Using Netbeans to deploy a web app on Glassfish 3.1.2.2 and none of my h tags display on the web. For instance:

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html">
    <head>
        <title>Draft Savvy Beers</title>
    </head>
    <h:form>
        <h:body>
            <h1>Search for beers</h1>
            <p><strong>Would you like to search for a beer?</strong>
                <h:inputText value="#{draftSavvyController.searchTerm}" />
                <h:commandButton value="#{draftSavvyController.searchforBeers}" /></p>
        </h:body>
    </h:form>
</html>

displays only the text, no input field or button. Using plain old html shows the fields and buttons obviously, but I can’t access my controller this way. Here is my web.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<web-app version="3.0" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_3_0.xsd">
    <context-param>
        <param-name>javax.faces.PROJECT_STAGE</param-name>
        <param-value>Development</param-value>
    </context-param>
    <context-param>
    <param-name>javax.faces.DEFAULT_SUFFIX</param-name>
    <param-value>.xhtml</param-value>
    </context-param>
    <servlet>
        <servlet-name>Faces Servlet</servlet-name>
        <servlet-class>javax.faces.webapp.FacesServlet</servlet-class>
        <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
    </servlet>
    <servlet-mapping>
        <servlet-name>Faces Servlet</servlet-name>
        <url-pattern>/faces/*</url-pattern>
    </servlet-mapping>
    <session-config>
        <session-timeout>
            30
        </session-timeout>
    </session-config>
    <welcome-file-list>
        <welcome-file>login.xhtml</welcome-file>
    </welcome-file-list>
</web-app>

Let me know if I can provide anymore info. I’m pretty new at this…

    Add this to your web.xml:

    <servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>Faces Servlet</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>*.xhtml</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

    I think the cause of the problem is that the request is not being passed through the FacesServlet.

    The page URL did not match the url-pattern of the FacesServlet, thus it had not any chance to parse the tags.
