Can't get the deployment to use custom widget set

Flow
1

Hello,
I’m having issues getting Vaadin to load a custom widgetset. I have it working correctly in a Vaadin project but in my Web App project in which Vaadin is integrated it refuses to work.

I’ve had a look around for anyone else having this issue but can’t seem to locate a solution.

I made my project include the Vaadin facet and the widgetset claims to build successfully but the debug output on the webpage says it is still loading the default (com.vaadin.terminal.gwt.DefaultWidgetSet).

Below is some of the outputs from the system, if there are other outputs that would prove useful please let me know.

web.xml

<context-param>
		<description>Vaadin production mode</description>
		<param-name>productionMode</param-name>
		<param-value>false</param-value>
	</context-param>
	<servlet>

Vaadin version is 6.8.4

Hoping someone can help

Hello,
After much searching and comparing I found that the web-app definition was slightly different between the Vaadin project and the web app project.

Changing

<web-app xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
       xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee" 
       xmlns:web="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd"
         xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_3_0.xsd"
         id="WebApp_ID" 
       version="3.0">

To

<web-app id="WebApp_ID" version="2.4" 
       xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee" 
       xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"                    xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/web-app_2_4.xsd">

(The one that the Vaadin project creates)

Appears to work and not break other items in my project.
