I'm new to hibernate/struts so please forgive my ignorance.

I'm passing an identifier for one method of my Action which gets the relevant info and puts it into a form bean. I then alter the form bean object and then send the mapping, form, request and response objects onto my save method.

The object is the same as if I had posted a form directly to the save method, but I get the error 'Another object was associated with this id'.

I believe the problem is caused by the fact that my object has already been referenced, but other than that I am lost.

Any help would be very gratefully received.

Many thanks,

Nick

this is typically because you have 2 objects connected to the session with the same id, but are not == (not the same pointer in jvm)
i suggest you
post your code that talks to hibernate

Is there a way that I can view what is stored in the session? I'm using Eclipse in debug mode connected to resin.

Many thanks.

You can use session.evict() on the first object after you dont need it anymore

I've debugged my way through the code and found that you are right - there is already an object in the session with with same ID as the one i'm trying to add. The problem is that they should be the same object.

Is there anyway I can find out what the difference is betwen these two objects?

Many thanks,

Nick.
