getting java.sql.SQLSyntaxErrorException: ORA-00936: missing expression error - java

I'm using JDBC to connect to the Oracle database and ask how many methods are in the String class. I keep getting the following error:
Exception in thread "main" java.sql.SQLSyntaxErrorException: ORA-00936: missing expression
at the following line:
ResultSet res1 = stmt.executeQuery("SELECT (Distinct method_name) FROM all_java_method WHERE name LIKE 'String' Order BY method_name");
I don't have a ton of experience with SQL yet so any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Substitute (Distinct method_name) with Distinct method_name because that is the correct syntax for the SELECT
Also, you need to substitute 'String' with 'String%' or '%String%' (depends on what exactly are you wanna fetch, I don't know java, so...), otherwise it is logicaly become equal to name = 'String'

ERROR: column reference "key" is ambiguous

Seems I'm rusty at my sql and could use some help.
I'm running into an issue on the search query below:
SELECT COUNT(1) as totalITCount FROM it_table
JOIN i_table on i_table.key = it_table.item_key
WHERE
(key IN (select item_key from it_table where LOWER(it_table.resolution_feild) LIKE ? OR it_table.resolution_field = '' group by item_key) )
and the error coming from the operation is:
nested exception is org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: ERROR: column reference "key" is ambiguous.
I'm not sure what this means. I have another field present in both tables and in that case I "oddly" DON'T see this error. I'd think if anything having a field in two places would make the operation ambiguous, so I'm even more confused.
Thoughts?
Last line references key without specifying table.
(key IN....
should either be
(i_table.key IN....
or
(it_table.key IN....

Error while creating SQL query with bind variables - JDBCTemplate in Spring

I am very beginner to Spring - JDBC .
I am trying to retrieve the employee_id from a table using the query having bind variables and also with IN condition in it .
I'm getting SQLException that
" invalid column type" - Caused by:
org.springframework.jdbc.UncategorizedSQLException:
PreparedStatementCallback; uncategorized SQLException for SQL [select
employee_id from table_employee where age=:varTwo and marks in
(:varOne) and name =:varThree]; SQL state [99999]; error code [17004];
Invalid column type; nested exception is java.sql.SQLException:
Invalid column type
Can you please tell , where I'm wrong .
I have tried using the types as Long , Integer , String but still i'm getting "invalid column type"
age is - NUMBER
marks is - NUMBER
name is - VARCHAR
MapSqlParameterSource parameters = new MapSqlParameterSource();
parameters.addValue("varOne", varOne);
parameters.addValue("varTwo", Long.parseLong(varTwo));
parameters.addValue("varThree", varThree);
Long employeeId = jdbcTemplate.queryForObject("select employee_id from table_employee where age=:varTwo and marks in (:varOne) and name =:varThree" , Long.class , parameters);
I should be getting the result of this SQL as the "employee id".
I think the type of varOne may be Collection.
When you want to use a variable in SQL query especially with IN, you should make sure the variable is a correct type.
Thanks for your responses. I was able to proceed further by making the list to string using join method.

SQL Exception: ORA-00936: missing expression

I am running following query:
my query = insert into tbl_name (ID,name, address,...)" +" values (?,?,?)
then I am using query runner class to insert.
myQueryRunnerObj.insert("my query",
result set handler obj,
generated id,
'my name',
'my address',...);
After this I am getting following exception: Exception in thread "main" java.sql.SQLException: ORA-00936: missing expression and sometimes invalid number of arguments expecting 11 given 10
What could be the reason to get this exception?
Correct syntax is:
INSERT INTO dept (deptno, dname) VALUES (dept_seq.nextval, 1);
or
INSERT INTO dept (deptno, dname)
SELECT dept_seq.nextval, 2
FROM dual;
ORA-00936: missing expression
Cause: A required part of a clause or expression has been omitted. For example, a SELECT statement may have been entered without a list of columns or expressions or with an incomplete expression. This message is also issued in cases where a reserved word is misused, as in SELECT TABLE.
Action: Check the statement syntax and specify the missing component.

springframework.jdbc.UncategorizedSQLException :Invalid column type-

Hi am trying to do a QueryForInt using spring jbdc.The query returns a simple count.On execution i get springframework.jdbc.UncategorizedSQLException:java.sql.SQLException: Invalid column type.
I did find similar posts and tried the suggestions but i am still stuck:(...
Any help is appreciated.
MapSqlParameterSource params = new MapSqlParameterSource();
params.addValue(DAOConstants.PROD_ID, custVo.getProdId(),OracleTypes.NUMBER);
params.addValue(DAOConstants.REQ_IND, DAOConstants.FLAG_Y,OracleTypes.VARCHAR);
The query:
select count(1) from prod where prod_id = :PROD_ID and req_ind =:REQ_IND
Table definition
Name Null Type

PROD_ID NOT NULL NUMBER(5)
REQ_IND VARCHAR2(10)

Based on the stacktrace it looks like you are using the JdbcTemplate class. Since you are using the named parameter style place holders and providing a MapSqlParameterSource for the parameters you need to use the NamedParameterJdbcTemplate.
So, why are you getting this strange error message? Well, your SQL query actually works using the Oracle JDBC driver. It does allow you to use either "?" or a named parameter style using a ":" as the prefix fro the placeholders. You still need to provide the parameter values in the correct order which the MapSqlParameterSource in your case does not. You can test this by using an Object array instead like:
new Object[] {custVo.getProdId(), DAOConstants.FLAG_Y}
The error is based on the values coming in the wrong order from the params.getValues() method, with the String value being passed in for the :PROD_ID.

Issue in DB2 or Java - Handling CLOB data type

I need to pull comma-separated values from DB2 exactly as in this question, so after quick googling I found the solution by using following functions in my select clause:
SUBSTR(XMLCAST(XMLGROUP(', ' || col_1 AS C ORDER BY col_1) AS clob), 3) AS RES_COL
Now, the output returned is CLOB and not VARCHAR. I tried by increasing VARCHAR limit, but it was giving CAST error. Now, I am getting following exception while reading this CLOB column in JAVA.
SQL state [HY000]; error code [0]; [BEA][DB2 JDBC Driver]SQLDIAGGRP was specified and not null.; nested exception is java.sql.SQLException: [BEA][DB2 JDBC Driver]SQLDIAGGRP was specified and not null.

at org.springframework.jdbc.core.JdbcTemplate.execute(JdbcTemplate.java:407)
at org.springframework.jdbc.core.JdbcTemplate.query(JdbcTemplate.java:458)
I am not able to find any help regarding what this exception means exactly? What I understand is it is related to JDBC Driver, but can someone explain more on this?
Otherwise, Can DB2 experts tell me how to return VARCHAR instead of CLOB, so that JAVA does not complain when queried?
I was able to resolve this issue by using CAST and TRIM DB2 functions over XMLCAST output. Now I am able to return VARCHAR from the query and JAVA code is working fine too.
SUBSTR(TRIM(CAST(XMLCAST(XMLGROUP(', ' || col_1 AS C ORDER BY col_1) AS clob) AS VARCHAR(4096))), 3) AS RES_COL
