  • To check the version of the current JAR file that you are using, refer to PostgreSQL's latest versions.

  • To know the JAR file that is in use, follow these steps:

    1. Open the JAR file using a ZIP utility or a JAR viewer tool.

    2. Look for the META-INF/MANIFEST.MF file in the JAR and check the version.

You will not be impacted if you provide your own custom driver. 

Do I need to reconfigure my accounts?

No, you do not have to reconfigure your account settings or drivers; the account can remain as-is to work with the latest driver. However, if you currently use the default version and want to revert to the previous version behavior, we recommend you use the postgres 9.4.1207.jar.

We recommend you investigate your pipelines and check the Snaps downstream of PostgreSQL snaps for any of the affected scenarios. Update any dependencies that the downstream Snaps might have with respect to the changing error and outputs (especially in expressions) to conform to the new expected errors and outputs. Learn more about the change in errors and outputs for the new (v42.7.2) JDBC driver.

How do you override the behavior changes?

PostgreSQL Snaps

Scenario

Error/Output from the Old old (v9.4.1207) JDBC Driver

Error/Output from the new (v42.7.2 (Java 8)) JDBC Driver

PostgreSQL-Execute

When you provide multiple statements in the SQL Statement field, the Snap fails.

Status: 0

Output message: Success

Status: -3

Error message: Batch operation failed

PostgreSQL-Select

PostgreSQL-Lookup

PostgreSQL-Execute

Table columns of the Array type now output the data as a list instead of a string.

Output messageas a string:

{id=1, ar_chararray_col_value={a, b, c}}

 

 

Output message is now in an array:

{id=1,ar_chararray_col_value=[a, b, c]}

PostgreSQL-Delete

PostgreSQL-Execute

PostgreSQL-Insert

PostgreSQL-Update

When the input value provided for a column is invalid for the column type.

Error Message: SQL operation failed

Reason: ERROR: invalid input syntax for type "DataType": "Invalid input" Position: <number>, error code: 0, SQL state: 22007

 

Error Message: Batch operation failed

Reason: Batch entry 0 <query> was aborted: ERROR: invalid input syntax for type 'Col DataType' : "invalid input" Position: <number> Call getNextException to see other errors in the batch., error code: 0, SQL state: 22007, next exception: ERROR: invalid input syntax for type 'Col DataType': "invalid input" Position: <number>

PostgreSQL-Select

 

When the metadata is returned from the Snap’s second output view.

The original number of columns in the input data is displayed in the output.

In Select Snap, the second output view, some new columns are introduced.
For example, IS_GENERATEDCOLUMN , REF_GENERATION, SELF_REFERENCING_COL_NAME, TYPE_CAT, TYPE_NAME, TYPE_SCHEM

PostgreSQL-Delete

 

When the delete condition has an unterminated quote string.

Error message: SQL operation failed
Reason : ERROR: unterminated quoted string at or near "' )"\n Position: <number>, error code: 0, SQL state: 42601

Error message: SQL operation failed
Reason: "SQL [<query>]; Unterminated string literal started at position <number> in SQL delete from "public"."av_cities" where (city = ' sun ' ' )<query>. Expected char"

PostgreSQL-Execute

When you provide the following query:

"create table <name> as <query>"

Status : 0
Message : Success

Status: Number 5
The <number> for Status indicates the number of rows that were pulled used from the source result set to create the new table.
Message: Success

All PostgreSQL Snaps

When the Dynamic Account has incorrect credentials.

Error : SQL operation failed
Reason : "java.lang.RuntimeException: Driver org.postgresql.Driver claims to not accept jdbcUrl, jdbc:postgresql://??postgresql-v10.nia.snaplogic.com:5432/snapteam?OpenSourceSubProtocolOverride=true, Driver org.postgresql.Driver claims to not accept jdbcUrl, jdbc:postgresql://??postgresql-v10.nia.snaplogic.com:5432/snapteam?OpenSourceSubProtocolOverride=true"
