[jboss-user] [JBoss Seam] - Question on SeamServletFilter and IllegalStateExceptions

[bsmithjj]

I am using SeamServletFilter to handle ajax requests in my app (*.ajax).  I have noticed that when I invoke a view using the *.seam extension (which is handled by SeamExceptionFilter and SeamRedirectFilter everything 'behaves' just  fine.   On the other hand, when I make same request to the server and switch to the *.ajax extension, the view renders correctly but the server displays an IllegalStateException (and stack trace):

Why is the exception being thrown?

Thanks
