We recently upgraded from GWT 2.4 to 2.5. Everything seemed to be working until I started working in dev mode again.
When I initially load my application everything runs fine, however when I try to click my browser refresh button the entire application is unable to make RPC calls. I get the following exception (or similar) when my application tries to make a GWT-RPC call after hitting the refresh button (regardless of whether changes were made or not)
NOTE: This only appears to be a problem on Firefox (version 16). Not Chrome.

Update: I am starting to think this could be a problem with the Intellij/GWT configuration. Intellij is responsible for passing in the classpath to dev mode as needed.
Update: I have confirmed that if I run dev mode from the command line reloading is not a problem. It is only when I run through Intellij Idea 11 or 12's GWT run configuration.
