Strange error with selectItems

[Don Tam]

Hi,

I keep getting the error:
javax.faces.FacesException: Value is no String and component 
_id10:display_0:_id22 does not have a Converter

And this is bizarre, because I have a List of SelectItems, which is 
nearly identical to another list that works fine elsewhere - Integer 
value and String label (using new SelectItem(obj.getId(), 
obj.getName()). As you can see in my JSP, I even produced another table 
to make sure that no values or labels are crazy or null. Could someone 
please help me?

JSP snippet:
<h:form styleClass="crudForm">
 <h:commandButton styleClass="crudButton"
    value="#{bundle.save_changes}"
    action="#{ManageInterviewersBean.saveChanges}"/>

   <t:dataTable id="display"
           styleClass="table-background"
           headerClass="table-header"
           footerClass=""
           rowClasses="row-odd,row-even"
           var="item"
           value="#{ManageInterviewersBean.interviewers.list}"
           preserveDataModel="true"
           sortColumn="#{ManageInterviewersBean.interviewers.sort}"
           sortAscending="#{ManageInterviewersBean.interviewers.ascending}"
           preserveSort="true">
   <h:column>
       <f:facet name="header">
           <h:outputText value="#{bundle.supervisor}" />
       </f:facet>

       <h:selectOneMenu value="#{item.reportsTo.id}">
         <%-- this next line causes the error! If commented out, the 
next dataTable will work --%>
           <f:selectItems 
value="#{ManageInterviewersBean.supervisors.selectList}"/>
           <%--<f:selectItem itemValue="1" itemLabel="Your Mom"/>--%>
       </h:selectOneMenu>

   </h:column>
</t:dataTable>

<t:dataTable
           var="item"
           value="#{ManageInterviewersBean.supervisors.selectList}">
   <h:column rendered="#{ManageInterviewersBean.debug}">
       <f:facet name="header">           
           <h:outputText value="#{bundle.id}" />           
       </f:facet>
       <h:outputText value="#{item.value}"/>
   </h:column>

   <h:column>
       <f:facet name="header">           
               <h:outputText value="#{bundle.name}" />           
       </f:facet>
       <h:outputText value="#{item.label}"/>
   </h:column>
</t:dataTable>

Thanks,
