I also got this type error  problem is wrong usage of parameters to statement like  Let s say  you have a query like this  SELECT   FROM EMPLOYE E WHERE E ID       and for the preparedStatement object  JDBC  if you set the parameters like  preparedStatement setXXX 1 value   preparedStatement setXXX 2 value    then it  results  in       SQLException  Invalid column index  So  I removed that second parameter setting to prepared statement then problem solved

I had the exact same problem when using Spring Security 3 1 0  and Oracle 11G   I was using the following query and getting the invalid column index error    lt security jdbc-user-service data-source-ref  dataSource                  users-by-username-query  SELECT A user name AS username  A password AS password FROM MB REG USER A where A user name lower       It turns out that I needed to add   1 as enabled  to the query     lt security jdbc-user-service data-source-ref  dataSource  users-by-username query  SELECT A user name AS username  A password AS password  1 as enabled FROM MB REG USER A where A user name lower       Everything worked after that   I believe this could be a bug in the Spring JDBC core package

If that s a SQLException thrown by Java  it s most likely because you are trying to get or set a value from a ResultSet  but the index you are using isn t within the range    For example  you might be trying to get the column at index 3 from the result set  but you only have two columns being returned from the SQL query

the final sql statement is something like   select col 1 from table X where col 2    abcd     i run this inside my SQL IDE and everything is ok   Next  i try to build this statement with java   String queryString   select col 1 from table X where col 2          PreparedStatement stmt   con prepareStatement queryString   stmt setString 1   abcd      raises java sql SQLException  Invalid column index   Although the sql statement  the first one  ran against the database  contains quotes around string values  and also finishes with a semicolumn  the string that i pass to the PreparedStatement should not contain quotes around the wildcard character    nor should it finish with semicolumn   i just removed the characters that appear on white background   select col 1 from table X where col 2               to obtain    select col 1 from table X where col 2          i found the solution here  https   coderanch com t 424689 databases java-sql-SQLException-Invalid-column

It sounds like you re trying to SELECT a column that doesn t exist    Perhaps you re trying to ORDER BY a column that doesn t exist   Any typos in your SQL statement
