Обсуждение: question regarding upgrade from pg74.215.jdbc3.jar to postgresql-8.1-407.jdbc3.jar. function does not exist appeared ??? Please help :-/

Hi,

  I just upgraded my jdbc driver and fixing stuff to make it work with
the new driver.  I cannot find the  answer to the following one.  I
tried with the old driver and everything works.  With the new one that
doesn't work.

Here is the function declaration:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION usp_Comptabilite_AgeDeCompteClient(VARCHAR,
VARCHAR, DATE, BOOLEAN, BOOLEAN, INT, VARCHAR) RETURNS refcursor  AS $$


Here is the error that I grabbed from the postgresql log file:

          select * from usp_Comptabilite_AgeDeCompteClient(M, NULL,
2006-08-22 -0400, 1,         1, 0, NULL)

2006-08-22 18:04:27 LOG:  statement: PREPARE <unnamed> AS
select * from usp_Comptabilite_AgeDeCompteClient($1, $2, $3, $4,
$5, $6, $7)

2006-08-22 18:04:27 HINT:  No function matches the given name and

2006-08-22 18:04:27 STATEMENT:            select * from
usp_Comptabilite_AgeDeCompteClient($1, $2, $3, $4,         $5, $6, $7)


If I execute the statement on pgAdminIII it works: select * from
usp_Comptabilite_AgeDeCompteClient('M', NULL, '2006-08-22',
true,         true, '0', NULL)      ;

Any idea what is the difference between drivers that can explain this.
And of course how I can fix the problem!

Thanks for your help!  It's really appreciated!
Best Regards

P.S.: I traced with the debugger and I do call setDate for arg $3.  I
don't understand why it's still unknow ?

The problem is with parameter 7. This is expecting an INT, but you are
giving it a VARCHAR. You are probably calling setString(7, "0").

If you use setInt(7,0) or setObject(7,"0",Types.INTEGER) it should work.

Try it in pgAdmin using PREPARE and you should see the same error.

It's because the driver doesn't know whether it is a timestamp or a
timestamptz, and if we explicitly specify a type that doesn't match the
actual type then the server will mangle the value while casting.
However, it's not that parameter which is causing your problem.

Aaaand.. I can't count. It's parameter 6 :)

This is a network error that the driver can't do anything about. If you
have a stateful firewall between the client and the server, perhaps it
is dropping the connection because it has been idle.

You might see something in the backend logs -- "unexpected client EOF"
perhaps? Or just idle backend processes. It depends on exactly what is
going wrong, and the timing of it.

That is something you will have to diagnose yourself, it is specific to
your network.
