Field set in action method coming null in JSP

[Sushma Sharma]

Hi All,

I have run into this weird problem. I am using sun ri 1.1_01 implementation.
I am having problem getting field values from a bean on the jsp page. From my first page I click on a button and it goes to the action method in the managed bean. In this method I set the values of the fields. before returning the view Id, I print these values and everything is set. but when it goes to the next page, it does not display any values.
I have other action methods, where I am setting the same values and I am able to get those values.
The same method was working in a previous version of ear. I don't know what went wrong and it stopped working.

Here is my code of the method

    
 
this.setUserRequestedInfo(MetaDAOFactory.getDAO()
.getAccountInfoByUID(uId));
if (this.getUserRequestedInfo() == null) {
this.addMSGException("userRequested.not.valid");
return NavigationResults.FAILURE;
}
 
this.logger.debug("\n\nBEFORE RETURNING FROM DEPART this.getUserRequestedInfo() = " 
+ this.getUserRequestedInfo());
return NavigationResults.SUCCESS;
 

before the return statement, when I log the values of userRequested, it prints the details, but I don't get this value in my jsp...
Is it JSF life cycle bug?

What's the scope of the backing bean?
