Required 'bundleContext' property was not set.

I am also encountering the above error message when running a webapp that uses an <osgi:reference/> element.

First here is the stack trace:

I have configured the "contextClass" parameter in web.xml to the value "com.springsource.server.web.dm.ServerOsgiBundleXm lWebApplicationContext". By debugging I noticed that the BundleContextAwareProcessor processes one instance of the OsgiServiceProxyFactoryBean and sets its bundle context, however multiple instances of OsgiServiceProxyFactoryBean are being created (all with the same bean name) and only one is processed by BundleContextAwareProcessor. One of the other instances is used when the application is executed from the browser.
