I can't seem to figure this one out...

When deploying a JSF web app Glassfish complains about not being able to find JSFSServlet. It's Glassfish 4 EE and I checked that c:/glassfish4/glassfish/modules contains javax.faces.jar.

My webapp doesn't have a JSF jar included in the WEB-INF/lib so there is no clash with the jar on the glassfish server.

I've re-installed my JDK and re-set my JAVA_HOME & path environment variables. Confirmed these are working by running java -version & javac -version from the command prompt which indicate I am running JDK1.7.25.

I've tried running Glassfish by: 1) Using eclipse (pointing to the correct JDK) 2) Standalone with WAR

And I get the same result!

What may be related is the install failed for Glassfish with the "requires version 1.6 or above" message and I had to install using glassfish-4-install.exe -j %JAVA_HOME%

Any help would be much appreciated! Here is the stack trace from glassfish:

SOLVED! Eclipse was listing javax.faces.JSFServlet as the class for JSF. Changed this to javax.faces.webapp.FacesServlet!
