using c:forEach with spring/hibernate lazy loading

[Dave Brown]

Hi all,

Hoping someone can point out the error of my ways..

My very basic scenario is this..
1. Show login page
2. User(Agency) logs in
3. I set the Agency object in the session and forward to a menu page...
4. User clicks a link.
5. I show a jsp with a forEach tag which displays elements from a List collection belonging to the Agency object in the session.

at point 5 however I get a Hibernate LazyInitializationException (no session or closed session)

I have spring setup, with an openSessionInView filter.. which when I changed log4j to display Debug info showed me it is definately opening a session prior to processing the jsp page. Here is a snippet from server output..

18:07:16,546 DEBUG OpenSessionInViewFilter:219 - Using SessionFactory 'sessionFactory' for OpenSessionInViewFilter
18:07:16,546 DEBUG OpenSessionInViewFilter:157 - Opening single Hibernate Session in OpenSessionInViewFilter
18:07:16,578 ERROR LazyInitializationException:19 - failed to lazily initialize a collection of role: net.dbws.rea.beans.Agency.sellers, no session or session was closed

as you can see the collection i'm trying to go over is sellers.. which belongs to my Agency object...

I've been scanning google and going over what I found for most the afternoon so any help pointers are greatly appreciated.

Thanks

That's a Hibernat issue, not a JSP one. Moved to the ORM forum.
