Maven and the " is not a known entity type" error

Question

Hi everybody,

I generated a maven project with the quickstart archetype. So I obtained the following project structure:

|-- src
| |-- main
| | |-- java      
| | |-- resources 
| |-- test
| | |-- java      
| | |-- resources 
|-- pom.xml       

I modified the "pom.xml" file :

<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
  xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd"&gt;

        <scope>test</scope>
    </dependency>
  </dependencies>
</project>

As you noticed, I work with derby. The "src/main/resources/META-INF/persistence.xml" is:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<persistence xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence" version="1.0">

    <persistence-unit name="chapter02PU" transaction-type="RESOURCE_LOCAL">
        <provider>org.eclipse.persistence.jpa.PersistenceProvider</provider>
        <class>com.apress.javaee6.chapter02.Book</class>
        <properties>
            <property name="eclipselink.target-database" value="DERBY"/>
            <property name="eclipselink.ddl-generation" value="drop-and-create-tables"/>
            <property name="eclipselink.logging.level" value="INFO"/>
            <property name="javax.persistence.jdbc.driver" value="org.apache.derby.jdbc.ClientDriver"/>
            <property name="javax.persistence.jdbc.url" value="jdbc:derby://localhost:1527/chapter02DB;create=true"/>
            <property name="javax.persistence.jdbc.user" value="APP"/>
            <property name="javax.persistence.jdbc.password" value="APP"/>
        </properties>
    </persistence-unit>
</persistence>        

Then, I created a "Book" Class:

package com.apress.javaee6;
import javax.persistence.*;

@Entity
@NamedQuery(name = "findAllBooks", query = "SELECT b FROM Book b")
public class Book {

    // ======================================
    // =             Attributes             =
    // ======================================
    @Id
    @GeneratedValue
    private Long id;
    @Column(nullable = false)
    private String title;
    private Float price;
    @Column(length = 2000)
    private String description;
    private String isbn;
    private Integer nbOfPage;
    private Boolean illustrations;

    // ======================================
    // =            Constructors            =
    // ======================================

    public Book() {
    }

    public Book(String title, Float price, String description, String isbn, Integer nbOfPage, Boolean illustrations) {
        this.title = title;
        this.price = price;
        this.description = description;
        this.isbn = isbn;
        this.nbOfPage = nbOfPage;
        this.illustrations = illustrations;
    }

    // ======================================
    // =          Getters & Setters         =
    // ======================================
    public Long getId() {
        return id;
    }




    public String getTitle() {
        return title;
    }

    public void setTitle(String title) {
        this.title = title;
    }

    public Float getPrice() {
        return price;
    }

    public void setPrice(Float price) {
        this.price = price;
    }

    public String getDescription() {
        return description;
    }

    public void setDescription(String description) {
        this.description = description;
    }

    public String getIsbn() {
        return isbn;
    }

    public void setIsbn(String isbn) {
        this.isbn = isbn;
    }

    public Integer getNbOfPage() {
        return nbOfPage;
    }

    public void setNbOfPage(Integer nbOfPage) {
        this.nbOfPage = nbOfPage;
    }

    public Boolean getIllustrations() {
        return illustrations;
    }

    public void setIllustrations(Boolean illustrations) {
        this.illustrations = illustrations;
    }

    // ======================================
    // =         hash, equals, toString     =
    // ======================================

    @Override
    public String toString() {
        final StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
        sb.append("Book");
        sb.append("{id=").append(id);
        sb.append(", title='").append(title).append('\'');
        sb.append(", price=").append(price);
        sb.append(", description='").append(description).append('\'');
        sb.append(", isbn='").append(isbn).append('\'');
        sb.append(", nbOfPage=").append(nbOfPage);
        sb.append(", illustrations=").append(illustrations);
        sb.append('}');
        return sb.toString();
    }
}

And, of course, the "Main class":

package com.apress.javaee6;

import javax.persistence.EntityManager;
import javax.persistence.EntityManagerFactory;
import javax.persistence.EntityTransaction;
import javax.persistence.Persistence;


public class Main {

    public static void main(String[] args) {

        // Creates an instance of book
        Book book = new Book();
        book.setId(1231L);
        book.setTitle("The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy");
        book.setPrice(12.5F);
        book.setDescription("Science fiction comedy series created by Douglas Adams.");
        book.setIsbn("1-84023-742-2");
        book.setNbOfPage(354);
        book.setIllustrations(false);

        // Gets an entity manager and a transaction
        EntityManagerFactory emf = Persistence.createEntityManagerFactory("chapter02PU");
        EntityManager em = emf.createEntityManager();
        EntityTransaction tx = em.getTransaction();

        // Persists the book to the database
        tx.begin();
        em.persist(book);
        tx.commit();

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

I start the Derby server:

./derby/bin/startNetworkServer

The problem is when I run the main class:

mvn exec:java -Dexec.mainClass="com.apress.javaee6.Main"

I get the following error:

[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[ERROR] BUILD ERROR
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] An exception occured while executing the Java class. null

Object: Book{id=null, title='The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy', price=12.5, description='Science fiction comedy series created by Douglas Adams.', isbn='1-84023-742-2', nbOfPage=354, illustrations=false} is not a known entity type.

I thought that the problem was the "id=null". But, when I set the Id manually (to 123 for example), I get the same error message. I also tried to use the following anotatations in the Book class:

@GeneratedValue(strategy=GenerationType.AUTO)

or

@GeneratedValue(strategy=GenerationType.IDENTITY)

Anybody has the solution to this error?

Thak you very much, Regards.

Answer 1

I haven't used EclipseLink myself, so all I can do is guess, but what surprises me is that your class doesn't have a setter for the id property.

I don't know if that's legal according to the JPA specification, but I have never encountered this before. In all JPA applications I know of, all non-transient properties have public getter and setter. (Of course some of them should never be used manually, like the id property, but the Persistence Provider needs them). So try adding a setId() method and we'll take it from there...

Answer 2

I had this kind of error a lot with Eclipselink. The only answer I have found is this one, an open bug :

bug link at eclipse.org

For short, this bug comes from EclipseLink + (osGI) conjoint use, when rebuilding your jar, a pointer to the "old" entity is kept instead of using the new one, hence the error that the entity is unknown. The solution for me was to restart IDE, clean, build, restart my server, install jar/war, run..

Don't know if it's your problem, but it might be...

Answer 3

I thought that the problem was the "id=null". But, when I set the Id manually (to 123 for example), I get the same error message.

No, and you're not supposed to set the Id when using GeneratedValue.

Anybody has the solution to this error?

The root cause of the problem is that the BOOK table doesn't get generated (so EclipseLink can't map the Book entity appropriately and then doesn't recognize it as an entity).

This happens because the fully qualified name of the class listed in your persistence.xml doesn't match the actual FQN (com.apress.javaee6.chapter02.Book vs com.apress.javaee6.Book).

So either change the package of the class or the fix the persistence.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<persistence xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence" version="1.0">

    <persistence-unit name="chapter02PU" transaction-type="RESOURCE_LOCAL">
        <provider>org.eclipse.persistence.jpa.PersistenceProvider</provider>
        <class>com.apress.javaee6.Book</class>
        <properties>
            <property name="eclipselink.target-database" value="DERBY"/>
            <property name="eclipselink.ddl-generation" value="drop-and-create-tables"/>
            <property name="eclipselink.logging.level" value="INFO"/>
            <property name="javax.persistence.jdbc.driver" value="org.apache.derby.jdbc.ClientDriver"/>
            <property name="javax.persistence.jdbc.url" value="jdbc:derby://localhost:1527/chapter02DB;create=true"/>
            <property name="javax.persistence.jdbc.user" value="APP"/>

And running your mvn exec:java -Dexec.mainClass="com.apress.javaee6.Main" will succeed:

 mvn exec:java -Dexec.mainClass="com.apress.javaee6.Main" -e
