I have spend way too much find finding the root cause of the below error:

org.springframework.orm.jpa.JpaSystemException: could not serialize; nested exception is org.hibernate.type.SerializationException: could not serialize

I am trying to save some value to db:

public void logFailure(Long objectID,Integer usLK){

 StatusFailureDO failureDO = new StatusFailureDO(4,objectID, usLK);
 failuresRepository.save(failureDO.getFailure());
}

@Repository
public interface FailuresRepository extends JpaRepository<GeneralFailure, Integer> {
 GeneralFailure save(GeneralFailure aGeneralFailure);

 void delete(GeneralFailure aGeneralFailure);

 GeneralFailure findByObjectID(Long objectID);
}

There were many mapping errors and as such that I got pass now. I am trying to understand where in the process error occurs and what shall I look out for.

 public class StatusFailureDO extends GeneralFailureDO implements Serializable
 {
   public StatusFailureDO(Integer failureTypeLK,Long objectID,
                               Integer usLK)
   {
     super(new StatusFailure(failureTypeLK,
                "An exception occurred while trying to update an UploadStatus entry.",
                objectID, usLK));

Any help is really appreciated.

It is not obvious what the failureDO.getFailure() returns exactly because you did not provide a method definition for the StatusFailureDO.getFailure() method and so I will assume that that method returns an instance of a GeneralFailure class (or StatusFailure that extends it).

For hibernate to successfully save objects into the database, the @Entity classes that you are trying to save need to consist of "base" types. I see that you have an object of class CLRISCache defined in your GeneralFailure data class, that is most definitely not of a base type and not another @Entity. You can prevent a field from being persisted by marking it with the @Transient annotation, but really you should keep your data class pure.

You can find a list of "base" types here: https://docs.jboss.org/hibernate/orm/5.0/mappingGuide/en-US/html/ch03.html

Actually I found the reason. The General failure has dateCreation variable of Date type and in mu status failure I had it as a timestamp. I need to make it to Date and it worked.
