Hi Fabian, I tried running the same query programmatically and it returned the results with out any problems. And there are no special characters in the data..I tried running the query using ?debug=true and with out this and both ran fine. I am not sure why the SQL Clients are complaining.. In SLQ Client setting i have added the ?debug=true and here is the stack trace.. java.sql.SQLException: Method not implemented yet, sorry! at nl.cwi.monetdb.jdbc.MonetResultSet.getCharacterStream(MonetResultSet.java:294) at sun.reflect.GeneratedMethodAccessor35.invoke(Unknown Source) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:25) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:585) at com.quantum.util.proxy.ProxyFactory$InvocationHandlerImpl.invoke(ProxyFactory.java:37) at $Proxy3.getCharacterStream(Unknown Source) at com.quantum.sql.SQLStandardResultSetResults.getStringFromCharacterSteam(SQLStandardResultSetResults.java:250) at com.quantum.sql.SQLStandardResultSetResults.parseResultSet(SQLStandardResultSetResults.java:147) at com.quantum.sql.SQLStandardResultSetResults.create(SQLStandardResultSetResults.java:69) at com.quantum.sql.MultiSQLServer.execute(MultiSQLServer.java:139) at com.quantum.sql.MultiSQLServer.execute(MultiSQLServer.java:91) at com.quantum.actions.BaseExecuteAction.getSQLResults(BaseExecuteAction.java:202) at com.quantum.actions.BaseExecuteAction.execute(BaseExecuteAction.java:174) at com.quantum.actions.ExecuteAction.execute(ExecuteAction.java:98) at com.quantum.actions.BaseExecuteAction.execute(BaseExecuteAction.java:125) at com.quantum.actions.BaseExecuteAction.run(BaseExecuteAction.java:111) at org.eclipse.ui.actions.BaseSelectionListenerAction.runWithEvent(BaseSelectionListenerAction.java:168) at org.eclipse.jface.action.ActionContributionItem.handleWidgetSelection(ActionContributionItem.java:545) at org.eclipse.jface.action.ActionContributionItem.access$2(ActionContributionItem.java:490) at org.eclipse.jface.action.ActionContributionItem$6.handleEvent(ActionContributionItem.java:443) at org.eclipse.swt.widgets.EventTable.sendEvent(EventTable.java:66) at org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Widget.sendEvent(Widget.java:1101) at org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Display.runDeferredEvents(Display.java:3319) at org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Display.readAndDispatch(Display.java:2971) at org.eclipse.ui.internal.Workbench.runEventLoop(Workbench.java:2389) at org.eclipse.ui.internal.Workbench.runUI(Workbench.java:2353) at org.eclipse.ui.internal.Workbench.access$4(Workbench.java:2219) at org.eclipse.ui.internal.Workbench$4.run(Workbench.java:466) at org.eclipse.core.databinding.observable.Realm.runWithDefault(Realm.java:289) at org.eclipse.ui.internal.Workbench.createAndRunWorkbench(Workbench.java:461) at org.eclipse.ui.PlatformUI.createAndRunWorkbench(PlatformUI.java:149) at org.eclipse.ui.internal.ide.application.IDEApplication.start(IDEApplication.java:106) at org.eclipse.equinox.internal.app.EclipseAppHandle.run(EclipseAppHandle.java:153) at org.eclipse.core.runtime.internal.adaptor.EclipseAppLauncher.runApplication(EclipseAppLauncher.java:106) at org.eclipse.core.runtime.internal.adaptor.EclipseAppLauncher.start(EclipseAppLauncher.java:76) at org.eclipse.core.runtime.adaptor.EclipseStarter.run(EclipseStarter.java:363) at org.eclipse.core.runtime.adaptor.EclipseStarter.run(EclipseStarter.java:176) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:39) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:25) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:585) at org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.Main.invokeFramework(Main.java:504) at org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.Main.basicRun(Main.java:443) at org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.Main.run(Main.java:1169) thanks sateesh Fabian Groffen wrote:

Hi All,

When i try to fetch data from a table some times i am getting this error:

It seems it has some thing to do with the type of characters that are being inserted.

I am wondering why it didn't threw any exception while inserting but throwing the excep when trying to retrieve !!

I hope this is not because of the sql client i am using..I tried using Squrriel and QuantumDB plugin of Eclipse.

Here is the Stack Trace

Error Executing: select * from dpa.collection_info:java.sql.SQLException: protocol violation: unexpected line in data block: . java.sql.SQLException: protocol violation: unexpected line in data block: .

Could you please add ?debug=true to your JDBC connection URL, and then attach the monet_125324563278468723.log?

This is the log file we receive when attempting to display the contents of tables using Squirrel SQL, or any number of other clients using the JDBC driver. The error message is Error: protocol violation: unexpected line in data block: In one of the columns, for some INSERTs we store bytes and for other INSERTs, into the same column, we store characters. The column is of type VARCHAR. Is this the issue? Thanks On Monday 11 February 2008 14:51:42 Fabian Groffen wrote:

I'm sorry, but does this log belong to the "Sorry not implemented!" exception, or to the "Protocol violation!" exception? I think this one belongs to the "not implemented" one, which is a feature request. Your original message indicated a bug, which I'd like to examine more closely.

No idea, I think I found your issue though: (removed lots of data to make it readable)

RD 1202760166421: inserting prompt

16 != (14 or 37) so JDBC gets confused by getting more rows than it expects. It could be clearer here in the error message, but I'm not sure where it ends up here, it might complain about seeing the prompt after reading line 15 and 16, in which case the error message is correct.

Niels, any idea on how this can happen (sending more rows than the header says)? I have no idea. What is the query which gives this problematic output.

Niels

PS. This is a BUG.

The previous log file was the output when the above query was passed by the client.
