Wicketを使っているときによくあるエラーとして次のようなものがある

WicketMessage: Unable to find component with id 'hello' in [Page class = HelloWorld, id = 0, version = 0]. This means that you declared wicket:id=hello in your markup, but that you either did not add the component to your page at all, or that the hierarchy does not match.
[markup = file:/***/***/NetBeansProjects/Test/build/web/WEB-INF/classes/HelloWorld.html

これはHTMLのwicket:idに対応するコンポーネントがJavaで追加されていないときに発生する。次のようにコンポーネントを作成したはいいが、追加をしてない場合などである

<html>
  <head>
    <title>Hello World!</title>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
  </head>
  <body>
    <span wicket:id="hello">Hello World!</span>
 </body>
</html>
import org.apache.wicket.markup.html.WebPage;
import org.apache.wicket.markup.html.basic.Label;

public class HelloWorld extends WebPage{
    public HelloWorld(){
        Label label = new Label("hello", "Hello World!");
    }
}

逆にHTMLにwicket:idがないのにコンポーネントを追加した場合は下記のように例外が発生する

WicketMessage: The component(s) below failed to render. A common problem is that you have added a component in code but forgot to reference it in the markup (thus the component will never be rendered).

1. [Component id = hello, page = HelloWorld, path = 6:hello.Label, isVisible = true, isVersioned = true]

Root cause:

org.apache.wicket.WicketRuntimeException: The component(s) below failed to render. A common problem is that you have added a component in code but forgot to reference it in the markup (thus the component will never be rendered).

1. [Component id = hello, page = HelloWorld, path = 6:hello.Label, isVisible = true, isVersioned = true]
