I have a simple script that runs on Unix and accesses MS SQL Server.  The problem I'm having is that I cannot read numeric defined datatypes.  I received the following error:

com.internetcds.jdbc.tds.TdsConfused: Protocol confusion- Was expecting a lengt5
        at java.lang.Throwable.fillInStackTrace(Native Method)                  
        at java.lang.Throwable.fillInStackTrace(Compiled Code)

        at jdbc.main(Compiled Code)                                             
Got an exception!                                                               
Protocol confusion- Was expecting a length of 17, got 5                         

Here are the column defs:

  Name               DataType                Length                       Value
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  recid                numeric                  18,0                           12345678901
  account            varchar                   50                              00100101




Heres the script:

        java.sql.Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection(url, usr, pswd);
        java.sql.Statement stmt = conn.createStatement();

        ResultSet rs;

        rs = stmt.executeQuery("SELECT recid, account  FROM some_table");

       while ( rs.next() ) {
                String rec_id =  rs.getString("recid");
                String acct = rs.getString("account");
                System.out.println("Record Id: " + rec_id);
                System.out.println("Account:  " + acct.trim());
                }                                                   
        conn.close();                                       
                                                    
        } catch (Exception e) {                             
                System.err.println("Got an exception! ");   
                System.err.println(e.getMessage());         
                                                    
        }                                                   

    
I get this message even if I don't set rec_id variable and ignore recid.
If I remove recid from Select, script executes without error........

 

Can you help me with that

 

Thanks
