This always happens when the MenuContributions defined at the end of the contextViewMenuFragment.e4xmi should be rendered. The item does not contain any command though one has been associated in the model and this one is also defined there.

So it seems that when the model is loaded the commands are not properly associated the the defined MenuContributions.
