JSF PropertyNotFound Exception on Tomcat 6 outside of Eclipse

Question

I have an app that runs perfectly on tomcat 6 in eclipse. When I take this app and manually deploy it to that same tomcat server outside of eclipse and run it, I get javax.el.PropertyNotFoundException when trying to access many of the pages.

How can i get a PropertyNotFoundException when running an app outside of eclipse, but not in eclipse?

Stacktrace when trying to access a page:

Answer 1

javax.el.PropertyNotFoundException: /ccadmin/publications/search.xhtml @107,92 value="#{pubBacker.beginYear}": Property 'beginYear' not found on type com.ccadmin.backing.PublicationBacker clearly specifies it is missing beginYear property for pubBacker bean.

Check if jar is updated. It is common mistake, at least for me. Some part of code is updated, but jar is not updated(mvn install).
