Target Unreachable, identifier resolved to null JSF 2.2
I looked already those:
Target Unreachable, identifier resolved to null in JSF 2.2
"Target Unreachable, identifier 'authenticator' resolved to null" in SEAM
Java EE 6: Target Unreachable, identifier 'helloBean' resolved to null
Target Unreachable, identifier "Bean Name" resolved to null
Target Unreachable, identifier "Bean Name" resolved to null
http://www.coderanch.com/t/598907/JSF/java/Target-unreachable-identifier-resolved-null
but none of them worked for me.

public String getPassword() {

}
I did not config those web.xml, because jsf2.2 does itself as i know.

And this warning:

But there 2 strings to with same get and set but no warnings for them.
I use tomcat 7.0.54.
Answer
There's quite a bit wrong with your current code:
You're not using JSF-standard tags. Use:
<h:head/>instead of<head>(this is required for most ajax functionality in jsf. Without it, the necessary javascript to support ajax cannot be included on the page<h:body>instead of<body>
An HTTP-500 is indicative of an actual bug in your code.
