I’m trying to create a basic table with JSF 2.0 to send “timesheet” entries to a database. I have written my bean with setters and getters for all fields, and have managed the bean through faces-config, but I keep running into the error:
"com.sun.faces.mgbean.ManagedBeanCreationException: Unable to set property monday1 for managed bean timesheet"
The property name is irrelevant, it’s just the first property listed on faces-config. None of my int properties seem to work.
Here is the HTML / JSF table:
<h:form>
<table>
<thead>
<tr>
<th>Employee Details</th>
<th id="reqBox" colspan="2">
<span class="reqStar">*</span>
<span class="reqText">Required Field</span>
</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>
Employee ID <br />
<input name="empID" type="text" value="#{userBean.id}" readonly="readonly"/>
</td>
<td>
Employee Name <br />
<input name="empName" type="text" value="#{userBean.firstName} #{userBean.lastName}" readonly="readonly" />
</td>
<td>
Week Starting <span class="reqStar">*</span> <br />
<input name="weekOf" type="text" value="" />
<a href="javascript:NewCal('demo1','mmddyyyy')">

if you want to see my stack trace or bean for setters / getters I can put it up as well
You have not specified a valid
intvalue as managed property value. Validintvalues are numbers in the range ofInteger.MIN_VALUEtoInteger.MAX_VALUE. Empty strings or nulls are not a validintvalue. Those are illegal arguments.To fix your problem, either make it
<value>0</value>Or just remove the
<managed-property>altogether and rely on the standard Javaintdefault of0. I have also my doubts with all of those other value-less managed properties by the way. They seem all plain useless in first place. Actually, the whole<managed-bean>entry seems plain useless as you could just use the JSF2@ManagedBeanannotation.
