I get Illegal State Exception : No application context active. I have added two lines in GWTRemoteService | ServletLifecycle.beginRequest(request); | (...) //do stuff | ServletLifecycle.beginRequest(request); | And now it works. Maybe I am wrong but I think that without these 2 lines this simply cant work, so how it is possible that no one noticed this before ? Maybe in some special circumstances it works fine ?
