Hi!

I've just upgraded to 4.2 and find that a DatabaseExampleSource that worked fine under 4.1 now produces the following error..

P Jul 16, 2008 2:43:53 PM: [Fatal] UserError occured in 1st application of DatabaseExampleSource  (DatabaseExampleSource)
P Jul 16, 2008 2:43:53 PM: [Fatal] Process failed: Database error occured: The fetch size cannot be negative.

Furthermore if I use the configuration wizard no tables get picked up. I've tried both the MS and JTDS  SQL drivers and get the same result. Does anybody know what causes this behaviour?

    Which database are you using?

    I hit the same problem with PostgreSQL today. Obviously, a MySQL specific hack leaked into the DatabaseHandler class. The fetch size is set to Integer.MIN_VALUE unconditionally. However, this is a very MySQL specific way to tell the JDBC driver not to fetch the entire result set and I would suspect DatabaseExampleSource to break on anything but MySQL.

    Hi Aix,

    I'm using MS SQL 2005  :( All very strange...

    Yip. This accidentally slipped in - working on MySQL most of our time and somebody (probably myself) accidentally checked in this hack. We are currently working on a workaround and will release it as soon as possible. Sorry for the inconvenience.

    Cheers,

    Hi,

    we just exchanged the files of the 4.2 release. Please download the release again from SourceForge (links are available on our web site - just use the normal download links).

    Sorry again for the inconvenience.

    Cheers,
    Ingo
