Stan Silvert commented on AS7-3332:
-----------------------------------

That part of the spec just means that you can use the Facelets versions of some JSTL tags.  It does not mean that you can use the actual JSTL tag library.  Since I saw your declared namespace xmlns:c="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core", that's what I thought you were doing.  I didn't remember that JSF 2.1 supports both http://java.sun.com/jstl/core and http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core.  Sorry for my error.

Anyway, the Facelets version of the tag is completely different code, so it's not surprising that they work (or fail) differently.

I'm thinking the problem may be in your <c:if> tag rather than the ,<c:catch> tag.  Have you tried replacing the $ with a #?

<c:if test="#{ex != null}">

> When using the JSTL c:catch tag inside JSP pages, and I access an EL expression that throws a custom exception, the tag works fine.
> But when I use it with facelets, the c:catch is ignored and a HTTP500 message is sent to the client.
