Postgres V9.1 issue with LIKE clause and Escape Strings
-------------------------------------------------------
Key: OPENJPA-2056
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OPENJPA-2056
Project: OpenJPA
Issue Type: Bug
Components: jdbc
Affects Versions: 2.1.1, 2.0.1, 2.0.0
Environment: Running against a Postgres database at version 9.1
Reporter: Andrew Hastie
Noticed an issue with the Postgres DBDictionary definition after updating Postgres from version
8.4 to 9.1:-
Here's what you get in the Postgres trace file when executing some JPA driven queries where
an SQL LIKE is involved:-
2011-09-30 14:29:41 BST ERROR: invalid escape string
2011-09-30 14:29:41 BST HINT: Escape string must be empty or one character.
2011-09-30 14:29:41 BST STATEMENT: SELECT t0.id, t0.identificationMask, t0.productName FROM
DBTYPE t0 WHERE (t0.identificationMask LIKE $1 ESCAPE '\\')
2011-09-30 14:29:41 BST ERROR: current transaction is aborted, commands ignored until end
of transaction block
This appears to be down to a change the Postgres project have made to escape string handling:-
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/static/release-9-1.html (see section E.2.2.1)
You appear to be able to override the default DBDictionary setting for this as follows to
get things working again:-
<property name="openjpa.jdbc.DBDictionary" value="postgres(SearchStringEscape=\)"/>
So, does this mean OpenJPA needs a version dependent dictionary definition for Postgres from
now on? Anybody got any better solutions or care to confirm what I'm seeing?
I've also posted this to the Postgres JDBC mailing list in case they have any comments.
