IntelliJ hot swapping classes, but not JSF pages

Question

First of all, I would like to say that there is plenty of pages on StackOverflow and I tried all I found related, but I am doing something wrong.

I have IntelliJ server set up to:

• server Tomcat 8
• JDK 8u65
• Maven
• IntelliJ 14
• In Run/Debug configuration I have set
  • VM Options:
    • On Update action: Update resources
    • On frame deactivation: Update classes and resources
• Before launch: Build xxx.war exploded
• Deployment tab set to deploy xxx.war exploded

If I change the body of any class (e.g.returned value), everything is fine and it hot swap the class as I would expect.

Unfortunatelly when I change some JSF resources(under webapp directory), nothing happens. I looked into Tomcat temp directory, where files are moved into, and I can see only the old ones.

I also tried to add webapp directory as resources in IntelliJ, and it did not help.

Where do I have mistake?

My project structure:

    src
    └── main
        ├── java
        |    └── *.java
        ├── resources
        |    └── spring-web-context.xml    
        └── webapp
             ├── template.xhtml
             ├── ...
             └── index.xhtml

Answer 1

I decided to do fresh instalation of IntelliJ and take some JSF sample project.

I found out that the settings described is working, so there is something wrong either with my working project, or instalation of IntelliJ
