What is the column order in T2? If it is just the same as for T1 (A,B,C,D), then you inserd T1.D to T2.A, T1.A to T2.B, etc. So, there could be
a good reason for potential violation of UPI as T2.D is null in the query.
Try to list the columns explicitly (if that's what you intend, of course):

Perhpas that's all there is. If not, report back, and we'll see what else can cause the problem.
