That would be my guess ... Can you double check that you do not have a cyclic graph?
The AshwoodEntitySorter sometimes gets wrapped around the axle and doesn't throw an exception when it should. When you have to-many (or to-dependent PK) relationships, the owning object must be inserted first. A (id) ->> B (id, a_fk) In this scenario, A must be inserted first to get the PK to push into the FK in B. Pretty easy to see/undersand in this case. However, if you have: A ->> B ->> C ->> D ->> A There is no correct way to insert that graph with auto-generated keys. mrg On Mon, Mar 5, 2012 at 11:41 AM, cghersi <cristiano.ghe...@abodata.com> wrote: > This table is involved in a lot of relationships: is this a possible cause > of failures?
