[deepu105]

I think we need to exclude adding imports and service if the relationship is with same entity

[yingw]

I got the same issue, as deepu said , just remove the link of Employee(manager) to itself, then the import will go well. Wish jhispter fix it asap.

remove this:
relationship ManyToOne { Employee{manager} to Employee }

This error also occurs when importing the sample initially loaded in JDL Studio
