ConfigException still not quite serialisable?

As requested in #42 here

This is the exception that I'm seeing.

A test that reproduces this in Scala (sorry don't know enough Java):

import org.scalatest.{ Matchers, FunSpec }
import play.api.Configuration

class ConfigProblemSpec extends FunSpec with Matchers {

  def doWithConfig(config: Configuration): Unit = {
    config.getStringList("item")
  }

  describe("#boom") {

    it("will blow") {
      val config = Configuration.from(
        Map(
          "item" -> "uhoh, it's gonna blow"
        )
      )
      doWithConfig(config)
    }
  }

}

I tried to break this but it isn't breaking: a724038

Any idea how to modify that test so it fails?

@havocp actually upon further investigation, I've found that this is not a problem with Typesafe Config, but a problem with Play. Closing now :) Thanks for your help !

@havocp I am facing exactly same issue with spark and Config. All the details are here:

Can you please share your resolution. I have a feeling its the same issue

it looks like playframework/playframework#4145 was the play fix from @lloydmeta
