I had exactly the same problem in one of our apps, and was pretty awkward, one of my object was shared between all users, just like a static field. We spent as much as 2 days trying to find out where was the problem, and when we got nothing left to do, we took off the initial assignment and then the problem disappeared. This was a hint I found when I was searching the mailing list, but we had no clue if this was related to the problem. After this, we adapt our apps to initialize the variables at another time (SetupRender phase or when we are about to enter in a page).
I think this kind of error report is a good point, and I recommend you to take this off your pages before you have major problems. =) On Thu, Nov 20, 2008 at 3:17 PM, Howard Lewis Ship <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Tapestry has not way to determine if a value is mutable or immutable. > > What was happening is that people were assigning mutable values > (lists, maps, user-defined objects) as the initial value of a > persistent field.
