Before Insert or Upsert list must not have two identically equal elements
Hi all,
I'm trying to insert two new opportunities into the system in Apex based on user input. The values will be identical on both, apart from the Close Date which will always be different. However on the insert call, I'm getting the error in the subject. Does anyone know why I'm getting this and how to get around it? Why can I not insert more than one opportunity at once, regardless of the fact many of the fields are identical? Here's the code I'm using to create the opportunity records, note that popOpp is an opportunity record created in Apex, and it's fields are populated in a visualforce page. I then apply these values to new opportunityrecords and denamically populate the close date:
Thanks

Database.SaveResult[] oppSrList; try{ oppSrList = Database.insert(oppList); <--ERROR IS HERE }catch(Exception e){ ApexPages.addMessages(e); return; }

To avoid this error First add elements in Set which you want insert and then in last where you are going to perform DML copy data from that set to a list because DML can't be performed on Set.

Hi Deepak, oppList is already a List, of type Opportunity. It's declared at the top of the class and I initialise it just before that first code chunk, simply oppList = new List<Opportunity>(); All very standard stuff. I've never seen this error before when inserting lists of anything!

This is the contents of the list when I run the insert. The two elements aren't identical - the name and CloseDates are different! Completely confused here

Never mind, turns out there was a problem somewhere between eclipse and Salesforce, and my code changes were not being saved to the server. I'm guessing I probably fixed this bug on Friday afternoon but the code hadn't been uploaded successfully! Now on monday morning, the issue has resolved itself.
