SQL Server 2016 - Invalid object name 'hibernate_sequence' - sql-server

Question

I have an image backup that I restore to the MS SQL server 2016.
I have an entity that declares its id like that:
#Id
#GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.AUTO)
#XmlID
#XmlElement
#XmlJavaTypeAdapter(IntToStringXmlAdapter.class)
private Integer id;
when I save the entity I receive:
Hibernate: select next_val as id_val from hibernate_sequence with (updlock, rowlock) 2018-02-28 22:05:41.935
ERROR 18152 --- [nio-8080-exec-6] o.hibernate.id.enhanced.TableStructure : could not read a hi value com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerException: Invalid object name 'hibernate_sequence'.
......
2018-02-28 22:05:41.942 WARN 18152 --- [nio-8080-exec-6] o.h.engine.jdbc.spi.SqlExceptionHelper : SQL Error: 208, SQLState: S0002
2018-02-28 22:05:41.942 ERROR 18152 --- [nio-8080-exec-6] o.h.engine.jdbc.spi.SqlExceptionHelper : Invalid object name 'hibernate_sequence'.
I have created by hand the sequence to the SQL server and I make sure that it exist through the SSMS.
CREATE SEQUENCE hibernate_sequence
AS INTEGER
START WITH 1
INCREMENT BY 1
MINVALUE 1
MAXVALUE 99
NO CYCLE;
Despite of this I continue to the receive the previous error.
Any ideas what I am doing wrong?
Thank you in advance

Answer 1

Following points to check:
What dialect you are using?
What hibernate version you are using?
Version 5 changed the GenerationType.AUTO behavior
Set "hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto" to update and see what it creates in the database
Avoid GenerationType.AUTO. Set it explicit to GenerationType.IDENTITY or GenerationType.SEQUENCE depending on what you want or your DB supports.
Check if you have the latest SQL Server JDBC driver. I had issues with it migrating from hibertnate 4.3 to 5.0
In hibernate 5 set hibernate.id.new_generator_mappings to false

It seems you are upgrading SqlServer version. I faced it when i was upgrading SqlServer 2012 to SqlSever 2017.
Caused by : talk between driver (jtds or sqlserver ) and SqlServer 2017+ no more consider table "dbo.hibernate_sequence" as work-around. It needs specifically sequence with name hibernate_sequence.
solution : delete table named as dbo.hibernate_sequence and create sequence
Example :
USE [your_database_name]
GO
CREATE SEQUENCE [dbo].[hibernate_sequence]
AS [bigint]
START WITH 10000000
INCREMENT BY 1
MINVALUE -9223372036854775808
MAXVALUE 9223372036854775807
CACHE
GO

You really need to look at the documentation for this. The query you have here is totally wrong. And why are you trying to use query hints on a sequence?
The correct syntax would look this.
select next value FOR hibernate_sequence as next_val
Here is the documentation on this. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/t-sql/functions/next-value-for-transact-sql

I was also getting the same error in spring boot project.
In my case the error com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerException: Invalid object name 'sys.sequences' is showing because I was using sql server 2008 version which doesn't have sys.sequences object.
I switched to sql server 2017 and it is working fine.

Answer 5

I had this problem and in my case i had to change the dialect from SQLServerDialect to SQLServer2012Dialect. The first has no implementation for sequences.
