PersistenceException with Postgres

[marfago]

Hi,

I've set up a web app using Activiti Engine and Postgres. Initially I was using H2 db just for testing purpose and all was working fine, then I moved to Postgres.
In short, when I try to search for comments I get this error:


org.apache.ibatis.exceptions.PersistenceException: <|### Error querying database.  Cause: org.postgresql.util.PSQLExcept

I'v tried with 8.3-606.jdbc4 and PostgreS 8.3 and 9.1 but nothing changed.
Any clue?

Here my conf:

database.url = jdbcostgresql://localhost:5432
database.driver = org.postgresql.Driver
database.username = postgres
database.password = postgres
database.showSql = true
database.generateDdl = false
database.target=POSTGRESQL

And in spring conf:

<bean id="entityManagerFactory"
      class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean">
      <property name="persistenceUnitName" value="pu" />
      <property name="dataSource" ref="dataSource" />
      <property name="jpaVendorAdapter">
         <bean class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.vendor.HibernateJpaVendorAdapter">
            <property name="database" value="${database.target}"/>
            <property name="showSql" value="${database.showSql}" />
            <property name="generateDdl" value="${database.generateDdl}" />
         </bean>
      </property>
   </bean>

   <bean id="dataSource"
      class="org.springframework.jdbc.datasource.DriverManagerDataSource">
      <property name="driverClassName" value="${database.driver}" />
      <property name="url" value="${database.url}" />
      <property name="username" value="${database.username}" />
      <property name="password" value="${database.password}" />
   </bean>

Hi,

There seems to be a bug in the select comments query.
I'll try to reproduce it on PostgreSQL and create a fix for this for the 5.10 release.

Thanks,

[marfago]

Thanks.
Is there a jira for that?
