Troubleshooting
Problem
Attempts to use .jsp as param-value for the javax.faces.DEFAULT_SUFFIX and *.jsp as url-pattern for the extension mapping in the web.xml file for a JSF 1.1 or 1.2 project in IBM Rational Application Developer for WebSphere Software results in a loop in the Faces Servlet and fails to display the JSF pages.
Cause
The web.xml configuration is incorrect.
Resolving The Problem
To keep the .jsp extension in the URL for the JSF pages, remove the following extension mapping from the web.xml file:
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>Faces Servlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>*.faces</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
