TransientObjectException: object references an unsaved transient instance - save the transient instance before flushing: package.path.Contact
I have a persistence object "Affiliate" that has a child object "Contact".
This is shown in my contact object as
@OneToMany(fetch=FetchType.LAZY,cascade=CascadeType.ALL, mappedBy="contact") public java.util.List<Affiliate> getAffiliate() { return affiliate; }
em.persist(affiliate);
check the reference doc of Hibernate.
