Getting “Invalid column type” excecption, while using NamedParameterJDBCTemplate for insertion

Question

I am using below code while inserting a row into database(oracle 10g xe,jar: ojdbc14.jar)

String sql = \"INSERT INTO SPONSOR_TB(ID,NAME,INDUSTRY_TYPE,IS_REPO         


        

Answer 1

for me this issue happened when i try to set null value on timestamp column. I changed the value timestamp(0). This seems to me a driver issue. I was using oracle 10g / ojdbc14.jar / oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver

   java.sql.SQLException: Invalid column type

Answer 2

You are getting this exception because you are using JdbcTemplate instead of NamedParameterJdbcTemplate. MapSqlParameterSource works with NamedParameterJdbcTemplate.

Answer 3

You might want to try using strings instead of characters for your CHAR(1) Y/N fields.

Answer 4

Try changing your code to:

paramSource.addValue("NAME1",sponsor.getName(), Types.VARCHAR);
paramSource.addValue("INDUSTRY_TYPE", sponsor.getIndustryType(), Types.INTEGER);
paramSource.addValue("IS_NOT_SOLICITE", sponsor.getNotSoliciteFlag()?'Y':'N', Types.CHAR);
paramSource.addValue("IS_REPORTING_SPONSOR", sponsor.getReportingFlag()?'Y':'N', Types.CHAR);

Though it is too late, today I found the same issue. I tried all of the above options which were provided by the other members, but no luck. What I found was, to add a char column in where clause I was providing the java.lang.char in that space.

Suppose my query looks like this - SELECT * FROM app_config WHERE enable = :enable;, where the 'enable' column is char(1) column in DB. So while passing the parameter in namedparameterJdbcTemplate, I was passing a java char as 'Y', which was causing the error.

In order to solve that I passed normal java string as the parameter value in the namedparameterJdbcTemplate like "Y" and BANG!!! It works fine. Also I need not to provide the Types in MapSqlParameterSource. So my ultimately code looks like below -

protected String getConfigValue(String configKey, String enable) throws BusinessException {
        String value = "";
        try {
            if (StringUtils.isNotBlank(configKey)) {
                MapSqlParameterSource parameters = new MapSqlParameterSource();
                parameters.addValue(ApplicationDaoConstants.CONFIG_KEY, configKey); // This is the VARCHAR column in DB
                parameters.addValue(ApplicationDaoConstants.ENABLE, enable); // This is the character column in DB

                value = nmJdbcTmplt.query(AppConfigSQL.GET_CONFIG_VALUE, parameters, rs -> {
                    if (rs.next()) {
                        return rs.getString(ApplicationDaoConstants.CONFIG_VALUE);
                    }
                    return "";
                });
            }
        } catch (Exception e) {
            log.error("Exception occured while accessing app_config ", e);
            throw new BusinessException(ApplicationConstants.ERROR_ACCESSING_DATABASE);
        }

        return value;
    }

I hope this could help others. Thanks!

In my case I was providing an Enumeration datatype instead of a datatype compatible with VARCHAR2 in database (like String ).

My query was like :

private static final String QUERY ="SELECT res.id, FROM result res " +
"WHERE res.country = :resCountry ";

And at the time of passing the parameter resCountry, I did like this:

List<Map<String, Object>> listResult = jdbcTemplate.queryForList(QUERY,Country.US);

Now the complaint/exception came from the fact that Country.US was of type Enumeration Country

I did the following change to make it work.

List<Map<String, Object>> listResult = jdbcTemplate.queryForList(QUERY,Country.US.name());

After this change it worked fine.
