    Here's my guess. Your image table had some existing data before you
    added the sequence for Cayenne's use. When the modeler adds a sequence,
    it defaults to a starting value of 200, with SQL like this:

        CREATE SEQUENCE pk_image START WITH 200 INCREMENT BY 20;

    If your table already had primary keys with values of 200 and above,
    you'll get an occasional error like the one you saw. You can check this
    by looking at the log just before the error; you'll see what primary key
    the SQL is trying to assign.

    The fix would be to adjust the start value for the sequence to be higher
    than any value in the table.
