The following msg:

message: "/register.xhtml @17,84 value="#{user.username}": Target Unreachable, identifier 'user' resolved to null"

indicates that the 'user' Seam component has not been registered/instantiated by the Seam container when you deployed your application.

in your server.log or console, look for the following section:

13:37:07,168 INFO  [Initialization] Installing components...
13:37:07,215 INFO  [Component] Component: applicationMetaData, scope: SESSION, type: STATEFUL_SESSION_BEAN, class: com.cox.bets.session.ApplicationMetaDataAction, JNDI: BETS/ApplicationMetaDataAction/local
13:37:07,293 INFO  [Component] Component: arbiTestView, scope: CONVERSATION, type: ENTITY_BEAN, class: com.cox.bets.entity.ArbiTestView

and see if Component: user, ... shows up.

if not, you need to figure out if there is a @Name(user) annotation in your classes or not and determine whether or not Seam container is instantiating this component or not...

The example runs fine for me.

@the original poster: what version of Seam and JBoss and how are you building/deploying the app?
