Ludovic has had the same exception reported today and was asking me if
I knew how to fix it. I couldn't find a solution in this thread.
What was the outcome and how did you solve it Ricardo?
We have been chatting about this in the #IRC channel on March the 7th. I
remember we have considered this issue at some moment, but it seems it
is not the same problem.
Here the explanation and the solutions posted by Sergiu:

When Ludovic got the same exception reported, I tried to reconstruct the
flow and find that we have not documented the solution. I keep asking
how is the best way of doing it.
