Got the same problem than you and I fix it just right now : If your error don't show up if you don't send your call, it's because the call to the server don't work.

I had the same problem, I eventually fixed it by deleting the contents of WEB-INF\classes as it was caching up some old stuff in there.

Obviously also try clearing down C:\Users...\AppData\Local\Temp as that is a common GWT problem..
