Robospice Impossible to start SpiceManager as no service of class

I am trying to use following libraries to develop my app.

To do so, In my gradle file I have following dependencies added

compile 'com.octo.android.robospice:robospice-spring-android:1.4.13'
compile 'com.google.code.gson:gson:2.2.4'

And in manifest file, I have following lines inserted inside application tag.

<service
    android:name="com.octo.android.robospice.GsonSpringAndroidSpiceService"
    android:exported="false" />

Now, I created a base class that is used as Base Activity. And, I have did this in the following way:

public class BaseSpiceActivity extends Activity {
    private SpiceManager spiceManager = new SpiceManager(GsonSpringAndroidSpiceService.class);

    @Override
    protected void onStart() {
        spiceManager.start(this);
        super.onStart();
    }

    @Override
    protected void onStop() {
        spiceManager.shouldStop();
        super.onStop();
    }

    protected SpiceManager getSpiceManager() {
        return spiceManager;
    }  
}

And then I used that base class to extend my own class where I had to use spice service request.

SimpleTextRequest text = new SimpleTextRequest(placeUrl);   
getSpiceManager().execute(text, "place", DurationInMillis.ONE_MINUTE, new RequestListener<String>() { 

    //Other functions and codes

    }
)

But when the above code gets executed, I am getting following error

 E/AndroidRuntime﹕ FATAL EXCEPTION: SpiceManagerThread 0
java.lang.RuntimeException: Impossible to start SpiceManager as no service of class : com.octo.android.robospice.SpiceService is registered in AndroidManifest.xml file !
        at com.octo.android.robospice.SpiceManager.checkServiceIsProperlyDeclaredInAndroidManifest(SpiceManager.java:1287)
        at com.octo.android.robospice.SpiceManager.tryToStartService(SpiceManager.java:1168)
        at com.octo.android.robospice.SpiceManager.run(SpiceManager.java:247)
        at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:856)

I have been trying to solve the issue from many hours. But unfortunately couldn't. Please help me out.

Try to find out where using SpiceManager. In my case, I named a activity SpiceActivity, and others extend it. But robospice library also offer a activity named SpiceActivity. And it uses new SpiceManager(SpiceService.class)

So activity extends the wrong SpiceActivity which use SpiceService, then cause the error.

You need to declare your service in your manifest.xml Like this

<service android:name=".SampleRetrofitService"
        android:exported="false"/>

I am 100% sure you got messed somewhere. Search for new SpiceManager(SpiceService.class); in your code, and you will find out that you do use this service instead of the desired GsonSpringAndroidSpiceService.
