiles from working properly.

At a few points I got errors about i/o errors and finding my template file. Each time I got that it was related to web.xml entries as well. So if you're having troubles when trying to get tiles set up, I'd suggest starting with web.xml.

I tried the same thing about a year ago (you can probably find the old
messages in the archives), and concluded that Facelets provides the same
ability and is much simpler to use from JSF.  I eventually convinced the
powers that be at our company that JSF wasn't the right direction for us
(thank goodness!), so we're using Tiles2 with Struts2 on top of Spring and
things have been awesome ever since.  If you're dedicated to JSF, I'd
definitely look into Facelets.

Did you put reference on you custom tiles config in web.xml? How you did
that?

I'm using tiles 2.0.5 with myFaces.  I was able to get my application to
deploy, but when I got to my tiles page nothing inside <f:view> is output
to
the browser.  When I made a sample page without tiles, it worked as
expected.  So I know JSF is set up properly.

I deployed myfaces-example-tiles-1.1.8, and that worked fine.  I copied
the
configuration settings and jsp pages into my tomcat project and nothing
in
f:view renders there either..  Nothing helpful in the logs, even at debug
level.  What should I be looking at to find out what's going on?

Thanks,
Adam
