简单的JPA到Postgresql 9.1 HibernateEx

Question

Seems like a simple enough thing. I've used Hibernate sequences to MySQL and Oracle in the past but now using JPA2/Hibernate4 to Postgresql 9.1 and keep getting exceptions. Any ideas? I've tried different flavors of GenerationType.SEQUENCE and GenerationType.AUTO but nothing works. I definitely need help.

[1] Postgresql 9.1 DDL

    -- removed  CACHE 100
create sequence my_seq INCREMENT 1 MINVALUE 1 MAXVALUE 2147483647 START 1;
create table my_table (
  id              integer NOT NULL DEFAULT nextval('my_seq'),
  ident           text NOT NULL CONSTRAINT ident_uniq UNIQUE,
  cname           text NOT NULL,
  created         timestamp WITH TIME ZONE NOT NULL DEFAULT ('now'::text)::timestamp(6) with time zone,
  lastmodified    timestamp WITH TIME ZONE NOT NULL DEFAULT ('now'::text)::timestamp(6) with time zone,

  CONSTRAINT my_table_pkey PRIMARY KEY(id)
);


insert into my_table (ident, cname) values ('test001', 'Test 001');

        List<MyTable> list = em.createQuery("from my_table", MyTable.class).getResultList();
        int size = ( (list == null) || (list.size() <= 0) ) ? 0 : list.size();

        if (size == 0) {
            System.out.println("Didn't find any MY_TABLE records");
        } else {
            System.out.println("Found [" + size + "] MY_TABLE records");
        }

        em.close();
        emf.close();
    }
}

[3] Exception

javax.persistence.PersistenceException: [PersistenceUnit: MyPersistenceUnit] Unable to build EntityManagerFactory
Caused by: org.hibernate.HibernateException: Wrong column type in public.my_table for column id. Found: serial, expected: int8

Answer 1

Change

@GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY, generator = "foo")

to

@GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.SEQUENCE, generator = "foo")

else it won't use a sequence strategy, but an identity strategy.

And try to remove the default value of the PK column, and to define the column as bigint, since int is only 4 bytes and Java longs have 8 bytes.
