Invalid relational operator in rawsql, same statement works in sqldeveloper

Question

This statement works perfectly when beeing executed in SQLDeveloper(Oracle DB).

select id,name,street,post_code,town,phone_number,web_site,email,short_description,    
description, latitude,longitude,external_id,facebook_page_id 
FROM poi WHERE ( 6371 * acos( cos( radians( 5 ) ) * cos( radians( latitude ) ) * cos(    
radians( longitude ) - radians( 3 ) ) + sin( radians( 5 ) ) * sin( radians( latitude ) ) ) ) <= 1000000 ; 

If i execute it via a java query:

if (requestedDistance) {
String raw = "SELECT         
id,name,street,post_code,town,phone_number,web_site,email,short_description, description,             
latitude,longitude,external_id,facebook_page_id"
+ " FROM poi WHERE ( 6371 * acos( cos( radians( "
+ posLatitude.toString()
+ " ) ) * cos("
+ " radians( latitude ) ) * cos( radians( longitude ) -"
+ " radians( "
+ posLongitude.toString()
+ " ) ) + sin( radians( "
+ posLatitude.toString()
+ " ) ) * sin( radians( latitude"
+ " ) ) ) ) <= "
+ thresholdDistance.toString() + " ;";

the following exception is appearing in the logs:

    at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:679) Caused by: javax.persistence.PersistenceException: Query threw

copying the statement from the logfile and executing it in sqldeveloper again returns a valid output..

thanks for every help!

Remove the ; at the end - it's the terminator character of SQLDeveloper/SQLPlus, not a part of SQL syntax.
