Second problem is i not give group table into combobox with h:selectOne

<h:outputLabel value="Igroup:" for="igroup" />
                    <h:selectOneMenu id="igroup" value="#{userController.user.igroup}" title="Igroup" required="true" requiredMessage="The Igroup field is required.">
                        <!-- TODO: update below reference to list of available items-->
                        <f:selectItems value="#{userController.grouplist}"/>
                    </h:selectOneMenu>

When i used error occured, i dont know why occur error? i write getGrouplist from JSFManageBean and have 1 method getAllGroup Current of table in database.

Hey, I just ran into a very similar problem and stumbled upon this from Google. I fixed it by creating an empty data object in the ManagedBean that you're mapping it to, in your case that would be correcting

"private Iuser user;"

to

"private Iuser user = new Iuser();"

in the UserController class.

As I'm pretty new to EE myself, I can't really explain why, but it helped me & hope it solves your problem too...

request scope means that on each request your controller is recreated, and the original values - lost. In addition to that comment, you can use annotations with JSF 2.0. So you can put

@ViewScoped
@ManagedBean
public class UserController {..}

See this for more info.

You must create a converter class for "group" to use in selectOnemenu like this example

selectonemenu jsf on objects with converter`

and use like this:

  <h:selectOneMenu id="igroup" value="#{userController.user.igroup}" title="Igroup"                         required="true" requiredMessage="The Igroup field is required.">
                        <!-- TODO: update below reference to list of available items-->
                        <f:selectItems value="#{userController.grouplist}"/>
                      <f:converter converterId="groupConverter" />
                    </h:selectOneMenu>

---

In your ManagedBean instead below:

private UserSessionBean userSessionBean = new UserSessionBean;

And solve it.
