Session scope bean not availabel to other beans

[anyz]

I have searched a lot on forum and its very common issue. But somehow i 'm not able to resolve despite putting too much time. Prbably missing something silly. Please note that it is a Portlet application deployed on Jetspeed 2.

I have a session scope bean defined in spring context and injectd in other other spring beans. It gives error that:

Error creating bean with name 'myBusinessDelegate': Injection of autowired dependencies failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'scopedTarget.sessionUserInfo': 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.

My context file looks like:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
    xmlns:aop="http://www.springframework.org/schema/aop"
    xmlns:context="http://www.springframework.org/schema/context"

          <aop:scoped-proxy/>
    </bean>

    <context:component-scan base-package="com.root"/>

Delegate class is:

@Component
public class MyDelegate {
	
    private static final Logger logger=Logger.getLogger(MyDelegate.class);

	private SessionUserInfo sessionUserInfo;
	
	public MyDelegate(){
	}
	
	@Autowired
	public void setSessionUserInfo(SessionUserInfo sessionUserInfo) {
		this.sessionUserInfo = sessionUserInfo;
		System.out.println(sessionUserInfo.getUserName());
		
	}

I forgot to mention i'm in Portlet env on Jetspeed. So Jetspeed internally calls a Portlet URL from spring based portlet application.

Seems Spring is actually not intercepting the requests made by Jetspeed to display the Portlets from and Portlet application (War file). Context Listener/Filters are not intercepting requests. Probably there could be other work arround to achieve this in Spring.
