Thanks for your replies.
David J. - Yes, the same User/PW is used to access, and no, there aren't any other functions in other schemas.
I wrote some simple java code to test the issue (below). The connection works and the table rows are returned, but the
external_idcolumn (filled by the function) is not populated.
public class testconn {
public static void main(String[] argv) {
try {
Class.forName("org.postgresql.Driver");
} catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
return;
}
Connection connection = null;
try {
String url = "jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/postgres";
Properties props = new Properties();
props.setProperty("user","postgres");
props.setProperty("password","postgres");
connection = DriverManager.getConnection(url, props);
} catch (SQLException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
return;
}
try {
Statement st = connection.createStatement();
ResultSet rs = st.executeQuery("SELECT external_id FROM rhs.encounter");
while (rs.next()) {
System.out.println(rs.getString(1));
}
rs.close();
st.close();
} catch (SQLException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
Thanks,
Brady
