Schema-validation: missing table [SEQUENCE_NAME] when using Hibernate Sequence Generator Strategy

Question

I have some problems with the hibernate id generation and a ms sql server.

I am using the GenerationType.SEQUENCE in my application to generate Ids with hibernate.

@Id
@SequenceGenerator(name = "SequenceGenerator", sequenceName = "SEQUENCE_NAME")
@GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.SEQUENCE, generator = "SequenceGenerator")
private Long id;

As DB I use a microsoft sql server 2017.

I create the sequence via Liquibase:

<createSequence incrementBy="50" sequenceName="SEQUENCE_NAME" startValue="100000"/>

While starting the Spring Boot Application I get the error:

Schema-validation: missing table [SEQUENCE_NAME]

When I manually query for the sequence it can be found:

SELECT COUNT(*) FROM sys.objects
WHERE object_id = OBJECT_ID(N'[dbo].[SEQUENCE_NAME]') AND type = 'SO'

I am a little bit confused that it says "missing table". With oracle it works fine. Does mssql not support id generation via sequences.

My Configuration:

spring:
  datasource:
    url: "jdbc:sqlserver://localhost:1433"
    username: sa
    password: ABc12345!
  jpa:
    properties:
      hibernate.dialect: org.hibernate.dialect.SQLServerDialect

I use this docker image: mcr.microsoft.com/mssql/server:2017-CU12-ubuntu

Answer 1

I used the wrong dialect in the configuration. The correct one is:

spring.jpa.properties.hibernate.dialect: org.hibernate.dialect.SQLServer2012Dialect

The other one is for older servers which doesn't support sequences.
