ERROR: Unknown column 'user0_.id' in 'field list'

Question

So, I have two tables which are in a one-to-many relationship and when I try to log in, I get an error about some user0_id field. Problem is that I only send the username and password when the error gets triggered, so I am not sure what's causing it. I've read similar posts about this problem and it seems to have something to do with the mapping between entities and table. So, here are my entities.

@Entity
@Table(name="user")
public class User {
    @Id
    @Column(name="id")
    @GeneratedValue
    private int id;
    @Column(name="email")
    private String email;
    @Column(name="username")
    private String username;
    @Column(name="password")
    private String password;
    @Column(name="authority")
    private String authority;
    @OneToMany(cascade={CascadeType.ALL})
    @JoinColumn(name="id")
    private List<Post> posts;

    ...

}

The other one:

@Entity
@Table(name="post")
public class Post {

    @Id
    @Column(name="id")
    @GeneratedValue
    private int id;
    @Column(name="title")
    private String title;
    @Column(name="content")
    private String content;

    @ManyToOne
    @JoinColumn(name="userId", insertable=false, updatable=false, nullable=false)
    private User user;

    ...
}

Can someone give me a pointer on what might be causing this? Because I don't see anything wrong and the names between the column and tables are the same.

Tables:

post
    1   id  int(11)         
    2   title   varchar(45)     
    3   content longtext    
    4   userId  int(11)         

user
    1   id  int(11)         
    2   email   varchar(45) 
    3   authority   varchar(45) 
    4   username    varchar(45) 
    5   password    varchar(45) 

Error:

Answer 1

I had similar problem though I don't think it would solve your problem. I had to rename the database column to the unknown column name. My error said something along the lines of "Unknown column 'category_id' in field list". The column name in the database was categoryId. When I change it to category_id everything work fine.

Answer 2

Your mapping is indeed incorrect.

@OneToMany(cascade={CascadeType.ALL})
@JoinColumn(name="id")
private List<Post> posts;

That makes no sense. You're saying that a post refers to user by using the post.id column. That can't be correct, since id if the primary key of post.

It'a also incorrect because you want a bidirectional OneToMany association, and the one-side must thus be the inverse side of the association.

Here's the correct mapping:

@OneToMany(mappedBy="user", cascade={CascadeType.ALL})
private List<Post> posts;

and in Post:

@ManyToOne
@JoinColumn(name="userId", nullable=false)
private User user;
