I have an entity that has a many to one mapping to another entity.

  • 0

I have an entity that has a many to one mapping to another entity.
Here is the mapping:

@JoinColumn(name = "user_id", referencedColumnName = "id")
 @ManyToOne 
private User user;

In the object (and table) user I used to have a field called authorityId. I removed that field from the table and the object.
Now, when I user find() on the object Hibernate generates a query including the old fields and not including new fields that I have added to the table (and mapped in the object).

Please note that this does not happen all the time, most of the time the query runs fine but every once and a while I get the exception MySQLSyntaxErrorException: Unknown column.

I cannot find a reason for this, any ideas?

the find I use is the find(Long id) of theJPA: entry = auditLogDAO.find(id);

The code of the User object:

@Entity
@Table(name = "users")
public class User implements Serializable{

    /**
     * 
     */
    private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;

    @Id
    @Column(name="id",unique=true, nullable=false )
    @GeneratedValue( strategy = IDENTITY )
    private Long id;

    @Column(name ="username",unique=true, nullable=false)
    @Field(index = Index.TOKENIZED, store = Store.NO)
    private String username;

    @Column
    private String password;

    @Column
    private int enabled;

    @OneToOne
    @JoinColumn(name = "current_account", referencedColumnName = "id")
    private Account currentAccount;

    @OneToOne
    @JoinColumn(name = "original_account", referencedColumnName = "id")
    private Account originalAccount;

    @OneToMany
    @JoinColumn(name = "user_id", referencedColumnName = "id")
    private List<Authority> authorities;

    @Column(name="first_name")
    @Field(index = Index.TOKENIZED, store = Store.NO)
    private String firstName;

    @Column(name="last_name")
    @Field(index = Index.TOKENIZED, store = Store.NO)
    private String lastName;

    @Column(name="email",unique=true, nullable=false )
    @Field(index = Index.TOKENIZED, store = Store.NO)
    private String email;

    @Column(name="switch_allowed")
    private Boolean switchAllowed;

    @Lob
    @Column(name = "additional_emails")
    private String additionalEmails;

The Authority table:

@Entity
@Table(name = "authorities")
public class Authority implements Serializable{

    /**
     * 
     */
    private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;

    @Id
    @Column(name = "id")
    @GeneratedValue( strategy = IDENTITY )
    private Long id;

    @Column(name = "user_id")
    private Long userId;

    @Column(name = "authority")
    private String authority;

Full stack trace (if you can see, in the query generated by hibernate there is user6_.authority_id, a column that does not exist anymore in the mapping):

    I suspect you still have your Authority (authorities table) mapped which has a relationship with your User. This will most likely map to authority_id causing your problem. Either fix the Authority mapping or remove it completely. If this is not the case you will have a classloading problem loading an older version of your model.
