SQLGrammarException: could not execute query

Question

I am using Struts2 & Hibernate and getting below error when I searched data with string test but works for me when I searched with numeric 111.

Answer 1

Your hql to sql converted query is generating:

    "where employeeName=Name" 

while it should be generating:

    "where employeeName='Name'".

So your hql should be :

    "where b.employeeName= ' " +empName+ " ' "; 

Note : You don't need to do that for integer values, only applies to String variables.
