I am facing the famous “Cannot retrieve current AggregateLifecycle; none is yet defined” error.
I already checked all the possible errors: using an apply outside of the aggregate, creating myself an aggregate instead of letting the repository doing it etc… In theory everything has been correctly applied.
Yet I can see this error occurs only when an aggregate cache (a custom implementation of AbstractCacheAdapter using either a local map or Guava) has been set up. The weirdest thing is that when I use a Hazelcast map instead (by autowiring a Map), the same code is working.
I guess something is going wrong here. The resources map has only one key named org.axonframework.eventsourcing.CachingEventSourcingRepository@4fd63c43_AGGREGATES, not “ManagedAggregates”.
Let me shed some light on how this AggregateLifecycle works. Because apply is a static method, there is no way for Axon to find out who’s calling it (in a regular instance method, it would be the same issue). For that, and some other reasons, Axon wraps your Aggregate Root in a different class, which implements the Aggregate interface. These classes typically extend from AggregateLifecycle. When invoking an execute() or handle() method on this Aggregate, it registers itself with the lifecycle as “the current aggregate”. That’s what the thread local variable CURRENT (here) is for. That should reasonable never be null. However, if it is, there is a second chance, which is the ManagedAggregates resource in the Unit of Work.
Since apparently both CURRENT and the ManagedAggregates are null, I expect there is a call to the AggregateRoot somewhere that didn’t flow through an Aggregate instance. Can you share the stacktrace of the exception?

Just because I found it easier to manipulate directly my aggregate instead of doing each time an invoke or execute.
That was the problem actually. Removing this stupid statement and using only invoke or execute resolved the problem.
