JSF 2.0. Issues with .png

Question

I am running into an issue trying to render.png image using jsf 2.0, where as JPG works fine

h:graphicImage library="img" name="logo.png" --> Does not work, null pointer as shown below

h:graphicImage library="img" name="logo.jpg --> No issues

Update I see the following from Chrome Developer Tools console Resource interpreted as Image but transferred with MIME type text/html

Not sure if I need to set the content type in web.xml

resource structure

WebContent/resources/img/logo.png

ErrorPageWrit E   An exception occurred

Can you edit your answer to include your resources folder's structure? — Mr.J4mes

Resolved.

Seems to be an issue with the mime mappings. For some reason png is not recognized by the server. Added mime mapping for png in web.xml

Using MyFaces Implementation, WAS7.
