Parameter message is null.

Hello Forum,

I am using:
jboss version 5.0.1.GA
seam version 2.1.2.GA
richfaces version 3.3.1.GA

I started seeing this exception after I upgraded to 2.1.2GA. I don't know what the message referred to is. All of the exception tags I have in my pages.xml have a message tag defined. Can anyone point me to an explanation? The root cause is usually something else; this exception is then repeated over and over in the log. Firefox shows me a Redirect loop error page.

I saw an earlier post on this topic but no answer was provided.
