Can anyone help to fix this issue?

Make sure that you have all the dependencies of MyFaces and their corresponding versions.

http://myfaces.apache.org/core22/dependency-management.html

The last versions use commons-digester version 1.8.

It could also be a classloader issue, maybe this link helps WAS 8.5.5 & MyFaces 2.1 Shared library
