GWT - Getting UmbrellaException only in the Edge browser

I am currently working on a project with GWT and im still kinda new to it. I was testing my code when i noticed that only in the Edge browser the display was not correct. When looking in the logs i saw a lot of these errors:

com.google.gwt.event.shared.UmbrellaException: Exception caught: For input string: "176px"

So I googled a bit and noticed this post: What does <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge"> do?

So i tried to add that to my code but that doesnt fix my problem. I am still getting the umbrellaExceptions and the UI is still displayed incorrectly in Edge.

Part of my html file:

<!doctype html>

<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">


<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet/less" href="xxxxx.less"/>
<!--[if IE 9]>
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet/less" href="ie9.less">
<![endif]-->


<title>xxx</title>

<!-- Translations -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="translations/languages.js"></script>

<script type="text/javascript" src="js/less-1.7.5.min.js"></script>

<script type="text/javascript" src="xxxWebApp/xxxWebApp.nocache.js">
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery/jquery-ui.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/application.js"></script>
</head>

so i tried adding <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge"> under the other meta tag. But that doesnt seem to work. I believe i dont added that tag correctly. But i tried different variants like: 

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8; IE=edge">

But still no result. Could somebody how to add that tag correctly or what could cause that UmbrelllaException only in the Edge browser.

UPDATE: Here is an example of a full stacktrace:

Ok, I dont really know what caused the problem, but updating GWT from version 2.8.0 to 2.8.1 solved to problem.

Hope i save some troubles for somone else with this awnser.

I can't comment on why the error is ONLY on Edge; my impression is that you should be getting it everywhere (or perhaps Edge is less lenient on what seems to be bad input).

However, regarding the error itself:

  • Looks like it is caused by the fact that you specify a value in the form "176px" when it should be just "176"; This value can be a width of an element, or a height of an element, or something else; you might get lucky and a simple text search in your project might point to the right place (search by the value "176")
  • If the above doesn't work, then you need a better view of the problem; start your dev mode with -style PRETTY, and (perhaps recursively) print somewhere the stacktrace of the UmbrellaException, and the stack trace of its causes (perhaps using the suggestions from here), using the causes returned by UmbrellaException#getCauses.
