I'm trying to make a bidirectional manytomany relationship work with Hibernate and Maven, but it always either throws org.hibernate.LazyInitializationException: could not initialize proxy - no Session or a Stackoverflowerror. I already tried @JSONIdentityInfo ,which resulted in Maven automatically adding a "PK" Variable which disrupted mainly my Frontend, @JSONManagedReference and @JSONBackreference, which caused the entity that received the Backreference to be ignored completly, @JSONIgnore, same issue with the Backreference, @JsonView, which changed seemingly nothing, and @JsonSerialize with a custom serializer, which when implemented also causes problems with the frontend. I also tried wirting the Query myself direclty into the Repository but it caused the same issue. I am really at the end of my abilties and dont know what else to do.

In the end the solution was to add @Transactional
to the controller. Hope this might help someone.
