Grails with JSF2: WAR cannot run on Tomcat 6

I'm using the jsf2 plugin for my app. Running the app with "run-app" it works fine.

But when I deploy the war to a clean Tomcat 6, this error occurs:

com.sun.faces.config.ConfigurationException: 
  Source Document: web.xml
  Cause: Unable to create a new instance of 'org.doc4web.grails.jsf.facelets.GrailsResourceResolver': org.springframework.beans.factory.NoSuchBeanDefinitionException: No bean named 'groovyPageResourceLoader' is defined

    ... 36 more

For additional info:

I had to copy the JSF-API (Mojarra 2.0.2) libs to the Tomcat lib folder. Otherwise the javax.faces.application.ApplicationFactory could not be found.

There is an alternate plugin fork available in google code: jsf4g

The jsf2 plugin will not work in production mode because the reference to the value groovyPageResourceLoader is available only in development mode Ref- grails-1.x

The forked plugin has a fix for it, but that will not work for Grails2.x which needs a fix yet.
