java.lang.IllegalStateException - Cannot create a session after the response has been committed

I am using JSF + PrimeFaces in my project. I have prepared a Maven project for this. When I compile my project and after when home page gets loaded I am getting the following exception:

java.lang.IllegalStateException: Cannot create a session after the response has been committed

How is this caused and how can I solve it?

This was a bug in Mojarra and has been reported as among others issue 2277. It's been fixed in Mojarra 2.1.8. Currently Mojarra 2.1.9 is already available. Just upgrade to latest and this problem should disappear.

The cause is that the session is been created too late on a first request which returns a relatively large page wherein a view or session scoped managed bean is referenced for the first time relatively late in the page. A view or session scoped bean needs to be stored in the session. If the session doesn't exist yet, it needs to be created.

When a session is to be created for the first time, the server needs to set a cookie in the response header. But this is only possible if the response hasn't been sent (committed) to the client yet. When that has already taken place, then you will face exactly this exception. A part of the response can namely already have been automatically sent when the response buffer has been overflowed, which is usually 2KB, depending on the server configuration. Your page was apparently larger than that buffer size.
