validator="" attribute of <h:inputtext> in jsf causing exception

We are trying to migrate from WS5 to WAS7 and the jsf code is causing the following error

Original Exception: 

Error Message: JSPG0227E: Exception caught while translating /jsp/listView/listViewUPD_MAP_UM01.jsp: JSPG0301E: Invalid attribute, validator, for deferred method returning void. 
Error Code: 500
Target Servlet: /jsp/listView/listViewUPD_MAP_UM01.jsp

We faced exact problem while moving from WebSphere 6.2 to WebSphere 8.5.5

<%@ page isELIgnored="false" deferredSyntaxAllowedAsLiteral="false"%> works like charm.

But changing web.xml not working at least for WebSphere 8.5.5

Have similar problem, migrating from WAS6.1 to WAS7.0:

Exception: 

com.ibm.ws.jsp.translator.JspTranslationException: JSPG0227E: Exception caught while translating /RegisterName.jsp:  
    JSPG0301E: Invalid attribute, validator, for deferred method returning void.
        at com.ibm.ws.jsp.translator.visitor.generator.BaseTagGenerator.evaluateAttribute(BaseTagGenerator.java:527)

RegisterName.jsp snippet: 

<h:inputText
    id="callerName" 
    size="50"
    value="#{callerSC.currentCaller.name}"
    required="true" 
    validator="#{callerSC.validateCallerName}" 
    converter="StringTrimmer"
    onchange='return setFocusOn(this, "nextButton");'
>
        </h:inputText>

Got a tip to include the following snippet into my jsp pages 

<%@ page isELIgnored="false" deferredSyntaxAllowedAsLiteral="false"%>

Worked for me, the exception went away

Alternative is to add following snippet into web.xml to specify el-ignored=false for JSPs 

<jsp-config>                                                            
<jsp-property-group>                                                    
<url-pattern>*.jsp</url-pattern>                                        
<el-ignored>false</el-ignored>                                          
</jsp-property-group>                                                   
</jsp-config>
