Java Seam IllegalStateException

Question

Hi,

In my code I am reading a list from a serialized file. On the click of a button the following happens:

I update the database with the help of the data from the list object I then also navigate to the next screen

 java.lang.IllegalStateException: Attempted to invoke a Seam component outside an initialized application

So what is the cause of this error ? Is there a fix for the same ?
