JSF interaction with database

Following bean's database related code is working in simple Java application but when i use it within JSF page it is giving Java null pointer exception error. Thanks in advance.

Bean class:-

import java.io.Serializable;
import javax.faces.bean.ManagedBean;
import javax.faces.bean.SessionScoped;
import java.sql.Connection;
import java.sql.DriverManager;
import java.sql.PreparedStatement;
@ManagedBean
@SessionScoped     

public class Db implements Serializable{
    int eId;
    public int geteId() {
        return eId;
    }
    public void seteId(int eId) {
        this.eId = eId;
    }
    public static Connection getConnection() throws Exception {
        String driver = "oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver";
        String url = "jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:globldb3";
        String username = "scott";
        String password = "tiger";
        Class.forName(driver);
        Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection(url, username, password);
        return conn;
      }
    public String addEmployee() throws Exception{
        Connection conn = null;
        PreparedStatement pstmt = null;
            try {
                    int a = this.eId;
                    conn = getConnection();
                    String query = "INSERT INTO c(n) VALUES(?)";
                    pstmt = conn.prepareStatement(query); 
                    pstmt.setInt(1,a); 
                    pstmt.executeUpdate(); // execute insert statement
                    return "success";
                 } catch (Exception e) {
                        e.printStackTrace();
                        return "failure";
                 } finally {
                        pstmt.close();
                        conn.close();
                 }
     }     
}

Following is my JSF page

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets"
xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"
xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core">
<body>
     <h:form>
  <p>Enter value  <h:inputText value="#{db.eId}"/> </p>
  <p> <h:commandButton value="Add record" action="#{db.addEmployee}"/> </p>
  </h:form>
 </body>
 </html>

Here,

} finally {
    pstmt.close();
    conn.close();
}

you aren't checking if they are null before you close them. If an exception is been thrown upon connecting, they will stay null. Fix it as follows:

} finally {
    if (pstmt != null) pstmt.close();
    if (conn != null) conn.close();
}

There are no other potential causes for a NPE in the addEmployee() method. I see that you've an e.printStackTrace() call in the catch block. Read this one for the real cause of the problem. I guess that it's a ClassNotFoundException on the JDBC driver class, because you forgot to put the JDBC driver in /WEB-INF/lib folder of the webapp.
