Good check, Kris, but I did have the EL notation. I stripped my query down (it got big with joins) to a "SELECT * FROM DEFECT". I still get an "invalid column exception". The query runs fine in Oracle's SQL*Plus.
I wrote a simple JSP a while back that lets me type an ad-hoc query into an HTML text area and displays the results in a table. It's been helpful for testing connections and data source set-ups. I can type "SELECT * FROM DEFECT" into that JSP and get a table result back. What does all this tell me? I must need more coffee, because I'm still not seeing what I've missed. Gotta be a bonehead problem. --- Kris Schneider <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Are you using: > > <sql:dateParam value="sinceReportDate" type="date"/> > > instead of: > > <sql:dateParam value="${sinceReportDate}" > type="date"/> > > Quoting Michael Duffy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > > > > > I've got a question that will turn out to be > simple, > > but I'm not seeing it. > > > > I'm writing an SQL query that has a date > parameter, so > > I'm using the <sql:dateParam> tag nested > underneath my > > <sql:query> tag, with the type="date" attribute > set. > > > > "JSTL In Action" tells me that the value for > > <sql:dateParam> has to be a scoped variable of > type > > java.util.Date, so I've got a <jsp:useBean> tag > that > > declares one. > > > > The problem comes when I try to set the value of > the > > Date Bean.
