Hello , I followed the documentation: https://www.jhipster.tech/managing-relationships/#a-bidirectional-many-to-one-relationship

A bidirectional one-to-many relationship Let’s start with two entities, a Owner and a Car. A owner can have many cars, and a car can have only one owner.

So this is a one-to-many relationship (one owner has many cars) on one side, and a many-to-one relationship (many cars have one owner) on the other side:

Owner (1) <-----> (*) Car Note that after generating the entity, the generator will inform you that some errors occurred while generating the files. That’s normal as the destination entity has not yet been generated, so you can safely ignore this warning.

We will create the Owner first. Here are the relevant JHipster questions for the Owner:

jhipster entity Owner ... Generating relationships to other entities ? Do you want to add a relationship to another entity? Yes ? What is the name of the other entity? Car ? What is the name of the relationship? car ? What is the type of the relationship? one-to-many ? What is the name of this relationship in the other entity? owner

I think the issue is in the documentation: you can't create an entity with a relationship to another entity not created. I fixed my problem by declaring first Owener without relation ship, then created Car with relationship to Owner, then modified Owner to add the relationship to Car

I think this was fixed with #25564.

You should try to reproduce with the latest version.
