Catch duplicate entry Exception

How can i catch this Exception :

com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.MySQLIntegrityConstraintViolationException: 
                                      Duplicate entry '22-85' for key 'ID_CONTACT'

I use spring so we resolve it by org.springframework.dao.DataIntegrityViolationException

try {
    ao_history_repository.save(new AoHistory(..));
} catch (DataIntegrityViolationException e) {
    System.out.println("history already exist");
}

But as @KevinGuancheDarias mention it:

Please note that while this works. I suggest to solve the problem by issuing a findBy before the save, as this is messy, and I think it's not warranted that it will work in future versions, may even break without notification.

In my Spring project, the exception thrown was org.springframework.orm.jpa.JpaSystemException: org.hibernate.exception.ConstraintViolationException: could not execute statement; nested exception is javax.persistence.PersistenceException: org.hibernate.exception.ConstraintViolationException: could not execute statement.

So after debugging I had a parent JpaSystemException with a cause PersistenceException and that had a cause ConstraintViolationException, this last one had the Database specific exception, but I ended up catching ConstraintViolationException with

public static boolean isSqlDuplicatedKey(Exception e) {
        return e.getCause() != null && e.getCause().getCause() != null
                && ConstraintViolationException.class.isInstance(e.getCause().getCause());
}
// ....

try {
   someRepository.save(some);
} catch (JpaSystemException e) {
    if (ExceptionUtilService.isSqlDuplicatedKey(e)) {
        // Do something to handle it
    } else {
        throw e;
    }
}

Please note that while this works. I suggest to solve the problem by issuing a findBy before the save, as this is messy, and I think it's not warranted that it will work in future versions, may even break without notification.

vendorCode 2601 is for unique index constraint violate so you can check SQLException cewndorCode by e.getErrorCode() == 2601. sample code:

try {
    ao_history_repository.save(new AoHistory(..));
} catch (SQLException e) {
    if (e.getErrorCode() == 2601) {
        System.out.println("handle duplicate index error here!");
    } else {
        System.out.println("handle other error code here!");
    }
}

Loook at Spring framework source code Look at spring JDBC error resolve code.

org.springframework.jdbc.support.SQLErrorCodeSQLExceptionTranslator#doTranslate

else if (Arrays.binarySearch(this.sqlErrorCodes.getDuplicateKeyCodes(), errorCode) >= 0)

{ logTranslation(task, sql, sqlEx, false); return new DuplicateKeyException(buildMessage(task, sql, sqlEx), sqlEx); }

There are multiple ways how you can hit different Exception translators:

  • Spring load metadata/error codes from your db - one translator
  • Spring fails to connect to db - another one
  • Hibernate JPA may have different translator

So Dublicate behavior may change from DuplicateKeyException to DataIntegrityViolationException.

I agree, but we've something like this in my Spring Application,:- RequestValidationException/MessageConstants are custom one's:

import org.springframework.dao.DuplicateKeyException;
|
|
|
catch (Exception exception) {
if(exception instanceof DuplicateKeyException) {
 logger.error("exception as duplicate Name Found: " + exception.getMessage());
 throw new RequestValidationException(MessageConstants.DUPLICATE_NAME_FOUND_ERROR_CD, MessageConstants.DUPLICATE_NAME_FOUND_ERROR_MSG); 
 }else{
        logger.error("exception on update: " + exception.getMessage());
        throw exception;
    }
 }

A - Log the exception in detail

Here is what I use to log SQL Exceptions so that I can be sure of what to catch;

private static void handleSQLError(SQLException e) throws SQLException {
    log.info("SQL Error Type : " + e.getClass().getName());
    log.info("Error Message  : " + e.getMessage());
    log.info("Error Code     : " + e.getErrorCode());
    log.info("SQL State      : " + e.getSQLState());

    throw e;
}

Here is the sample Output;

2018 Nis 05 11:20:32,248 INFO MySQLUtil: SQL Error Type : com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.MySQLIntegrityConstraintViolationException
2018 Nis 05 11:20:32,248 INFO MySQLUtil: Error Message  : Duplicate entry 'test2 CAMT052' for key 'customer_file_customer_file_name_idxu'
2018 Nis 05 11:20:32,249 INFO MySQLUtil: Error Code     : 1062
2018 Nis 05 11:20:32,249 INFO MySQLUtil: SQL State      : 23000
com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.MySQLIntegrityConstraintViolationException: Duplicate entry 'test' for key 'customer_file_customer_file_name_idxu'
    at sun.reflect.NativeConstructorAccessorImpl.newInstance0(Native Method)
    at sun.reflect.NativeConstructorAccessorImpl.newInstance(NativeConstructorAccessorImpl.java:62)
    at sun.reflect.DelegatingConstructorAccessorImpl.newInstance(DelegatingConstructorAccessorImpl.java:45)
    at java.lang.reflect.Constructor.newInstance(Constructor.java:422)

B - Catch the Exception and check the parameters

To catch duplicate key Exception, we need to catch the specific class which is MySQLIntegrityConstraintViolationException. Also the following parameter must match;

SQL State      : 23000

So I use the following block to catch duplicate entries;

try {
    dbUtil.persistEntry(entry);
} catch (SQLException e) {
    if(e instanceof MySQLIntegrityConstraintViolationException) {
        if(e.getSQLState().equals("23000")) {
            if(e.getMessage().contains("Duplicate")) {
                isDuplicateEntryError = true;
            }
        }
    }
}

The following code works for me:

try {
    requete.executeUpdate();
} catch (final ConstraintViolationException e) {

}

catch SQLIntegrityConstraintViolationException, if you are using Java 1.6+

e.g.

try {
    ps.executeUpdate("INSERT INTO ...");
} catch (SQLIntegrityConstraintViolationException e) {
    // Duplicate entry
} catch (SQLException e) {
    // Other SQL Exception
}

or

try {
    ps.executeUpdate("INSERT INTO ...");
} catch (SQLException e) {
    if (e instanceof SQLIntegrityConstraintViolationException) {
        // Duplicate entry
    } else {
        // Other SQL Exception
    }
}
