Scope Session in Spring Framework

[Ateet Awasthi]

Hi All,

I am using spring 2.0 and in my application i wanted to test the scope of session for the same. For that I have given scope="session" in applicationcontext.xml but while running the app I am getting error.

aused by: org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationExce ption: Error creating bean with name 'HibernateBean': 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? 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.

The exception message is quite clear, you need to register the RequestContextListener in your web.xml file:

<listener>
	<listener-class>org.springframework.web.context.request.RequestContextListener</listener-class>
</listener>

Cheers,

Hello spiff,

Thanks but I have already defined RequestContextListener in web.xml. The application is portal application that is running on JBossPortal Application Server. If you have any other solution please let me know.

Thanks
