[org.jboss.seam.servlet.SeamExceptionFilter] uncaught exception javax.servlet.ServletException: Error calling action method of component with id register:register is too generic. I am asking for the full stack to see what is causing it. With you original code it was | Caused by: org.hibernate.QueryException: unexpected char: '#' [select u.username from com.vds.seamregistration.bean.User u where u.username=#{user.username}] | The cause should be different now.
