I'm following a tutorial and trying my first JSF program. This is what I have so far:
faces-config.xml:

LoginBean.java:
/**
* LoginBean.java
*
*/
package com.tutorial;
public class LoginBean
{
private String name;
private String password;
public String getName ()
{
return name;
}
public void setName (final String name)
{
this.name = name;
}
public String getPassword ()
{
return password;
}
public void setPassword (final String password)
{
this.password = password;
}
}
However, when I run it, it throws the following exception:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: null source

How is this caused and how can I solve it?
