Thanks O,
The same code works like a charm when I revert back to 7.4x JDBC driver with PGSql 8.x. Could it be the way the 8.x
driversare implemented?
Thanks,

I guess that the JBoss CMP layer is using setString() instead of
setDate() (or setObject(..., Types.VARCHAR) not setObject(...,
Types.DATE)) to set the parameter in question. I'm not familiar with the
JBoss CMP layer, but can you configure it to use setDate() / Types.DATE?
Alternatively, change your schema to have creation_date as a text type.
