I been trying to add some JSF(Face) code into my Spring Webflow project but I am getting the following error:
java.lang.IllegalStateException: FacesContext has not been initialized within the current Web Flow request. Check the configuration for your <webflow:flow-executor>. For JSF you will need FlowFacesContextLifecycleListener configured as one of its flow execution listeners.
Here is my flow.xml file
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
