asp.net-mvc-3 - EntityState.Modified の割り当て時に「参照整合性制約違反が発生しました」

Question

以下は私のコードファーストのデータモデルです:

    public class Job
    {
        public Job()
        {
            this.Jobs = new List<Job>();
            this.Quotes = new List<Quote>();
            this.WorkTimes = new List<WorkTime>();
        }

        public long ID { get; set; }
        public string JobName { get; set; }
        public string Description { get; set; }

        [ForeignKey("Customer")]
        public Nullable<long> CustomerID { get; set; }
        public Nullable<decimal> LimitHours { get; set; }

        [ForeignKey("ParentJob")]
        public Nullable<long> ParentID { get; set; }
        public Nullable<System.DateTime> HardDeadline { get; set; }
        public Nullable<System.DateTime> SoftDeadline { get; set; }
        public int Priority { get; set; }
        public Nullable<byte> Progress { get; set; }

        [ForeignKey("JobState")]
        public Nullable<byte> JobStateID { get; set; }

        public virtual Customer Customer { get; set; }
        public virtual ICollection<Job> Jobs { get; set; }
        public virtual Job ParentJob { get; set; }
        public virtual ICollection<Quote> Quotes { get; set; }
        public virtual ICollection<WorkTime> WorkTimes { get; set; }
        public virtual ENUM_JobState JobState { get; set; }
    }

public class Customer
{
        public Customer()
        {
            this.Customers = new List<Customer>();
            this.Jobs = new List<Job>();
        }

   public long ID { get; set; }
   public string Name { get; set; }
   public Nullable<long> ParentID { get; set; }
   public string InvoiceEmail { get; set; }
   public virtual ICollection<Customer> Customers { get; set; }
   public virtual Customer ParentCustomer { get; set; }

        public byte ID { get; set; }
        [Required]
        public string Value { get; set; }

        public virtual ICollection<Job> Jobs { get; set; }
}


public class ENUM_JobStateMap : EntityTypeConfiguration<ENUM_JobState>
    {
        public ENUM_JobStateMap()
        {
            // Primary Key
            this.HasKey(t => t.ID);

            // Properties
            this.Property(t => t.Value)

            // Table & Column Mappings
            this.ToTable("ENUM_JobStates");
            this.Property(t => t.ID).HasDatabaseGeneratedOption(DatabaseGeneratedOption.Identity).IsRequired(); 
            this.Property(t => t.Value).HasColumnName("Value");


        }
    }

public class JobMap : EntityTypeConfiguration<Job>
    {

            this.Property(t => t.Description).HasColumnName("Description");
            this.Property(t => t.CustomerID).HasColumnName("CustomerID");

            // Relationships
            this.HasOptional(t => t.Customer)
                .WithMany(t => t.Jobs)
                .HasForeignKey(d => d.CustomerID);
            this.HasOptional(t => t.ParentJob)
                .WithMany(t => t.Jobs)
                .HasForeignKey(d => d.ParentID);


            this.HasRequired(t => t.JobState)
                .WithMany(t => t.Jobs)
                .HasForeignKey(t => t.JobStateID);
              //.HasForeignKey(d => d.JobStateID);

        }
    }

public class CustomerMap : EntityTypeConfiguration<Customer>
{
    public CustomerMap()
    {
        // Primary Key
        this.HasKey(t => t.ID);

        // Properties
        this.Property(t => t.Name)

        this.Property(t => t.InvoiceEmail)

    }
}

エラーが発生している MVC3 コントローラー:

    [HttpPost]
    public ActionResult Edit(Job job)
    {
        if (ModelState.IsValid)
        {
            if (job.ParentJob != null || string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(job.ParentJob.JobName))
                job.ParentJob = null;
            job.JobState = ENUM_JobState.CreateIfNotExist2(job.JobState.Value, db);
            job.Customer = Customer.CreateIfNotExist2(job.Customer.Name, db);

            //db.Jobs.Attach(job);
            db.Entry(job).State = EntityState.Modified;
            db.SaveChanges();
            return RedirectToAction("Index");
        }
        return View(job);
    }

私はAJAXオートコンプリートを使用しており、CreateIfNotExist2関数は型指定された値を見つけるか、存在しない場合は作成します。

db.Entry(job).State = EntityState.Modified;次の行で例外がスローされます。

A referential integrity constraint violation occurred: The property values that define the referential constraints are not consistent between principal and dependent objects in the relationship.

非常に一般的な例外で、面白くありません。ここや他の場所で、明らかな解決策の順列をたくさん試しました。

私は困惑しています。

1) 問題は何ですか? 2)エンティティが存在しない場合、後で選択してエンティティを作成するためのより良いMVC/EF方法はありますか?
