Why do I get org.hibernate.HibernateException: IOException occurred reading a binary value


I found this exception in my logs I have never seen it before, Im using Hibernate 4.1.7

Does this indicate that my database is corrupted , or this a bug in Hibernate. I found a reference to this error at http://lists.jboss.org/pipermail/hibernate-issues/2010-November/026487.html but this referred to a much earlier version of hibernate and was fixed for Hibernate 4.0

Solution

  • Let's start from the Hibernate's doc:

    @Lob indicates that the property should be persisted in a Blob or a Clob depending on the property type: java.sql.Clob, Character[], char[] and java.lang.String will be persisted in a Clob. java.sql.Blob, Byte[], byte[] and serializable type will be persisted in a Blob.

    For example:

    @Lob
    public String getFullText() {
        return fullText;
    }
    
    @Lob 
    public byte[] getFullCode() {
        return fullCode;
    }
    

    Knowing this, it could mean that the object is not in the database. Maybe it was deleted from the table but in a referenced table didn't. Let's say that from the table Blobs, the blob with id 5 were deleted, but in the table users_blobs it is stille referenced like:

    | user_id | blob_id|
    |    4    |    5   | //This entry blob were delete but is still referenced by that table
    |    5    |    2   | 
    

    If that's the case, you should redefine your users_blobs (for example) constraints so it will be deleted or put null if blob is deleted.
