Hi Richard and thank you for your help. Here is the actual message from
the pg log
ERROR: 42804: column "datetimein" is of type timestamp without time
zone but expression is of type character varying
HINT: You will need to rewrite or cast the expression.
I can aviod this by rewritting my queries and casting all the stuff
though I don't want to have to do this. I am trying to figure out what
is happening so I can find a proper solution, like I said this all
worked with pg 7.4
Here is my prepared statment in my java class
private static final String MANUALINSERT =
"insert into pactime (datetimein, pacpayperiodlink, wslink,
deptlink, commment, type) " +
"values ?,?,?,?,?,'man') ";
private static final String DATEOUTUPDATE =
"update pactime set datetimeout = timestamp, commment = ?,
type='man' where pactimeid =?";
and here si the way to fix but there are too many queires to have to
change them all.
private static final String MANUALINSERT =
"insert into pactime (datetimein, pacpayperiodlink, wslink,
deptlink, commment, type) " +
"values (cast(? as timestamp),?,?,?,?,'man') ";
private static final String DATEOUTUPDATE =
"update pactime set datetimeout = cast(? as timestamp), commment
= ?, type='man' where pactimeid =?";
here is where I am executing the statement in java
stmt = con.prepareStatement(DATEOUTUPDATE);
stmt.setString(1, dateout);
stmt.setString(2, comment);
stmt.setString(3, pactimeid);
