"Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint. Cannot insert duplicate key in object" when using update or insert on tDBOutput

I'm receiving the error "Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint. Cannot insert duplicate key in object" when using update or insert on tDBOutput for a table that needs to retain it's data (so it can't be dropped or truncated, etc.). I don't understand why I would get this error; if the key is duplicate, it should update. For reference, if I use insert, or I use update, they both work properly, but I can't get the combination option to work. Does anyone have any ideas why this would be happening? Thanks!

Hi

Which DB type?

Make sure you have checked the 'key' box of the primary keys' column on schema of tDBOutput when you select 'insert or update' option.
