Error while using dbms_xmlsave.UpdateXML and dbms_xmlsave.insertXML

Question

The Record I am trying to insert/update has the following structure
<ROWSET>
<ROW>
<COL1>123</COL1>
</ROW>
</ROWSET>
Table structure is as below
COL1 INT [Primary constraint]
COL2 VARCHAR2(100) NOT NULL [but has default value of 'COL2_Default']
Now since the XML doesn't have the entry for COL2, I am explicitly setting the columns to be updated/inserted using dbms_xmlsave.setUpdateColumn.
I use the logic the following logic to insert/update the table
-- set the primary key column name. This forms the where clause for update statement
dbms_xmlsave.setkeycolumn(l_Context , 'COL1');
-- cXML have the XML structure mentioned above
l_rows := dbms_xmlsave.updateXML(l_Context, cXML);
IF l_rows <= 0 THEN -- which means no rows found for update
l_rows := dbms_xmlsave.insertXML(l_Context, cXML);
END IF;
Now when the excution of dbms_xmlsave.updateXML happens Java Runtime Error is thrown.
ORA-29532: Java call terminated by uncaught Java exception: oracle.xml.sql.OracleXMLSQLException: 'java.sql.SQLException: Missing IN or OUT parameter at index:: 5' encountered during processing ROW element 0. All prior XML row changes were rolled back. in the XML document.
The version of oracle I am using is 9.2.0.6.0.
Please let me know if anyone has any idea on this error.

Found maybe an applicable reference...
On http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/wasinfo/v4r0/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.support.was.doc/html/Java_2_Connectivity_(J2C)/1163246.html
it says:
* Application code is missing a setXXX method call somewhere.
* There might be a problem in the Oracle JDBC driver code.
If the latter is the problem than you should or try a different JDBC driver or (which is probably the best solution anyway) create an iTar with Oracle support via metalink.oracle.com
Other references can also be found on the internet when using google which could be applicable. Search on keywords: "Missing IN or OUT parameter at index"
