Hi all, I am sorry if this subject has already been addressed somewhere else in the forum.

Our customer app accesses via Spring remoting HttpInvoker a service and everything works pretty well, but there is a problem: when the server part throws a business exception the client just receives a RemoteAccessException with no trace about the original error sent by the server. This business exception (CustomerException) is a runtime exception so it is not declared in the method signature definition in the service interface.

The root cause stacktrace received by the client is the following:
