DBI Exception: DBD::Pg::st execute failed: ERROR:  could not determine
data type of parameter $2 [for Statement "insert into Jobs_Solleciti

this error was first for following statement:

my $sth = $dbh->prepare(q(insert into Jobs_Solleciti (sollecito,
state_description, email_utente) values (?,xmlelement(name
description, ?),?)));

$sth->execute($sollecito->id, $descrizione_stato, $email_utente);

Then I've exchange last with:

            $sth->bind_param(1, $sollecito->id);
            $sth->bind_param(2, $descrizione_stato, {PG_TYPE=>'PG_XML'});
            $sth->bind_param(3, $email_utente);
            $sth->execute();

without success
and again:

-           $sth->bind_param(2, $descrizione_stato, {PG_TYPE=>'PG_XML'});
+           $sth->bind_param(2, $descrizione_stato, {PG_TYPE=>'PG_TEXT'});

but without success too.

Have you hint?

Thank you in advance,             \ferz
