2019-02-14 08:20:30,283 ERROR [http-nio-7990-exec-5] @9W2ADRx500x81x0 xxxx xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx "POST /mvc/error500 HTTP/1.1" c.a.s.i.web.ErrorPageController There was an unhandled exception loading [/plugins/servlet/ssh/projects/TEST/keys/add]

org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: ERROR: duplicate key value violates unique constraint "AO_FB71B4_SSH_PUBLIC_KEY_pkey"
Detail: Key ("ENTITY_ID")=(22) already exists.

Cause

Sequence out of sync with the current data

Resolution

  1. Shutdown Bitbucket Server
  2. Run the following SQL to find the max ID number:

    SELECT
        MAX(public."AO_FB71B4_SSH_PUBLIC_KEY"."ENTITY_ID")
    FROM
        public."AO_FB71B4_SSH_PUBLIC_KEY";
  3. From the above result, run the following SQL to fix it:

    ALTER SEQUENCE public."AO_FB71B4_SSH_PUBLIC_KEY_ENTITY_ID_seq" RESTART WITH <above result + 1>;

    Replace <above result + 1> with the result from Step 3 plus 1

    Always back up your data before performing any modifications to the database. If possible, test any alter, insert, update, or delete SQL commands on a staging server first.

  4. Restart Bitbucket Server
