    That's what I suspect too... Sequence increment must be the same in
    DB and in Cayenne model (note that in Cayenne increment is 20 by
    default, unless you change it per entity). Did you create sequences
    using the modeler, or by hand?

    In any event you can drop and recreate the sequences again. Since you
    already have some data, you will need to set the initial value. The
    syntax is described in this Jira issue (that we need to add to
    Cayenne eventually)
