cannot find "theme.css" resource of "primefaces-" library

Hi

I use tomcat 9 on top of jdk1.8, after download the package, I un-comment the mojarra profile section and run "mvn install -P mojarra"

war file is successfully build. However when running, it give me the error shown below.

[Error] 29-Aug-2016 01:13:53.279 SEVERE [http-nio-8080-exec-6] com.sun.faces.application.view.FaceletViewHandlingStrategy.handleRenderException Error Rendering View[/views/chapter11/errors/throwable.xhtml] javax.faces.FacesException: Error loading css, cannot find "theme.css" resource of "primefaces-" library at org.primefaces.renderkit.HeadRenderer.encodeCSS(HeadRenderer.java:145) at org.primefaces.renderkit.HeadRenderer.encodeBegin(HeadRenderer.java:77) at javax.faces.component.UIComponentBase.encodeBegin(UIComponentBase.java:864)

Firstly it seem like the them 1.0.10 is not available in Maven repo, so I changed to 1.0.8 https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.primefaces.extensions/all-themes

But still same error. Any help?

So far the workaround is modify web.xml to hard code the theme name as shown below.

primefaces.THEME cupertino

To make it run in Tomcat9 you also have to take care of the dependencies as well.

<dependencies>
                <dependency>
                    <groupId>com.sun.faces</groupId>
                    <artifactId>jsf-api</artifactId>
                    <version>${mojarra.version}</version>
                    <scope>provided</scope>
                </dependency>
                <!--
                <dependency>
                    <groupId>com.sun.faces</groupId>
                    <artifactId>jsf-impl</artifactId>
                    <version>${mojarra.version}</version>
                    <scope>provided</scope>
                </dependency>
                -->
            </dependencies>

should looks like

<dependencies>
                <dependency>
                    <groupId>com.sun.faces</groupId>
                    <artifactId>jsf-api</artifactId>
                    <version>${mojarra.version}</version>
                </dependency>
                <dependency>
                    <groupId>com.sun.faces</groupId>
                    <artifactId>jsf-impl</artifactId>
                    <version>${mojarra.version}</version>
                </dependency>
            </dependencies>

and @limsongjing said, the theme must be hardcoded otherwise won't work.

    <context-param>
        <param-name>primefaces.THEME</param-name>
        <param-value>cupertino</param-value>
    </context-param>
