Can anyone help me about mapping Faces Context please?

Question

Hello buddies!!
Well, my application does'nt even load when i run it and i map the Faces Servlet like below:
<servlet-mapping>
        <servlet-name>Faces Servlet</servlet-name>
        <url-pattern>*.jsp</url-pattern>
    </servlet-mapping>On the other side, it run perfectly when i put the mapping below :
<servlet-mapping>
        <servlet-name>Faces Servlet</servlet-name>
        <url-pattern>/faces/*</url-pattern>
    </servlet-mapping>but all my links must have the "faces" befores its real url for instance:
<c:url value="faces/Logout" var="url"/>
        <a href="${url}" >Link</a> and it keeps adding the "faces" everytime i click a link on the adress bar like that:
http://myhost/myapp/faces/faces/faces/faces/home.jsp
Thanks very much for any advice!!
All the best!

Don't use *.jsp as the mapping for the FacesServlet. This will override the implicit container mapping for JSPs. Instead, use *.jsf, or *.faces.
