DBLINK Doesn't work thru Oracle JVM

Question

I have written a class which can be published
as a java stored procedure, as well as can
be run from command line using Sun's JDK.
When run from the command line it uses
the JDBC thin driver to connec to a 8.1.6 DB,
it executes a query on a DBLINK table . the DBLINK is to a 8.1.7 DB.
This works perfectly.
How ever when i load this class in 8.1.6 DB
and call the stored procedure it does not work. when run as a stored proc, it uses the
JDBC Serverside internal driver using
OracleDriver().defaultConnection()
i get the following exception
oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleSQLException: ORA-01478: array bind may not include any LONG columns
ORA-02063: preceding line from APRTSR
at oracle.jdbc.kprb.KprbDBAccess.check_error(KprbDBAccess.java:1018)

at dblinktest.storedProc(dblinktest.java:79)
There is NO LONG NOR any ARRAY datatype in the table or in the query.
Below is the code.
the main method is called when run from command line while the storedproc method is called when run as java stored proc.
import java.sql.*;
import oracle.jdbc.driver.*;
public class dblinktest {
public static String callMe(Connection conn) {
String table_name = "rts.tis_bills@aprtsr" ;
String sql_qry = "Select count(*) from " + table_name +
" where ctry_code = ? and bch_code = ?" ;
PreparedStatement pstmt = null ;
ResultSet rs = null ;
try {
pstmt = conn.prepareStatement(sql_qry);
pstmt.setString(1,"760");
pstmt.setString(2,"00");
rs = pstmt.executeQuery();
if(rs.next())
return rs.getString(1);
else
return "NO DATA" ;
catch(Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace(System.out);
return "FAILURE" ;
finally {
if(rs != null) {
try {
rs.close();
catch(Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace(System.out);
if (pstmt != null) {
try {
pstmt.close();
catch(Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace(System.out);
public static void main(String argc[]) {
String host = "shp15" ;
String port = "4557" ;
String sid = "aprtsr" ;
String uid = "rts_cots" ;
String passwd = "rts_cots" ;
String jdbcURL = "jdbc:oracle:thin:@"+ host + ":" + port + ":" + sid ;
Connection conn = null ;
try {
Class.forName("oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver");
conn = DriverManager.getConnection(jdbcURL,uid,passwd);
System.out.println(callMe(conn));
catch(Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace(System.out);
System.exit(0);
finally {
if(conn != null) {
try {
conn.close() ;
catch(Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace(System.out);
public static String storedProc()
Connection conn = null ;
try {
conn = new OracleDriver().defaultConnection() ;
return callMe(conn);
catch(Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace(System.out);
return "FAILURE" ;
finally {
if(conn != null) {
try {
conn.close() ;
catch(Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace(System.out);
