Hi Sonara,
do you have your tags in a <h:form>?
I will post you come code, that works, so you can compare.
The JSF Page:
<h:form id="loginForm">
<h:inputText id="username" value="#{loginBean.username}" tabindex="1" required="true"/>
<h:inputSecret id="password" value="#{loginBean.password}" tabindex="2"/>
<h:commandButton id="submit" action="#{loginBean.login}" value="#{messages.login}" tabindex="3" alt="#{messages.login}" styleClass="bgTextBright"/>
</h:form>A part of the faces-config.xml:
<managed-bean>
     <managed-bean-name>loginBean</managed-bean-name>
     <managed-bean-class>packageDeclaration.LoginBean</managed-bean-class>
     <managed-bean-scope>request</managed-bean-scope>
</managed-bean>And a part fo the LoginBean.java:
public class LoginBean
String username = "";
String password = "";     
    public LoginBean()
     public String getPassword()
          return password;
     public void setPassword(String s)
          password = s;
     public String getUsername()
          return username;
     public void setUsername(String s)
          username = s;
     public String login()
         Login l = new Login();
         boolean login = l.checkLogin(this.getUsername(), this.getPassword());
          String retVal = Constants.LOGIN_NOK;
          HttpServletRequest r = (HttpServletRequest) FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getRequest();
          if (login == true)
              retVal = Constants.LOGIN_OK;
              r.getSession(true).setAttribute("user", this.getUsername());
              r.getSession(true).setAttribute("name", "Testuser");
          else
              retVal = Constants.LOGIN_NOK;
              r.getSession(true).setAttribute("user", null);
          return retVal;
}Hope this can help you.
