PostGIS Geometry saving: “Invalid endian flag value encountered.”

Question

I have a Spring Roo + Hibernate project which takes a JTS well-known text (WKT) String input from the client application, converts it into a JTS Geometry object, and then at

Answer 1

The solution seems to be the following:
@Column to map the field to the desired column with JPA annotations
@Type to specify the Hibernate mapping with the dialect.

@Column(columnDefinition = "Geometry", nullable = true) 
@Type(type = "org.hibernate.spatial.GeometryType")
public Point centerPoint;

You could add the Hibernate property inside the hibernate.cfg.xml file to see the db request and try to catch the string-encoded problem with a text based editor like Notepad++ with "UTF-8"/"ANSI"/"other charsets"

true
true
true

To add the hibernate properties you will have an hibernate.cfg.xml file with the following stuff. Don't copy/paste it because it is MySQL oriented. Just look where I have inserted the properties I evocated previously.

 
 
 
      
           true
           com.mysql.jdbc.Driver
           db-password
           jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/db-name
           db-username
           pojo
           org.hibernate.dialect.MySQL5InnoDBDialect
           true
           false
           **true**
           false

           
           

      
 

Another way to log all sql is to add package specific properties inside a log4j.properties file:

log4j.logger.org.hibernate.SQL=DEBUG
log4j.logger.org.hibernate.type=TRACE

Good luck!
