Hiya.

Because you're specifying:

Debtor deb1 = new Debtor();
  | deb1.setId(1);

...the entity manager will see this as "detached" - in other words, an object that is already persisted in the database (because it has a primary key), but is not currently managed by the entity manager.

The "persist" method is used to perform an SQL Insert for a *new* object; one without a PK.

So you can either:

1) Use EntityManager.merge() to synchronize these values with the database
2) Don't specify a PK; don't set the ID.

...depending on your PK Generation strategy.
