I have never tried importing data using  Netbeans IDE, but one 
scenario I have seem above error is if the data file does not have 
data for all the columns. For example :

create table t1(a int , b int , c int );

and the data file t1.txt has
1, 2
3, 4

call SYSCS_UTIL.SYSCS_IMPORT_TABLE (null, 'T1', 't1.txt', null, null, 
null, 0)

above import procedure call  will fail, with the same error you are 
seeing.


Another thing I would check is how the columns are separated in the 
file and the format matches with the arguments to import procedure you 
are passing.

I think, the error should be improved for this case.


hope that helps
