This was never supported, but simply did not report the error in the past.
Transaction isolation must be set before the first statement of the
transaction is executed. The server must know in advance what type of
snapshot it must take when the transaction starts. It cannot go back and
time and retake it if the isolation level changes mid-transaction.

I'm guessing you are using PreparedStatement.setString for a numeric
value. Do you have a query like "WHERE colname / ? " ? You need to use a
different setXXX method that takes a numeric value.
