Hello

i am having a parent enity with the following relation with a child entity.
@OneToMany(mappedBy="studyTreatmentGrp", cascade={CascadeType.ALL}, fetch=FetchType.LAZY)

in the child entity the relationship is as follows
@ManyToOne(cascade={CascadeType.PERSIST,CascadeType.MERGE,Ca scadeType.REFRESH}) @JoinColumn(name="S_TREAT_GROUP_ID")

i am adding child entity to the existing collection using entity.getChildList().add(childEntity),
but some times the child entity is not getting persisted.

Ensure you are setting both sides of the bi-directional relationship. If you add the child to the collection, also set its parent. Normally you would define an addChild() method on the parent that sets the back reference instead of adding directly to the collection.
