Getting AbstractMethodError when calling setBinaryStream

Depending on your jdbc driver version the following code can fail to run.

File file = new File("image.jpg");
InputStream in = new FileInputStream(file);
preparedStatment.setBinaryStream(1, in, file.length());

The error you will see is as follows.

java.lang.AbstractMethodError: com.mysql.jdbc.ServerPreparedStatement.setBinaryStream(ILjava/io/InputStream;J)V

To fix this problem you need to change the call to setBinaryStream so the last parameter is passed as an integer instead of a long.

File file = new File("image.jpg");
InputStream in = new FileInputStream(file);
preparedStatment.setBinaryStream(1, in, (int) file.length());
