What is the best route for me to learn how to use MyFaces and
RichFaces, which is where my focus is going to be?

Going from 1998 (applet or desktop app using AWT, maybe web app with
servlets) to 2012 web app with JSF is a huge jump.

I will recommend taking it in multiple steps.

1) general Java from 1.0/1.1 to 1.6/1.7
2) servlets
3) JSP
4) taglibs
5) JSTL amd EL
6) standard JSF
7) extra JSF components in RichFaces

I've been using this tutorial on vogella:
http://www.vogella.com/articles/JavaServerFaces/article.html#installation_eclipse

But as soon as I got to step 5.8 - actually running it - it threw a
bunch of errors.

'de.vogella.jsf.starter.validator.LoginValidator' validator id is is
not registered. LoginView.jsp /de.vogella.jsf.starter/WebContent line

...... Of course, according to the tutorial, this should work.

Something must be missing.

But difficult to say what based on the above.
