Noob question: virtual path mapping

[Carl Sziebert <ca...@vegas.com>]

Hello all:
 
First, I did STFU with no luck, sorry if this question has been asked
and answered a million times before.  I'm new to JSF and am tasked to
evaluate it as a replacement for Struts.  I am attempting to run the
blank example application using the virtual path mapping enabled
(/faces/*) instead of *.jsf.  Unfortunately when I attempt to visit the
URL: http://localhost:8080/blank/faces/helloWorld the app blows up and I
get the error below.  Why does the app work with *.jsf but not /faces/*?
What did I miss during configuration?  Or did I screw something else up?

 
java.lang.IllegalStateException: No Factories configured for this
Application - typically this is because a context listener is not setup
in your web.xml.
A typical config looks like this;
<listener>
 
<listener-class>org.apache.myfaces.webapp.StartupServletContextListener<
/listener-class>
</listener>

javax.faces.FactoryFinder.getFactory(FactoryFinder.java:84)
javax.faces.webapp.FacesServlet.init(FacesServlet.java:84)

TIA.

Aren't you calling "http://localhost:8080/blank/faces/helloWorld.jsp"   ?

(Note: .jsp, not jsF)
