JSF 2.0 Target Unreachable for Managed Bean Annotation - jsf-2

I am trying to run a simple JSF 2.0 project using prime faces 3.5 on Apache Tomcat 7.0. I used annotations for Managed Bean.
I'm getting this error on submit of index.xhtml
javax.el.PropertyNotFoundException: /index.xhtml #16,60 value="#{homeBean.firstname}": Target Unreachable, identifier 'homeBean' resolved to null

I've created and tested a project with supplied configurations and can't reproduce your error. I suspect that you've not rebuilt/redeployed your project.
Moreover, you should use h:head and h:body in JSF 2. If you omit h:head, PrimeFaces wont be able to add required scripts for AJAX functions so your project can't work. So you should change your index.xhtml like this :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

<h:head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" />
<title>Home Page</title>
</h:head>
<h:body>
<f:view>
<h:form id="form">
<h:panelGrid columns="4" cellpadding="5">
<h:outputLabel for="name" value="Name:" style="font-weight:bold" />
<p:inputText id="name" value="#{homeBean.firstname}" />

<h:outputText value="#{homeBean.firstname}" id="display" />
</h:panelGrid>

Before I was using
<h:form>
<h:commandLink action="#{loginBean.doLogout}" value="Logout" />
</h:form>
or
<h:form>
<h:commandButton value="Avanti" action="#{loginBean.doLogout}" styleClass="btn btn-primary"/>
</h:form>
All the problem started using PrimeFaces.
With BalusC suggestion continuation of pressing button twice i have solved more or less.
<p:button ... outcome="otherViewId" />
I can't understand the real problem. Is related with templating or in general is related with the normal usage of JSF.
In https://java.net/jira/browse/JAVASERVERFACES_SPEC_PUBLIC-790 a possible solution is the use of OmniFaces or the same script from Prime Faces http://showcase.omnifaces.org/scripts/FixViewState
A possible solution is mentioned here
how to fixe twice needed click inside JSF page?
And
h:commandButton/h:commandLink does not work on first click, works only on second click
Where the solution is the script.
I have also read
commandButton/commandLink/ajax action/listener method not invoked or input value not updated
and
Which XHTML files do I need to put in /WEB-INF and which not?.

JSP is not supported in JSF 2.
Create index.html with redirect to login page using meta tag:
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; url=./login.jsf" />
Simple example here

Images won't display, navigation won't occur (learning? JSF 2)

Here is the JSF code trying to display and navigate.
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

<h:button value = "Proceed to page 2" outcomr = "gotopage2"/></p>

<h:dataTable border="1" var="book"

<h:link outcome="gotopage2">

This is the result of a snippet from "view source" on the page
<h1>Images</h1>
<p><img src="RES_NOT_FOUND" /><input type="button" onclick="window.location.href='/jsfreg/faces/store/storePage.xhtml'; return false;" value="Proceed to page 2" /></p>

<td><img src="/jsfreg/resources/images/img_coreJsf.jpg" height="150" width="150" /><span>: This link is disabled because a navigation case could not be matched.Proceed to page 2</span></td>
</tr>
The core problem is that I can't get images to display and can't get static navigation to work.
I have tried moving the images/*.jpg folder to every possible location I can think of beneath the application root, under WEB-INF, etc.
I am using Glassfish 4 and Maven.

jsf2 template and adding style sheet

Trying to use the JSF2 templates feature.The base.xhtml page looks like below
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"
xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets"
>
<h:head>
<h:outputStylesheet name="test.css" library="style" target="head"/>
</h:head>
<h:body>
<div id="page">
<div id="header">
<ui:insert name="header" >
<ui:include src="/layout/header.xhtml" />
</ui:insert>
</div>
<div id="content">
<ui:insert name="content" >
???
</ui:insert>
</div>
<div id="footer">
<ui:insert name="footer" >
<ui:include src="/layout/footer.xhtml" />
</ui:insert>
</div>
</div>
</h:body>
</html>
Trying to inherit this template into my page (testpage.xhtml)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"
xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets"
>
<h:body>
<ui:composition template="/layout/base.xhtml">
<ui:define name="content">
Default Page content!!!!
<h:outputText value="Foo bar" style="green"/>
</ui:define>
</ui:composition>
</h:body>
</html>
The test.css file is available under the folder webcontent/resources/style and the content of the css file is as follows
.green{
color:#0000FF;
}
Now the problem is when I try to run the testpage the stylesheet is adding into the page (with view source able to identify) but it is not reflecting in the UI.
Is anything wrong in the above code? Any help on this appreciated.
You should use styleClass attribute (equivalent to the class attribute of plain HTML)
Replace
<h:outputText value="Foo bar" style="green"/>
With
<h:outputText value="Foo bar" styleClass="green"/>

JSF2 built in ajax support error : f:ajax not found

Tried Mojarra - 2.0.8, 2.1.6 , MyFaces 2.0.11,2.1.5
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="w3.org/1999/xhtml" xmlns:f="java.sun.com/jsf/core" xmlns:h="java.sun.com/jsf/html" xmlns:ui="java.sun.com/jsf/facelets">
<body>
<h:form>
<h:inputText id="name" value="#{helloBean.name}"></h:inputText>
<h:commandButton value="Welcome Me">
<f:ajax execute="name" render="output" />
</h:commandButton>
<h2><h:outputText id="output" value="#{helloBean.sayWelcome}"/></h2>
</h:form>
</body>
</html>
The XML namespaces are invalid. You've removed the http:// prefix from them all. This is not right.
Here's a rewrite:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en"
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"
xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"
xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets">
<h:head>
<title>Page title</title>
</h:head>
<h:body>
<h:form>
<h:inputText id="name" value="#{helloBean.name}"></h:inputText>
<h:commandButton value="Welcome Me">
<f:ajax execute="name" render="output" />
</h:commandButton>
<h2><h:outputText id="output" value="#{helloBean.sayWelcome}"/></h2>
</h:form>
</h:body>
</html>
Note that you also forgot the <h:head> component. This generates a HTML <head> element which allows JSF to auto-include the necessary JS and CSS files. In case of <f:ajax>, the JSF-supplied jsf.js file needs to be (auto)included, otherwise you will face a JS error after the page is been loaded.
