I've tried to setup GWT-comet using the official guide(http://code.google.com/p/gwt-comet/wiki/GettingStarted). What I did:
< inherits name='net.zschech.gwt.comet.Comet'/>
The crash is obviously related to the inheriting the module. Stack trace:
Loading modules
com.MyApp.Test
Loading inherited module 'com.MyApp.Test'
Loading inherited module 'net.zschech.gwt.comet.Comet'

Any idea why this occurs? Thanks in advance.
The gwt-comet-1.2.3.jar is not compatible with GWT 2.5.0-rc1 (or higher).
so you need to upgrade the gwt-comet version to 1.2.5.
