My app is using JRuby on Rails and Oracle. I have a join table that has
not ID column. When I create the table via db:migrate, no Oracle
Sequence is set up for it. Later when I populate the table with data, I
get an error that the sequence for the table doesn’t exist. The
db:migrate error is:
== UpdatePackagesValues: migrating ====================================
rake aborted!
An error has occurred, all later migrations canceled:
ActiveRecord::ActiveRecordError: ORA-02289: sequence does not exist
: select packages_values_seq.nextval id from dual
I am using ActiveRecord-JDBC (0.5) and activerecord-jdbc-adapter (0.8)
gems for accessing the database. The current 0.9.1 adapter has several
problems that I can’t work around. This feels like bug in
activerecord-jdbc-adapter (0.8) and I can work around it by manually
creating the Oracle Sequence object.
Also related is the fact that the Oracle Sequence Objects default to
starting at 10000. Is this an Oracle thing or can it be configured in
the adapter? I think I can get around this issue for now by manually
deleting and recreating the Sequence Objects before any data is loaded
into the database.

I found similar issues with the OracleEnhanced driver. I fixed things
up like this:
module ActiveRecord
module ConnectionAdapters
class OracleEnhancedAdapter
def create_table(name, options = {}) #:nodoc:
super(name, options)
seq_name = options[:sequence_name] || “#{name}_seq”
execute “CREATE SEQUENCE #{seq_name} START WITH 1 INCREMENT BY
1 NOCACHE ORDER NOCYCLE” unless options[:id] == false
end
end
module SchemaStatements
def add_index(table_name, column_name, options = {})
column_names = Array(column_name)
index_name = index_name(table_name, :column => column_names)
if Hash === options # legacy support, since this param was a
string
# add support for Oracle bitmap indexes
index_type = options[:unique] ? “UNIQUE” : options[:bitmap]
? “BITMAP” : “”
index_name = options[:name] || index_name
else
index_type = options
end
quoted_column_names = column_names.map { |e|
quote_column_name(e) }.join(", ")
execute “CREATE #{index_type} INDEX
#{quote_column_name(index_name)} ON #{quote_table_name(table_name)}
(#{quoted_column_names})”
end
end
end
end
