This problem occurs in scenarios similar to the following:
- User A creates the Questionnaire-based Assessment and sends it to assessors.
- User B opens the assessment enters the scores.
- User B submits the assessment for validation.
- User A opens the assessment for validation.
- At the same time, user B opens the assessment again, updates it, and saves it.
- User A rejects the assessment and receives the http 500 ValidationState exception on her display, along with the error above that appears in the log.
In this scenario, the assessment is actually rejected and is returned to user B.
