Association error?

Hello!

I am trying to save a three level association:

ChannelProgram hasOne (1:1) ChannelProgramSpecials hasMany (1:n) ChannelProgramSpecialBlocks

The same association build with other tables works like a charm:

ChannelProgram hasOne (1:1) ChannelProgramSpots hasMany (1:n) ChannelProgramSpotBlocks

The code of saving the first is quite similar to the working second.

Error output when saving:

SQLSTATE[23000]: Integrity constraint violation: 1452 Cannot add or update a child row: a foreign key constraint fails (`bradio_one`.`channel_program_special_blocks`, CONSTRAINT `FK_PROGRAM_SPECIAL_BLOCKS` FOREIGN KEY (`channel_program_special_id`) REFERENCES `channel_program_specials` (`channel_program_id`) ON)

Entity structure before save method called:

object(App\Model\Entity\ChannelProgram) {

I am stucked here and would appreciate your help!

Kind regards,

Andre

I have also tried to insert the same with a third one (same table association like the two above) - this one works also …

Any suppositions?

Can you please post the table definition for the Entity that does not work? In my experience there is any non-null value specified on the table that is not explicitly set in your entity…

Already solved, thanks for your suggestion!
