Answer

I think that relationship between the entity Company and the entity Order is the cause of your problem. The entity Order haven't Company.

A question, order.getCompany() could be null during your tests? Your mapping of the entity Order is:

@ManyToOne(**optional = false**, fetch = FetchType.LAZY)

I see that the field Company is required in the entity Order.

Regards

Question 2

This problem appears randomly. Program has worked well for over a month and today it crashed. While adding a new order the user can choose a company from the dropdown list. Then he can save new order to the database. It works most of the times even now when a reloaded the app. The error code is as follows:

javax.persistence.PersistenceException: org.hibernate.PropertyValueException: not-null property references a null or transient value: mapped.Order.company (odwzorowania.Zlecenie.firma)

Using Hibernate, JSF 2.1, MySql 5.5, javax.persistence.*

here is the code (names are translated from polish)

public void update(Order order) throws AdException
{
    try
    {
        begin();

            Company fir2 = order.getCompany();

            em.merge(fir2);
            em.merge(order);

        commit();
    }
    catch( HibernateException e )
    {
        rollback();
        throw new AdException("Nie mozna zaktualizować zlecenia",e);
    }
}

Order entity

    import javax.persistence.* //fixed in real code

    @Entity
    @Table(name = "order")


    public class Order implements Serializable {
    private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;

    private Integer idOrder;
    private Company company;
    [...]

    @JoinColumn(name = "company_idCompany", referencedColumnName = "idCompany")
    @ManyToOne(optional = false, fetch = FetchType.LAZY)
    public Company getCompany() {
        return company;
    }

    public void setCompany(Company company) {
        this.company = company;
    }
    [...]

Company entity

import javax.persistence.*

@Entity
@Table(name = "company")

public class Company implements Serializable {

private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;

private Integer idCompany;       
private List<Order> orderList;
[...]

@OneToMany(mappedBy = "company", fetch = FetchType.LAZY)
public List<Order> getOrderList() {
    return orderList;
}

public void setOrderList(List<Order>orderList) {
    this.orderList = orderList;
}
[...]

stack trace ( mapped.Order.company is the same as odwzorowania.Zlecenie.firma translated from polish)

I have found some answers but none of them seems to fit my problem. As you can see I'm updating both sides of bi-directional assocation between company and order.
