Install of alfresco2.1 into Jboss 4.0.5.GA Faces problem

[mwaldrop]

I'm doing my first install of Alfresco.  My environment is:
Alfresco 2.1
Jboss 4.0.5.GA
SQL Server 2005
jtds1.2.1

After several attempts, I've seemed to get the database connection working following the various postings and README's.  Now when I start Jboss, the SQL server tables get created, no errors in server.log other than ImageMagic issue (i haven't installed it yet).  Application gets deployed successfully, but when I connect to the login page I get:

This error appears several times.

Any input ?  This is a fresh Jboss install so no conflicts with other apps.

Hi,

Have a look on our Wiki here:
http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Install_On_Jboss_4.2.0
And also read the linked page, it might help.

I tried this but got the same results.  I'm using Jboss 4.0.5.GA not 4.2.  Maybe I'll try the 4.2 version of Jboss and see what the results are.

Had this problem too.
It's a problem with myfaces library versions. Alfresco 2.1 uses 1.1.5, and JBoss seems to be loading 1.1.3. I solved this removing myfaces.jar from
"$JBOSS_HOME/server/default/deploy/jbossweb-tomcat55.sar/jsf-libs" , but you can upgrade it to 1.1.5 too.
