Tomcat 6 and JSF 1.2
I am trying to get one the sample web apps that came with JSF 1.2to work in Tomcat 6 alpha. I saw this
http://forums.java.net/jive/thread.jspa?messageID=168287
and I added the files as suggested by "smlp" in that thread. That removed the first error. But it produces a call loop. Now I get the following error.

Thanks for your time, rlubke.
Ok, now I am working with Tomcat 6.0.0with JSF 1.2.03 . Here is what I did.
I copied the samples (jsf-cardemo.war jsf-guessNumber.war) into Tomcat's webapps folder.
I started and stopped Tomcat(to unpack the web apps).
I copied the contents of the lib folder of the JSF distribution into the lib folder of each web app(the two jars and the six dtds).
I created a META-INF folder as described by "smlp" at the first link I posted at the top of this.
Still same error as top of this.

Thanks, rlubke, deleting the work folders for the two web apps and starting again did get rid of my original error message.
Now the cardemo app comes up but I see the following message in console.

and when I click on the "more" button on the car image page I get this message
