seam page parameters not working as expected.

Hi,

I am learning seam and following a book Seam In Action by Dan Allen.

This is an example from this book.

Seam 2.2.0.GA
JBoss 5.1.0.GA

Here the page parameter roundId is always null even after a round is serialized, it is never passed. Neither to Roud.xhtml nor to RoundEdit.xhtml after clicking save on RoundEdit.xhtml. The entity always stays unmanaged.

RoundEdit.page.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<page xmlns="http://jboss.com/products/seam/pages"
      xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
      xsi:schemaLocation="http://jboss.com/products/seam/pages http://jboss.com/products/seam/pages-2.2.xsd"
      login-required="true">

    <begin-conversation join="true" />
    <param name="roundId" value="#{roundHome.id}" converterId="javax.faces.Long"/> 
    <param name="teeSetId" value="#{teeSetHome.teeSetId}" />
    <param name="roundFrom" />
    <action execute="#{roundHome.wire}" />

    <navigation from-action="#{roundHome.persist}">
        <rule if-outcome="persisted">
           <end-conversation/>
           <redirect view-id="#{null != roundFrom ? roundFrom : '/Round.xhtml'}" />
        </rule>
    </navigation>
</page>
