The FacesContext is created by FacesServlet which is
definied in the web.xml with an url-pattern.
If you just follow the url-pattern of this
FacesServlet, usually /faces/ or *.faces, or *.jsf,
then the FacesContext will be created.Hi balu,
this is the web.xml that i am using
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
