Issue
I am building a RESTful Web Service that consumes and returns JSON. I am encountering the following stack trace when I try to fetch an ESRBRating object from the database through the service layer. However when I inject the Spring Data JPA repository directly to the controller and use that to fetch the ESRBRating by ID it works fine. However when calling through the service layer it does not work. I have provided the stack trace and code below. Can someone explain to me why this is happening when going through a service layer but not when going through the Spring Data JPA repository directly? How do I resolve this issue?

This controller code works fine, going through the repository directly.

UPDATE:
I followed Randall Harleigh advice and set the reverse collection with @JsonIgnore. However now I am getting an entirely different stack trace. It seems now Jackson / Spring doesn't know how to serialize ESRBRating. Any tips on this one?

Update 2:
I ended up putting @Proxy(lazy = false) on the ESRBRating class and now it works fine. However I'm curious what kind of performance impacts this could have?

Solution
This typically happens when you are returning an object via @Responsebody (or in your case response body by way of @RestController) and an object is being serialized but has children in a LAZY collection that have not been referenced. By the time you are in your controller there is no longer a transaction active that will facilitate them being fetched (like the one your started in your @Service). You can either make your fetch strategy EAGER, bring in your collections by reference while still in your transaction or make your LAZY collections JSON Transient.
