Ever Wondered why your Application wont start because of this error. The Reason is Simple The Deployment path of the Faces-Config contains space mostly or some illegal character. Eg : Say your workspace is ina path like below file:/C:/Documents and Settings/ The error gonna be like this java.net.URISyntaxException: Illegal character in path at index 18: file:/C:/Documents and Settings/ Move it to a location without space in the URI Path.
