Resolution:

The managed property name set in the faces-config.xml file within the <managed-property> and the <property-name> elements does not match with the JavaBean property name as in the Managed Bean class and/or with the property name in the JSF tags in the JSPs. The property name in the managed bean class, as per JavaBean conventions, must be the same as set in the faces-config.xml configuration file as well as the property name used in the JSF tags in any of the JSPs.

Resolution:

The exception occurs due to an error in the JSF-specific configuration file, faces-config.xml, which must comply with XML rules for well-formed-ness and validity. Check for an incorrectly terminated XML element or an incorrectly spelled element, or other such errors in the faces-config.xml

The error message in the Server console log also pin-points the line number where the error has occured, fairly well.

Resolution:


Removing 2 jars: jsf-api.jar and jsf-impl.jar removed the exception for me. However, some other jars that may have to be removed: el-api.jar, el-ri.jar, jsf-tlds.jar

The exception is caused, apparently, due to a versioning issue between the jars in the lib of the Web Application and the jars in the JBoss Application Server.
