I found the problem I think....It appears my calling the DataContext dataContext = DataContext.createDataContext(); at application startup was causing problems?
I am not sure why I cannot initialize the context at startup unless the WebApplicationContextFilter has not finished initializing by then. When I took the call out of the startup listener class it was find. Not sure how to get the WebApplicationContextFilter to startup ahead of this....
