Hello Kevin/Albert, Thanks for suggestions. I added initial-value attribute to the sequence generator mapping in the test program attached earlier, but the same exception is thrown.
The new sequence generator mapping is as follows, <id name="id"> <column name="Id"/> <generated-value strategy="SEQUENCE" generator="PART_SEQ"/> <sequence-generator name="PART_SEQ" sequence-name= "PART_SEQ" allocation-size="1" initial-value="100"/> </id> The initial-value 100 specified in the mapping is not present in the database. I am not sure if I understand this issue well, but it seems OpenJPA is checking for duplicate id before actually reading a value from the given sequence and populating it in the object to be persisted. When the duplicate check is done, the id field has default value "0", the database already has a row with id=0, so the duplicate check fails. When there is no row in the database with id=0 the duplicate check succeeds, after that, the sequence is used to populate the correct id value before persisting the record. By removing the database row with id=0, a row was successfully added in the database of this example as well as in my application. But since we have business logic around rows with id=0, we wish to avoid changing the business logic and keep it as a last option.

But, if you leave this initial PART record with an id of 0, then you get the duplicate key exception? If that's the case and this PART with an id of 0 has to be part of the dataset, then why not just start the id generation with a larger number? (That's what Albert's suggestion was, but he only replied to the dev list. BTW, if you post to multiple lists, then you need to monitor multiple lists. It's just part of the game. Thanks.)

The mapping for com.ibm.wdp.bss.party.entity.PartyObject is defined in party.orm.xml. This contains a mapping <version name="version"/> for version field used for optimistic locking. Also, I have manually corrected the party.orm.xml to add correct mapping for <id field. The mapping for Id field defines a sequence generator with allocation-size=1 as defined below <id name="id"> <column name="Id"/> <generated-value strategy="SEQUENCE" generator="PART_SEQ"/> <sequence-generator name="PART_SEQ" sequence-name= "PART_SEQ" allocation-size="1"/> </id> [attachment "BSS-JPA.zip" deleted by Krishnaprasad Subbarao/India/IBM] The attached sample contains a working sample to reproduce the error. The test database contains a row with id 0 in the table PART. The execution of JPAAddEntityTest.java fails with the error given in the first mail below. The moment I remove the row with id 0 manually from table PART and re-execute the JPAAddEntityTest.java. Records successfully get inserted in to PART table and ADDRESS table with appropriate next values from the sequences. I have following assumptions and questions about this issue. 1. Defining version in the .orm.xml file will not make any difference as compared to the @version annotation specified in the Bean 2. Can we configure OpenJPA to use a different default value for Identity fields say -1 instead of the Java default value 0. A new object to be persisted in the database will have id attribute set to -1 instead of 0? 3. Can we configure OpenJPA to ignore the database row with Primary Key 0?
