Solution Unverified - Updated -

Issue

I use PrimeFaces with my JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (EAP), I found after the user sessions expired / timed out, NullPointerException will happen.
The stacktrace looks like:

00:35:14,943 ERROR [org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase.[jboss.web].[default-host].[/sample].[Faces Servlet]] (ajp-/192.168.0.1:30002-8) Servlet.service() for servlet Faces Servlet threw exception: java.lang.NullPointerException
