We have recently put live a new version of an application using a build
of MyFaces core from 22nd May. Following the release I have been
consistently seeing in the logs the following exception:
javax.faces.FacesException: error while processing state :

There seems to be no pattern with the length of the state String. I have been
unable to reproduce the problem myself, which makes this very difficult to
solve. I wondered whether anyone else has come across this, or whether there
are any likely causes in the MyFaces code?
Thanks
