Are you able to reproduce this in any fashion? It'd be interesting to figure out why OpenJPA was attempting to recreate the indexes.
There are a couple of ways to get around the error: - set the IgnoreErrors MappingTool flag to true. This will cause any errors during schema synchronization to be ignored; presumably, if anything fatal goes wrong, you'll get an error later on when OpenJPA attempts to send invalid SQL to the database. You can do this like so: openjpa.jdbc.SynchronizeMappings=buildSchema(IgnoreErrors=true) - tell OpenJPA not to build indexes: openjpa.jdbc.SynchronizeMappings=buildSchema(Indexes=false) I got these options from the documentation for the MappingTool, which is what OpenJPA invokes when synchronizing mappings.
