I need to run my Java EE 6 project on WebSphere Application Server 8.0.0.3.
The Server has Apache MyFaces 2.0 Support.
When I use the Server lib, the deployment works, but my application has some bugs.
Therefore I use Apache MyFaces 2.1.8. I put the api and impl in my WEB-INF/lib/ dir.
Also I configured my WAS parent_last and jsf-implementation SUNRI1.2.
When I deploy my project I get the following Exception:

My faces-config is empty.
What can I do to fix this issue?
Setting the WarClassloader parent last fixed the problem. Another way is shared lib.
