Thank you, Knut, for your prompt response. It seems that my caching of Prepared Statements is causing some problems. In some previous responses, it was indicated that Derby is caching them internally anyway, so maybe a better approach for me is not to cache them on my side and create them anew? Most of my inserts/updates are done in batches, so I could create a PrepStmt before the batch and remove a reference to it at the end of the batch's execution. If the performance penalty for compilation of PrepStmt is not that great, then such approach may be more desirable to avoid errors in the production environment.

The error means that one of the database files (table or index) cannot be found. It typically happens because some DDL operation (for example DROP INDEX, TRUNCATE TABLE or SYSCS_COMPRESS_TABLE) has removed the file, and an already compiled statement still references it. The error indicates a bug in Derby, so if you find a way to reproduce it, or some pattern that seems to increase the likelihood of the error, please file a bug report. Derby should invalidate already compiled statement referencing the table when DDL is performed on it, and that should make the statement recompile automatically the next time it is executed. There have been bugs in that area, though. (We fixed some of them in 10.9.1.0, in case you haven't already upgraded.) One possible workaround in that case is to call the SYSCS_UTIL.SYSCS_EMPTY_STATEMENT_CACHE procedure to remove the stale query plans from the statement cache. -- Knut Anders Jefferies archives and monitors outgoing and incoming e-mail.
