The name of the Oracle sequence is PERSON_ID. The name of the DB Attribute name in the modeler is PERSON_ID. The obj Attribute name is personId. Is there somewhere in the modeler that you can specify what the sequence name is? Looking through the documentation I see a section for Generate Primary Key Support. This section refers to the Generate Database Schema option where you can specify to "Drop Primary Key Support" and "Create Primary Key Support". Does this pertain to what I am trying to do? Any additional info you can give to point me in the right direction is greatly appeciated. Thanks.

Is the name of the Oracle sequence the same as the name you set on the
entity in the modeler? If it wasn't specified, the sequence name
defaults to PK_TABLENAME, e.g., PK_PERSONS.
When you're able to do experimentation again, look at the log to see if
Cayenne is getting as far as the "SELECT pk_persons.nextval FROM DUAL"
statement. It sounds like the sequence doesn't exist by that name.
If it does get that far, the next SQL statement will probably be the
INSERT and you'll be able to see from the bindings what it's using for
the PERSON_ID.
