java.lang.IllegalStateException after adding rich

Question

I am trying to run my first JSF application using RichFaces. Unfortunately the error below is being thrown. There is no bean added to my project.

Also, there's no tags added yet. Just trying to run simple empty xhtml file. What is the problem?

I'm using Eclipse Luna 4.4.2, GlassFish 4, and OSX.

Answer 1

According to this JSF 2.2.7 is the culprit. You can either downgrade JSF to 2.2.6 or update Richfaces to 4.5.
