OpenJPA query fails second time (possibly because

Question

I have following OpenJPA query (over db2 database):

Select number from Number number where number.uuid = :uuid

Column uuid defined as VARCHAR FOR BIT DATA(16). In entity it represented as byte[] type field.

The problem is that when I call method with that query first time(after WebSphere server is up) it works fine. Consequential calls result in error (I even enabled trace log see where the error is)

1st time:> query is running, everything's ok

Check the query syntax for correctness. See nested exception for details.

This is nested exception:

Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException

This is code that falls with exception:

public String findByUUID(UUID uuid) {

    TypedQuery<Number> query = em.createQuery("Select n from Number n where n.uuid = :uuid", Number.class);
    ByteBuffer bb = ByteBuffer.allocate(16);
    bb.putLong(uuid.getMostSignificantBits());
    bb.putLong(uuid.getLeastSignificantBits());
    byte[] parameter = bb.array();

    query.setParameter("uuid", parameter);

    List<Number> result = new ArrayList<Number>(query.getResultList());
    return result;
}

*additional info: If I drop BIT DATA from column description - I get another error :

nested exception is: javax.ejb.EJBException: See nested exception; nested exception is: org.apache.openjpa.persistence.PersistenceException: The value of input variable, expression or parameter number "1" cannot be used because of its data type..

SQLCODE=-301, SQLSTATE=07006, DRIVER=4.14.113 FailedObject: Select n from Number n where n.uuid = :uuid [java.lang.String]

I learned it from looking at source of openJPA but it doesn't help me meanwhile.

Try to disable the prepared query cache. It's known to be quite buggy. You can search the OpenJPA JIRA to find details if you want.

<property name="openjpa.jdbc.QuerySQLCache" value="true(EnableStatistics=true)">
