WARNING: Setting non-serializable attribute value into ViewMap, followed by java.io.NotSerializableException

I have the same application in 2 systems(laptops) but it's working in one but not in another.I get the following error in another system. I have also posted the code below. What I want to do is cascading dropdown with a button that calls a method of a different managed bean, and a placeOrder button to add a record in database, but I get the following error at the time of page loading:

WARNING: Setting non-serializable attribute value into ViewMap: (key: stockOrderBean, value class: beans.stockOrderBean)
    SEVERE: Error Rendering View[/ClientTemplate/stockTrade.xhtml]
    java.io.NotSerializableException: beans.stockOrderBean
    
    WARNING: JSF1087: Unable to generate Facelets error page as the response has already been committed.
    SEVERE: javax.faces.FacesException: beans.stockOrderBean

xhtmlcode:

            <h:form id="frmdialog">                        
                <table>
                            <tr>
                            <td>
                                Ask :
                            </td>
                            <td>                                        
                                <b><h:outputText value="#{stockOrderBean.equity.ask}"/></b>
                            </td>
                                  
                    </table>
               </h:form>
       </p:dialog>

sockOrderBean code:

    @javax.faces.bean.ManagedBean
@javax.faces.bean.ViewScoped
public class stockOrderBean{

    @WebServiceRef(wsdlLocation = "WEB-INF/wsdl/localhost_8080/StatelessWebService/StatelessWebService.wsdl")
    private StatelessWebService_Service service;
//properties with getter setter
 @ManagedProperty(value="#{equtiyBean}")
    private equityBean equity = new equityBean();
public void placeOrder(...){
//method not called
}

The same code is working in one system but not on another. What could be the reason and how do I solve it?

Some server configurations need to save HTTP sessions on harddisk or need to transfer them over network to some central datastore, often with the goal to share the session between multiple servers in a cluster, or to minimize excessive memory usage. If you're using the same servers in both machines, then most probably the other machine has too few available memory which forces the server to save sessions on harddisk.

This in turn requires that all session attributes implement Serializable, so that the server could use ObjectOutputStream to convert Java objects to bytes which can then be saved on disk or transferred over network and ObjectInputStream to convert those bytes back to Java objects.

If an object which is stored in the HTTP session does not implement Serializable, then you will get a NotSerializableException with the full qualified class name in the message. You should then fix the class to implement Serializable.

public class StockOrderBean implements Serializable {
    // ...
}

In JSF, this applies to all view and session scoped managed beans. Request and application scoped beans don't need to implement Serializable. Note that all of the bean properties should also be Serializable. But you will get a clear enough NotSerializableException whenever one is encountered.

Try adding the code below to your web.xml. It will keep session objects on server side.

<context-param>
   <param-name>javax.faces.STATE_SAVING_METHOD</param-name>
   <param-value>server</param-value>
</context-param>

Anything which is added to session is Serialized. The error is telling you that your backing bean should probably be Serializable. No idea why it's intermittent though.
