Error when setting IDENTITY_INSERT on sql server table

Question

As I had mentioned in this post JPA SET IDENTITY_INSERT not working that I was successful in using the

SET IDENTITY_INSERT

query for my purposes. But today after I have managed to configure connection pooling i am getting this type of error.

java.sql.SQLException: IDENTITY_INSERT is already ON for table 'mydb.dbo.[table1]'. Cannot perform SET operation for table 'dbo.[table2]'.
2015-03-11 15:52:36,126 WARN  org.hibernate.util.JDBCExceptionReporter.logExceptions:233 - SQL Error: 544, SQLState: 23000
2015-03-11 15:52:36,127 ERROR org.hibernate.util.JDBCExceptionReporter.logExceptions:234 - Cannot insert explicit value for identity column in table '[table2]' when IDENTITY_INSERT is set to OFF.

org.hibernate.exception.ConstraintViolationException: Could not execute JDBC batch update
at     org.hibernate.exception.SQLStateConverter.convert(SQLStateConverter.java:96)

Can anyone suggest something to resolve this error?

Answer 1

Using Identity Insert is a symmetrical command, after turning it on, you must turn it off. For example.

Set Identity_Insert ErrorLog On

Insert  Into ErrorLog
        ( LineNumber, ErrorMessage )
Values  ( 0, 'Test 1' ) ,
        ( 1, 'Test 2' )

Set Identity_Insert ErrorLog Off

Hope that helps.
