Missing Imports in Java stored Procedure

--- Oracle Database Configuration :-
--- Oracle9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.4.0 - 64bit Production
--- PL/SQL Release 9.2.0.4.0 - Production
--- CORE 9.2.0.3.0 Production
--- TNS for Solaris: Version 9.2.0.4.0 - Production
--- NLSRTL Version 9.2.0.4.0 - Production
When loading a java stored procedure into the above database I am seeing the following errors:-
Class javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilder not found in import.
Class javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory not found in import.
Class javax.xml.parsers.FactoryConfigurationError not found in import.
Class javax.xml.parsers.ParserConfigurationException not found in import.
Class org.xml.sax.EntityResolver not found in import.
Class org.xml.sax.InputSource not found in import.
Class org.xml.sax.SAXException not found in import.
Class org.xml.sax.SAXParseException not found in import.
Class org.w3c.dom.Document not found in import.
Interface ErrorHandler of class CMSLogic not found.
However, the process results in no errors when running against a database running on a Windows platform.
Assistance would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Adrian,
Package "javax.xml" is part of the JDK since version 1.4
However, Oracle 9i is compatible with JDK 1.3
So either you need to find a 3rd-party implementation of package "javax.xml" that is compatible with JDK 1.3, or upgrade your database to Oracle 10g, which is compatible with JDK 1.4
Good Luck,
Avi.

Missing Defines Error in Simple Java Stored Procedure

Anyone have any suggestions on what might be causing the unusual behavior described below? Could it be a 10g java configuration issue? I am really stuck so I'm open to just about anything. Thanks in advance.
I am writing a java stored procedure and am getting some SQLException's when executing some basic JDBC code from within the database. I reproduced the problem by writing a very simple java stored procedure which I have included below. The code executes just fine when executed outside of the database (10g). Here is the output from that execution:
java.class.path=C:\Program Files\jEdit42\jedit.jar
java.class.version=48.0
java.home=C:\j2sdk1.4.2_04\jre

In getConnection
Executing outside of the DB
Driver Name = Oracle JDBC driver
Driver Version = 10.1.0.2.0
column count=1
column name=TEST
column type=1
TEST
When I execute it on the database by calling the stored procedure I get:

Java Stored Procedure in EXECUTE IMMEDIATE

Hi,
I need advice for the following.
I'm on Oracle 11g R2. I'm testing application in Oracle 11gR1 and R2 and Oracle Express.
Purpose is to generate XML reports.
I have PLSQL Stored Procedure which does that, but since there is bug in Oracle11gR2 related to XMLTRANSFORM I have and Java Stored Procedure which is workaround. They are both compiled, valid etc.
Java class is :
import java.io.PrintWriter;
import java.io.Writer;
import oracle.xml.parser.v2.DOMParser;
import oracle.xml.parser.v2.XMLDocument;
import oracle.xml.parser.v2.XSLProcessor;
import oracle.xml.parser.v2.XSLStylesheet;
* This class is used as Java stored procedure
* There is a bug on Oracle11gR2, related to the limitation on the number of style sheet instructions
* This stored procedure is workaround when PLSQL code can not be used.
* File must not have package, otherwise is wrongly compiled in DB
public class JavaXslt {
     public static void XMLTtransform(oracle.sql.CLOB xmlInput,oracle.sql.CLOB xslInput,oracle.sql.CLOB output) throws Exception{
          DOMParser parser;
          XMLDocument xml;
          XMLDocument xsldoc;
          try{
               parser = new DOMParser();
               parser.parse(xmlInput.getCharacterStream());
               xml = parser.getDocument();
               parser.parse(xslInput.getCharacterStream());
               xsldoc = parser.getDocument();
               XSLProcessor processor = new XSLProcessor();
               XSLStylesheet xsl = processor.newXSLStylesheet(xsldoc);
               Writer w = output.setCharacterStream(1L);
               PrintWriter pw = new PrintWriter(w);
               processor.processXSL(xsl, xml, pw);
          }catch (Exception ex){
               throw ex;
PROCEDURE Java_XmlTransform (xml CLOB, xslt CLOB, output CLOB) AS LANGUAGE JAVA
NAME 'JavaXslt.XMLTtransform(oracle.sql.CLOB, oracle.sql.CLOB, oracle.sql.CLOB)';
I'm calling Java stored procedure from PLSQL Stored procedure (if it is Oracle11gR2) like that :
Java_Proc.Java_XmlTransform(inputXML, xslt, res);
So till here everything works ok. XSLT as applied and output XML (res) is OK.
But when Oracle Express is used Java is out of the question, so there is no Java stored procedure. Howewer PLSQL Stored procedure is still needed.
So I had to put call to Java Stored procedure in EXECUTE IMMEDIATE statement in order to compile to PLSQL package.
But when I do that :
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'BEGIN Java_Proc.Java_XmlTransform (:1, :2, :3); END;' USING inputXML, xslt, res;
result value CLOB (res) has zero length...
What am I missing? Should i set return value to Java class?
Hope my explanations are clear though.
Thanks

Hi odie_63,
Thanks for quick response.
I didn't clearly explained.
When using Oracle 11gR1 and Oracle Express I'm using only PLSQL Procedure.
When using Oracle 11gR2 i have to use Java Stored procedure because there is documented bug in R2.
That's why i have to use EXECUTE IMMEDIATE. I don't know which version is the client DB and whether there is or no Java procedures.
I did tried
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'BEGIN Java_Proc.Java_XmlTransform (:1, :2, :3); END;' USING IN inputXML, IN xslt, OUT res; and the result was ORA-06537: OUT bind variable bound to an IN position
When using IN OUT for last parameter i.e.
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'BEGIN Java_Proc.Java_XmlTransform (:1, :2, :3); END;' USING IN inputXML, IN xslt, IN OUT res;
there is no exception, but still DBMS_LOB.getlength(res) = 0
Thanks

Hello,
Thanks for the reply. Actually I have seen that post before creating this thread. I thought that I could make use of java mail to work around this problem. I created a java class that succesfully sends mail to SSL host. I tried to call this java class from pl-sql through java stored procedure. That did not work
So, is this not supported in Oracle ? Please note that I have tested this in both 9i and 11g , in both the versions I got the error. You can refer to the code in the above post.
Thanks

Calling XML API's from Java Stored Procedures in DB

Hi,
I am have and Oracle 10gR2 db installed and XML Publisher Enterprise Server 5.6.2.
I have created the following Java Class and used loadjava to make it a Java Stored Procedure:
<code>
import java.io.IOException;
import java.lang.Object;
import oracle.apps.xdo.XDOException;
import oracle.apps.xdo.template.FOProcessor;
import oracle.apps.xdo.template.RTFProcessor;
public class callingXMLP{
public static String rtfToXsl(String rtfFile, String xslFile)
try {
RTFProcessor rtfProcessor = new RTFProcessor(rtfFile); //Input RTF
rtfProcessor.setOutput(xslFile);
rtfProcessor.process();
} catch (IOException IOE) {
return" Error "+IOE.getMessage();}
catch(XDOException XDE ){
return" Error "+XDE.getMessage();
return "Success";
public static String mergeXmlXsl(String xmlFile, String xslFile, String outputFile)
FOProcessor processor = new FOProcessor();
processor.setData(xmlFile); //Input XML File
processor.setTemplate(xslFile); //Input XSL File
processor.setOutput(outputFile); //Ouput File
processor.setOutputFormat(FOProcessor.FORMAT_PDF);
//start processing
try {
processor.generate();
catch (XDOException e){
e.printStackTrace();
//System.exit(1);
return "Error - "+e.getMessage();
//System.exit(0);
return "Success";
</code>
I then wrap this using the following function spec in pl/sql:
create or replace function callXMLP(input1 VARCHAR2, output1 VARCHAR2) RETURN VARCHAR2
as language java name 'callingXMLP.rtfToXsl(java.lang.String,java.lang.String) return java.lang.String';
and
create or replace function mergeXMLXSL(xml VARCHAR2, xsl VARCHAR2, output VARCHAR2) RETURN VARCHAR2
as language java name 'callingXMLP.mergeXmlXsl(java.lang.String,java.lang.String,java.lang.String) return java.lang.String';
Calling the callXMLP function works fine, and produces an XSL file from the input RTF file as expected.
When I run the mergeXMLXSL function, it says that the function has completed successfully, but it seems to be throwing an XDOException error as it is returning "Error - null" message from the Java.
A PDF document is being created, but it does not have any content. I have also modified the Java to create an RTF instead, but still the same thing happens.
Is there anything that I need to check, or something that I am missing when trying to create the final PDF document?
Please help, I am completely stuck with this now.
Many Thanks,
Cj

Is it possible to use iFS API within java stored procedure?

question:
is it possible to use the iFS API for file handling
within a java stored procedure (which is invoced by a trigger)?
is there an "elegant" workaround if it is not possible?
problem:
my java code using the iFS API works fine outside
the java stored procedure
but invoked via trigger as java stored procedure
it throws following exception:
IFS-20102: Unable to start service (IfsDefault)
i am using:
oracle 9.0.1
oracle internet file system 9.0.1.1.0
windows 2000
thanks

thanks for your help
i looked through the applications developers guide
the basics behind advanced queueing (as far as i understand) is:
program A inserts a message into the queue - and program B gets message from the queue and processes it
question 1:
but what is the difference between advanced queuing and a queue i create by myself
(simply with a database table) and let application B (which runs in a loop)
check if the queue is filled
or am i missing something important which makes advanced queuing more practicable for my problem?
question 2:
you wrote about advanced queuing support in iFS 9.0.3, but the newest version i found was iFS 9.0.2
did you reffer to the advanced queuing mechanism in general or to a spezial queuing feature in iFS 9.0.3?
thanks

Unable to access Custom UDTs returned from a Java Stored Procedure

Hi,
I have a UDT in the DB :-
create type contactrecord as object (
CN_ID NUMBER(8),
CN_TITLE VARCHAR2(40),
CN_FIRST_NAME VARCHAR2(25)
and this is the corresponding java class ContactDetails.java that maps to this UDT, that I loaded in the Aurora VM.
package package1;
mport java.sql.SQLData;
import java.sql.SQLException;
import java.sql.SQLInput;
import java.sql.SQLOutput;
public class ContactDetails implements SQLData
private String sql_type;
private long CN_ID;
private String CN_TITLE;
private String CN_FIRST_NAME;
public String getSQLTypeName() throws SQLException
return this.sql_type;
//implementation of readSql
public void readSQL(SQLInput stream, String typeName) throws SQLException
sql_type = typeName;
CN_ID = stream.readLong();
CN_TITLE = stream.readString();
CN_FIRST_NAME = stream.readString();
public void writeSQL(SQLOutput stream) throws SQLException
stream.writeLong(CN_ID);
stream.writeString(CN_TITLE);
stream.writeString(CN_FIRST_NAME);
//getters and setters for the class vars go here.....
There is another class A.java that has a java stored procedure/function, which I loaded into the Aurora VM
Here is the class.
package package1;
public class A
public static ContactDetails returnObject(String name )
ContactDetails cd = new ContactDetails();
cd.setCN_ID(1);
cd.setCN_FIRST_NAME(name);
return cd;
Then I declared the call spec for A.returnObject() as
FUNCTION returnObject(name varchar2) return contactrecord
AS LANGUAGE JAVA
NAME 'package1.A.returnObject(java.lang.String) return package1.ContactDetails';
Then I tried to call the function returnObject through JDBC calls from a class in another VM.
When I access the object returned by the function, I get a null object.
Here is the Client code:
CallableStatement cs = null;
ResultSet rs = null;
try
cs = conn.prepareCall("{ ? = call returnObject(?) }");
java.util.Map map = conn.getTypeMap();
map.put("ADMIN.CONTACTRECORD", Class.forName("package1.ContactDetails"));
conn.setTypeMap(map);
cs.registerOutParameter(1, OracleTypes.STRUCT, "ADMIN.CONTACTRECORD");
cs.setString(2, "John Doe" );
cs.execute();
ContactDetails cd = (ContactDetails)cs.getObject(1);
System.out.println("contact first name is:-"+cd.getCN_FIRST_NAME()); //Null Pointer here..cd is null....:(
if (cs != null) cs.close();
catch(Exception e)
e.printStackTrace();
Although If I try to access the same function from a pl/sql block, I am able
to access the contactrecord fields.
What could be wrong ..???
I could not find any error with the object mapping, as it works perfectly when I interact directly from my VM to the DB,
without going thru the aurora VM.
I am using a OCI driver to connect to the DB via JDBC.
Thanx in advance for any help at all.

Shahid,
I too have had bad luck in many cases with the automatic translation of Java types to PL/SQL and back. I think the SYS package on the PL/SQL side which handles some of the conversion is DBMS_PICKLER (there are equivalent Java classes which do the same in that world and seem to execute automagically when a conversion is needed). You might want to double-check the data type mappings against the DOC on OTN to make sure they map 1-1. Also make sure the permissions are granted against your objects to whoever is executing them, etc. Very often, I've resorted to passing simple scalar types between the two languages as in some cases the results with complex types are inconsistent.
Sorry this isn't much help,

URGENT: Java stored procedure on oracle 92 database is not working

Hi,
I am having an issue regarding java stored procedures. I have created a java class that uses the bouncycastleprovider ( bcprov-jdk13-141.jar ) to encrypt strings. I tested against the version of the java virtual machine that comes bundled with oracle and it works perfectly. I then used JDeveloper to load the class on the database with the resolve, noverify and order flags checked and it shows no errors but when I try to execute the stored procedure it throws the following exception:
java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError:
java.lang.SecurityException: Cannot set up certs for trusted CAs: java.net.MalformedURLException: no protocol: US_export_policy.jar
at javax.crypto.SunJCE_b.<clinit>(DashoA6275)
at javax.crypto.Cipher.a(DashoA6275)
at javax.crypto.Cipher.getInstance(DashoA6275)
at RijndaelEnhanced.encrypt(RijndaelEnhanced.java:57)
at RijndaelEnhanced.encrypt(RijndaelEnhanced.java:73)
I loaded jce1_2_2.jar, sunjce_provider.jar, bcprov-jdk13-141.jar. Also replaced the US_export_policy.jar, local_policy.jar with the unrestrictive version. I add the security provider dinamically with a call to Security.insertProviderAt(new org.bouncycastle.jce.provider.BouncyCastleProvider(), 2);
I also did a select on the user_objects table and all the classes are in VALID status.
When I run my application using the java virtual machine that is located under C:\Oracle\oracli9i\jdk\jre\bin directory it works fine but when I try to execute on the database it won't work. I found a bug that was if the jce1_2_1.jar file existed in the C:\Oracle\oracli9i\jdk\jre\lib\ext directory ( even if it's extension is renamed ) it won't work because the certification file had expired but I don't know if this has anything to do with this error.
Am I missing something?
Please I need an urgent solution to this problem.
Thanks in advance.

How to execute a procedure or function from Java Stored procedure

Hi,
I am new to Java Stored Procedures. I am working on Oracle 8i and JVM 1.3.1. I want to call a PL/SQL procedure from within Java. I have tried looking at severa; cources but they are quite high level for me. Can someone provide a simple example including the Source Code for .java file and also the calling function's code?
Heres a sample of what I have been working on: I an including Java code, and Function code and how I call the function. Instead of doing "select sysdate from dual" I want to do like "create table temp1(var1 varchar2(10))" or similar... like "exec procname(var1)" etc.
Thanks in advance.
PS. The variable passed in function is just a dummy variable.

Java Stored Procedure using XSU on 9i Lite

I have create Java Stored Procedure using XML SQL Utility to return results in XML format. I have tested the stored procedure on the development machine (with SDK and Webtogo)without any problem. When I tested it on the client machine (with only the lite database for Window download from the webtogo server as part of the setup), there's an error [POL-8035] no such attribute or method when I call the procedure through MSQL. However, after calling the stored procedure the 3rd times, it will return the results in XML. Once I logout after that, I will have to call the same SP 3 times (always 3 times) before I get the results.
I'm running on Win2000, Oracle lite 5.0.1. with jdk 1.3.1 - same for the development machine.
I'm using the same xsu12.jar file.
What did I miss?

Nothing?
No one? No ideias?

SQLException: Cursor is closed while calling a java stored procedure

Hi,
I got the following error when trying to read from a cursor of a java stored procedure:
java.sql.SQLException: Cursor is closed
The java procedure is stored in the database and wrapped by a sql call. Then another java class executes the sql call.
The stored procedure looks like this:
import java.io.Reader; import java.security.MessageDigest; import java.sql.*; import java.text.DateFormat; import java.text.ParseException; import java.text.SimpleDateFormat; import java.util.ArrayList; import java.util.Date; import java.util.List; import oracle.jdbc.OracleCallableStatement; import oracle.jdbc.OracleConnection; public class test { static Connection conn = null; static String username = null; static String password = null; static Integer userid = null; public static void main(String args[]) throws Exception { username = "keller"; password = "945435"; login(username, password); } public static String login(String in_username, String in_password) { String access = null; String password = null; try { DriverManager.registerDriver(new oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver()); // Non OracleVM System.out.print("Verbindung wird initialisiert...

if (password != null) {
if (password.equals(hexString.toString())) {
System.out.println("OK");
} else {
throw new Exception("Falsches Passwort!");
catch(SQLException e) {

System.err.println(e.getMessage());
catch(Exception e) {

System.err.println(e.getMessage());

catch(SQLException e) {

The sql call:
create or replace

And finally the wrapper is called by another java programm, see this:

CallableStatement stmt = null;
ResultSet rs1 = null;
int matrnr = 945098;
// Call PLSQL Stored Procedure
stmt = (CallableStatement)c.prepareCall("{ call ? := getklausuren(?) }");
stmt.setInt(2, matrnr);
// 2nd parameter is OUT paremeter
stmt.registerOutParameter(1, OracleTypes.CURSOR);
// Execute the callable statement
stmt.execute();
//Cursor in ResultSet einlesen
rs1 = ((OracleCallableStatement)stmt).getCursor(1);
ResultSetMetaData rsmd = rs1.getMetaData();
int anzSpalten = rsmd.getColumnCount();
List<String[]> zeilen = new ArrayList<String[]>();
while(rs1.next())
String[] zeile = new String[anzSpalten];
for (int i=1; i<=anzSpalten; i++)
zeile[i-1]=rs1.getString(i);
zeilen.add(zeile);
String[][] array_angeb_klaus = (String[][])zeilen.toArray(new String[zeilen.size()][anzSpalten]);
//**** ENDE
rs1.close();
stmt.close();
//c.close();
catch (SQLException e){
System.out.println(e);
catch (ClassNotFoundException f){
System.out.println(f);

On top of what jschell says, this just looks wrong in terms of how Oracle's internal Java works as well.
[Have a look here |http://www.oracle.com/technology/sample_code/tech/java/codesnippet/jdbc/refcur/index.html] (unless things have changed significantly over the past few years for Oracle Java).
Is the db you are querying a different one to the one this Java is stored in?

21700 while calling java stored procedure in 9i

I create a java stored procedure that takes a varray of a rowtype. When I call that procedure, I get an ora-21700. If I remove the varray from the parameter list, I can call the procedure okay. My goal is to create a generic java procedure that can take a rowtype from any table and create XML. Once I get the oracle.sql.ARRAY into my code, I am okay. I just can't seem to pass it in. I have pasted my code below:
Java:
import oracle.sql.*;
public class test {
public static String sayHello() {
return("Hello, World!");
public static void genXML(oracle.sql.ARRAY a, oracle.sql.CLOB c) throws Exce
ption {
c.putString(1,"<test>This is a test!</test>");
PL/SQL:
create or replace package mike is
type dummy_record is varray (1) of dummy%rowtype;
PROCEDURE GENERATE_XML(i dummy_record, c CLOB);
FUNCTION SAYHELLO RETURN varchar2;
end mike;
show errors
create or replace package body mike is
PROCEDURE GENERATE_XML(i dummy_record,c CLOB)
AS LANGUAGE JAVA
NAME 'test.genXML(oracle.sql.ARRAY,oracle.sql.CLOB)';
FUNCTION SAYHELLO RETURN varchar2
AS LANGUAGE JAVA
NAME 'test.sayHello() return java.lang.String';
end mike;
show errors
DDL:
SQL> describe dummy
Name Null? Type
USERNAME VARCHAR2(20)
ID NUMBER
Test Script:
declare
m Mike.dummy_record := Mike.DUMMY_RECORD();
c CLOB;
begin
m.extend;
select xml into c from t_clob;
for rec in (select * from dummy)
LOOP
m(1) :=rec;
mike.generate_xml(m,c);
end loop;
end;
And finally, the output:
declare
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-21700: object does not exist or is marked for delete
ORA-06512: at "MMANGINO.MIKE", line 0
ORA-06512: at line 10
Sorry this post is so long, but I wanted it to be complete!
Mike

The first solution is to not do that in java in the first place.
DDL should be in script files which are applied to oracle outside of java.
Other than I believe there are some existing stored procedures in Oracle that take DDL strings and process them. Your user has to have permission of course. You can track them down via the documentation.

ResultSet from Java Stored Procedures

Hi,
How do I obtain a resultset from a Java Stored Procedure?
My stored procedure, deployed in Oracle8i, has Database package as sample.Have published setConnection() and getDept() methods.
Code for Java Stored Procedure:
package SPPackage;
import java.sql.*;
public class StoredProcApplication {
protected static Connection connection = null;
protected static Statement stmt = null;
protected static ResultSet res = null;
public static void setConnection() throws SQLException {
connection = new oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver().defaultConnection();
public static void getDept(Object[] obj) throws SQLException {
if (connection == null) {
setConnection();
if (stmt == null) {
stmt = connection.createStatement();
if (res == null) {
res = stmt.executeQuery("select * from DEPT");
obj[0] = res;
Code for TesterApplication :
package SPPackage;
import java.sql.*;
public class TesterApplication {
private static final String URL = "jdbc:oracle:thin:@sandeep:1521:oracle8i";
private static final String userId = "sandeep";
private static final String password = "sandeep";
private Connection connection;
private CallableStatement stmt;
private ResultSet res;
public void setConnection() throws ClassNotFoundException,SQLException {
Class.forName("oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver");
connection = DriverManager.getConnection(URL,userId,password);
public void getResultFromSP() throws SQLException {
//prepare to call the stored procedure
stmt = connection.prepareCall("{call sample.getDept(?)}");
//register the OUT parameters
stmt.registerOutParameter(1,Types.OTHER);
//execute the query
stmt.execute();
ResultSet res = (ResultSet)stmt.getObject(1);
while (res.next()) {
System.out.print(res.getInt(1) + " | " );
System.out.print(res.getString(2) + " | " );
System.out.print(res.getString(3) + " \n " );
public TesterApplication() throws SQLException,ClassNotFoundException {
try {
setConnection();
getResultFromSP();
} finally {
if (res != null) { res.close(); res = null; }
if (stmt != null) { stmt.close(); stmt = null; }
if (connection != null) { connection.close(); connection = null; }
public static void main(String[] args) {
try {
TesterApplication ta = new TesterApplication();
} catch (Exception e) {
System.err.println("Error while executing stored procedure " + e.getMessage());
e.printStackTrace();
When I run the TesterApplication, I get the following exception :
java.sql.SQLException: Invalid column type: get_internal_type
at oracle.jdbc.dbaccess.DBError.check_error(Compiled Code)
at oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleStatement.get_internal_type(Compiled Code)
at oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleCallableStatement.registerOutParameter(Compiled Code)
Also, if I want to execute the ResultSet in the stored proc itself, and return the values as Arrays of int[], and String[], how do I do it?By default the you can populate only int[0], String[0] , i.e. only one value!!!
if my statement is unknown, i.e, it might return a combination of updates and resultsets, how do I go about processing the result?
Please advise!!
TIA

Hi kkirk,
I found the post you mentioned.Well it dates back to November 1999 - "Problem returning resultset or ARRAY from java stored proc" by Stuart Popejoy ([email protected]).Too bad, it is still not solved!!
I am not very good at PL/SQL.However, it would still be helpful, if you could post the code here, or at my email address.
Meanwhile, I was trying this during the week-end.There seems to be a glimmer of hope!!
Let me know, if this makes sense :
CallableStatement cs = connection.prepareCall("begin open ? for select * from dept; end");
try {
cs.registerOutParameter(1,OracleTypes.CURSOR);
ResultSet res = ((OracleCallableStatement)cs).getCursor(1);
while (res.next()) {
//get the values
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStacktrace();
However, I am getting an exception trace
Error while executing stored procedure Invalid column type: getLong
java.sql.SQLException: Invalid column type: getLong
at oracle.jdbc.dbaccess.DBError.check_error(Compiled Code)
at oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleStatement.getLongValue(Compiled Code)
Not quite sure why this is happening!!
TIA,
