    "detached entity passed to persist" problem

    andreh

      Hi all,

      I'm new to seam, and I'm creating a project here

      I'm getting this Exception:

      Exception during INVOKE_APPLICATION(5): javax.persistence.PersistenceException: org.hibernate.PersistentObjectException: detached entity passed to persist: br.com.dehproject.UsuarioEntity


      I know that I could use em.merge() to skip this, but I want to create a new object, not to update the actual one. My UsuarioEntity has a SESSION Scope, so that's why I get this... but I need the SESSION scope to the next page in my JSF to manage the contents of the object...

      I have a page that register the users, and then redirect to another page where I manage the contents of the user using a Entity with a EVENT scope... But if I get back to the register page, I cannot persist another one and throw the Exception that I pasted above... =/ I want to create a new object to persist that has nothing to do with the other one...

      How can I turn back and persist another object? but I also need to continue with a SESSION Scope, or I wish to have some idea from you...

      Thanks!

          You will have to post some of your code at least. It also sounds like you are confused about the interaction of Seam and Hibernate.

            I'll try to explaim better !

            MyEntity:

            
            @Entity
            @Scope(SESSION)
            @Name(users)
            public class UserEntity implements Serializable {
            
             //variable and setters and getters
            
            }
            
            


            My Action Register:

            
            @Stateless
            @Scope(EVENT)
            @Name("register")
            public class RegisterAction implements Register {
            
             @In
             UserEntity userentity;
            
             @PersistenceContext
             EntityManager em;
            
             public String register(){
            
             //some if's and here
             em.persist(userentity);
            
             return "/anotherpage.seam";
             }
            }
            


            and in my jsf page
            <h:commandButton value="Register" action="#{register.register}" />
            



            So, I persist one Object, and It is Ok, but if I turn back and go to persist another one, I get that Exception above... I know that's because my UserEntity hava SESSION scope...

            Do I have to change the UserEntity Scope to Event? and modify somethings to make it work properly?
