Yes it is registered as managed bean, thanks for the hint, I assumed since it is in application scope that the JSF checks whether the bean already is in the context and refuses to generated anew, which was totally wrong.Hi Werner
check the faces-config.xml file and make sure the bean is not declared as a managed bean for jsf. That may be the reason why you have two instances. You will still be able to access the bean if it was registered though the ContextListener.
