I will look into this and try to find a solution.

One option might be to put this in, but commented out so it is just an example

in the entity engine, though I can't remember where it is right now.

For the record, I have finally fixed it by adding the following two converters:

   public static class OracleTIMESTAMPToTimestamp extends 
AbstractConverter<oracle.sql.TIMESTAMP, java.sql.Timestamp> {
       public OracleTIMESTAMPToTimestamp() {
           super(oracle.sql.TIMESTAMP.class, java.sql.Timestamp.class);
       }
       public java.sql.Timestamp convert(oracle.sql.TIMESTAMP obj) throws 
ConversionException {
           try {
               return obj.timestampValue();
           } catch (Exception e) {
               throw new ConversionException(e);
           }
       }
   }

   public static class SqlDateToTime extends AbstractConverter<java.sql.Date, 
java.sql.Time> {
       public SqlDateToTime() {
           super(java.sql.Date.class, java.sql.Time.class);
       }
       public java.sql.Time convert(java.sql.Date obj) throws 
ConversionException {
           return new java.sql.Time(obj.getTime());
       }
   }

However it is a bit annoying since it was working before... also I don't know 
if (and how) this code can be contributed back: the first converter needs the 
oracle driver in the classpath to compile.

Hi Jacopo:
Don't know about the converter framework...I seem to remember that Oracle 
changed the name of the SQL TIMESTAMP object for more recent versions (9x or 
10i or something like that). So maybe the OFBiz converter is looking for the 
TIMESTAMP object in the wrong place or calling it by a name that doesn't exist 
anymore. I may have had to change the converter as well. Or maybe I'm just 
confusing all this with the Oracle CLOB modifications I had to make...

It was a while ago when I ran into this. Anyhow, I do seem to recall there was 
some discussion about this on the Oracle developer's forum at the time.

Regards,
Ruth

Thank you Ruth, I will investigate more but... but my guess is that this error 
is related to the recent changes for the  Converter framework... in fact this 
error is happening after the OFBiz upgrade to the trunk.

Hey Jacopo:
I had a similar problem about 9 months ago...depends on the version of Oracle. 
But if I remember correctly, you may need to find an Oracle jar file that 
supports the TIMESTAMP object and add it to the classpath.

I don't have access to that OFBiz instance anymore so I can't verify what I 
did...but I think that was the solution. FYI - there was a similar problem with 
ORACLE CLOBs.

Anyhow, hope that helps.

I am getting the following error trying to load seed data in the trunk using an

Any hints on how to fix this?
