What is the minimally required server to deploy JSF 2.0 project?

I can either install Tomcat or glas开发者_如何转开发sfish server in the production server inorder to deploy my JSF 2.0 project. Which from which versions of these servers are compatible with JSF 2.0? Please give suggestion.

I have developed with Mojarra 2.0.2, Facelets and PrimeFaces, Netbeans 6.8

In general you need at least a server that supports Servlet 2.5 or later for JSF 2.0 (found at coreservlets.com JSF 2.0 tutorial), e.g.:

• Tomcat 6+
• Glassfish 2.1+
• Jetty 6+
• Google App Engine
• JBoss 5+
• WebSphere 6+
• WebLogic 9+

If not integrated, you then need jsf-api.jar and jsf-impl.jar for JSF 2.0

If you have a server that supports Java EE 6 (Glassfish 3, JBoss 6, WebLogic 11g) these jar's are already included.

JSF 2.0 uses version 2.5 of the servlet-api, which means it should be compatible with Tomcat version 6.0.x.
