I'm trying execute following query:

String query = "select entity, entity.id from Site entity";
List resultList = entityManager.createQuery(query).getResultList();

And take exception:

Answer 1

Your data types are mismatched when you are retrieving the field values. Check your code and ensure that for each field that you are retrieving that the java object matches that type. For example, retrieving a date into and int. If you are doing a select * then it is possible a change in the fields of the table has happened causing this error to occur. Your SQL should only select the fields you specifically want in order to avoid this error.

Hope this helps.
