IssueTracker

We have an app using Spring framework. Recently we have added some new features that are based on AOP. We decided to use @AspectJ style hence we added <aop:aspectj-autoproxy> into our XML based configuration and implemented respective aspects. Everything is working OK in development server, however, when deployed to the cloud environment we get java.lang.StackOverflowError every time the app is being initialized.

The bean that cannot be created and causes the error is configuration class annotated with @Configuration annotation. It seems that basically any configuration bean can cause the error.

We use Java 7 along with App Engine SDK 1.8.8.

Please find attached simple app demonstrating the issue. It runs OK in development server but fails in production.

To test, run [host]:[port]/greeting and you should see text "Hello".
