richfaces + eclipse ee + tomcat 7

am having a problem configuring tomcat with richfaces. I copied the:

richfaces-components-ui-4.2.2.Final.jar
richfaces-components-api-4.2.2.Final.jar
richfaces-core-api-4.2.2.Final.jar
richfaces-core-impl-4.2.2.Final.jar

jars into tomcat's \lib and restarted my server. The definition of my xhtml page looks like this:

  <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
     xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets"
     xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"
     xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"
     xmlns:a4j="http://richfaces.org/a4j"
     xmlns:rich="http://richfaces.org/rich">

But eclipse generates a warning which says 

NSL missing: CANNOT_FIND_FACELET_TAGLIB in : org.eclipse.jst.jsf.core.validation.internal.facelet.messages

Is there any other thing I need to configure? I skimmed a lot of tutorials but almost all uses JBoss. Is there a way to configure richfaces with my eclipse and tomcat?

Edited

When I add the jars as external jars, and add the dependencies too, it does not crash the site,though in the console it produces a this:

Which I assume is because some libraries are missing

UPDATE

Here are my config files:

I also tried tomahawk lib, but I removed it and cleaned the project. I tried this example to test richface but there is nothing displayed.

The console message still remains valid, even though I don't have any reference to tomahawk neither I have it in my buildpath and the project and server is clean. I also tried to add to the buildpath myfaces-impl.jar, does not help. The same console messages come up.

But eclipse generates a warning which says

NSL missing: CANNOT_FIND_FACELET_TAGLIB in : org.eclipse.jst.jsf.core.validation.internal.facelet.messages

That's because you placed the RichFaces libraries in Tomcat instead of in webapp itself. Those libraries are supposed to be placed in webapp's own /WEB-INF/lib. Otherwise you need to add the RichFaces libraries to the server-supplied libraries in Eclipse project buildpath settings. Eclipse namely doesn't expect that you modify the default libraries of Tomcat.

When I add the jars as external jars, and add the dependencies too, it does not crash the site,though in the console it produces a this:

Those are just INFO messages, not WARNING messages. This is specific to MyFaces and those are just to inform the developer/serveradmin what actions MyFaces has taken as to setting some applicationwide parameters. Just ignore them. Only once you get a WARNING, SEVERE, ERROR or FATAL, then you may start worrying. You do not necessarily need Tomahawk.

Folowing dependencies are required:

  • sac-1.3.jar,
  • cssparser-0.9.5.jar - for CSS styling.
  • guava-r09.jar - core runtime dependency.

And of course javax.faces.jar for JSF (or myfaces alternative), take a look here

UPDATE:

And @BalusC have suggested these steps:

  • Close/reopen project.
  • Rightclick project > Validate.
  • Project > Clean... and clean selected project.
  • Restart Eclipse.

UPDATE 2:

I've prepared a working initial (Dynamic Web) project based on mojarra JSF 2.1, you can download it here. Place this libraries to its WEB-INF\lib folder, start it on tomcat7 server:

http://localhost:8080/TEST/
