java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.sun.facelets.tag.jsf.ComponentHandler when add tomahawk-1.1.11 [closed]

Question

added tomahawk-1.1.11.jar file to WEB-INF/lib of my web app and get error message:

Exception sending context initialized event to listener instance of class    
com.sun.faces.config.ConfigureListener:   
java.lang.RuntimeException:java.lang.LinkageError: Failed to link 
org/apache/myfaces/custom/aliasbean/AliasBeanTagHandler

Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.sun.facelets.tag.jsf.ComponentHandler 
from [Module "deployment.appFramework.war:main" from Service Module Loader]

Any ideas what could be wrong?

Tomahawk 1.1.11 is available in 2 flavors:

• Tomahawk 1.1.11 for JSF 1.2
• Tomahawk 1.1.11 for JSF 2.0

This exception indicates that you're attempting to install "Tomahawk 1.1.11 for JSF 1.2" on an environment which only supports JSF 2.0. Remove those wrong Tomahawk JARs, download the right Tomahawk version and drop its JARs in /WEB-INF/lib instead.
