It can't be a data issue. The records are persisted via hibernate and work consistently as expected in pages. Like I said, I query the same table to which the abstract class is mapped in my index page with no problem at all. I also said that it works in the dispatcher for the first entity I query, but any subsequent query to a _different_ entity throws that exception. The query is also just a read (select). Any other ideas?
