I am using Mojarra 2.1.11 and JBoss AS 6.1.0. I have the same issue as brought up in java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: null source but the answer does not work for me.

The xhtml on the page is syntactically proper (I've tried this with many pages) so I don't think that is the problem. Error text:

Servlet.service() for servlet Faces Servlet threw exception: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: null source
at java.util.EventObject.<init>(Unknown Source) [:1.6.0_31]
at javax.faces.event.SystemEvent.<init>(SystemEvent.java:71) [:2.1.11]
at javax.faces.event.ComponentSystemEvent.<init>(ComponentSystemEvent.java:73) [:2.1.11]
at javax.faces.event.PostRestoreStateEvent.<init>(PostRestoreStateEvent.java:73) [:2.1.11]
at com.sun.faces.lifecycle.RestoreViewPhase.deliverPostRestoreStateEvent(RestoreViewPhase.java:271) [:2.1.11]
...

In web.xml I've set my session timeout to 1 minute, and any page I test produces the above error after that one minute. If I understand correctly, this should instead be producing a ViewExpiredException. If anyone has any idea of something else I can try, I would appreciate it.

Thanks, Clé

If the full stack trace from when the server starts until the error happens would be useful, please let me know.

  • The complete stacktrace would have been helpful. Commented Jul 28, 2012 at 1:11
  • Looking in JBoss AS 6.1.0 component list, I see Mojarra 2.0.3-b5 as version.javax.faces. Are you sure your app is REALLY using mojarra version 2.1.11? Commented Jul 28, 2012 at 1:12
  • You can verify which JSF implementation your app is really using, checking the contents of: FacesContext.class.getPackage().getImplementationVersion() while running on JBoss Commented Jul 28, 2012 at 1:17
  • @eljunior: version info and line numbers in stacktrace so far confirms 2.1.11. Commented Jul 28, 2012 at 1:37
  • @BalusC oh, you're right, my bad, thank you! My eyes skipped reading that without thinking... Commented Jul 28, 2012 at 1:40
