Spring aop scoped-proxy not working on linux installation - linux

Question

I have a bean which is declared as session scoped. I had to enable aop in my configuration to use it in other beans (singletons by default).

<bean id="localeResolver" class="com.my.pack.MySessionLocaleResolver" scope="session">
<property name="defaultLocale" value="en" />
<aop:scoped-proxy/>
</bean>
While I am starting it from eclipse, on my Windows desktop computer, it works just well, as it is declared.
But, when I'm publishing it on a my test, linux environment, it somehow does ignores aop thing, and throws an error
exception in linux environment
11:09:24,928 ERROR {localhost-startStop-1} [org.springframework.web.servlet.FrameworkServlet:initServletBean] Context initialization failed
org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'scopedTarget.localeResolver': Scope 'session' is not active for the current thread; consider defining a scoped proxy for this bean if you intend to refer to it from a singleton; nested exception is java.lang.IllegalStateException: No thread-bound request found: Are you referring to request attributes outside of an actual web request, or processing a request outside of the originally receiving thread? If you are actually operating within a web request and still receive this message, your code is probably running outside of DispatcherServlet/DispatcherPortlet: In this case, use RequestContextListener or RequestContextFilter to expose the current request.
at org.springframework.beans.factory.support.AbstractBeanFactory.doGetBean(AbstractBeanFactory.java:343)
There are no additional errors in log files. Nor in a web-app log, nor in a catalina.out.
I'am using spring 3.2.4, on tomcat 7.0.42 and "CentOS release 6.5".

Answer 1

Read those error messages carefully, the always contain a reason why it fails.
In this case:
Scope 'session' is not active for the current thread
which means you don't have an active HTTP session when the bean is requested.
