Hi , Error in Jsp page is as "NumberFormatException.forInputString(Unknown Source)"

Hi,

I am getting the following error "NumberFormatException.forInputString(Unknown Source)" in a JSP page.The Error is shown in the Integer.parseInt.
i.e.
<% b1=Integer.parseInt(request.getParameter("a1")); %>
<% b2=Integer.parseInt(request.getParameter("a2")); %>


Code:-

<%@page import="javax.servlet.*"%>
<%@page import="javax.servlet.http.*" %>
<%@page import="java.sql.*" %>
<%! Connection con; %>
<%! Statement st; %>
<%! ResultSet rs; %>
<% int b1,b2,b11,b22,z=0; %>
<% b1=Integer.parseInt(request.getParameter("a1")); %>
<% b2=Integer.parseInt(request.getParameter("a2")); %>


please help me with this.

what is request.getParameter("a1") and request.getParameter("a2") returning? Make sure it does not return null and any value which can't be converted to number.

Both the parameters "a1" and "a2" are used for table bank account number and balance from the table "bank" where they data type is intger/number.

request.getParameter method returns the value submitted through any html/jsp page, it has got nothing to do with database.

the request is been submitted here is from jsp page and the value which i am giving is account no. like 9841234345 and deposit number like 66.

9841234345 is causing the problem, its exceeding the range of int data type, so instead of storing it in int, store it in long, that might solve your problem, I assume that field a1 is returning this value so your code should be

Code:

---

<% int b2,b11,b22,z=0; %>
<% long b1%>
<% b1=Long.parseLong(request.getParameter("a1")); %>
<% b2=Integer.parseInt(request.getParameter("a2")); %>

Hi,
This is the full page code ... the exception problem is solved but i am not getting the desired output as "Account Updated."

<%@page import="javax.servlet.*"%>
<%@page import="javax.servlet.http.*" %>
<%@page import="java.sql.*" %>
<%! Connection con; %>
<%! Statement st; %>
<%! ResultSet rs; %>
<% int b2,b11,b22,z=0;
Long b1;%>
<% b1=Long.parseLong(request.getParameter("a1")); %>
<% b2=Integer.parseInt(request.getParameter("a2")); %>
<% Class.forName("oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver"); %>
<% con=DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:oracle:thin: @HDCHNVETA22270:1521:devdb","system","view123");
st=con.createStatement();
rs=st.executeQuery("select * from bank");
try{
while(rs.next()){

b11=rs.getInt(2);

if(b11==b1)
{
b22=rs.getInt(3);
int s3=b22+b2;
int k=st.executeUpdate("update bank set bal="+s3+" where accno="+b1+"");
out.println("Account Updated.");
}
else
z=1;
}
if(z==1)

out.println("Account number does not exist");

}
catch(Exception e){
System.out.print(e);

}


%>

Can you tell me the complete structure of the bank table, you are probably making the things bit more complicated.

If I got your requirement properly you are updating the balance based on any given account number, if that is the case the following code should work

Code:

---

<%@page import="javax.servlet.*"%>
<%@page import="javax.servlet.http.*" %>
<%@page import="java.sql.*" %>
<%! Connection con; %>
<%! Statement st1; %>
<%! Statement st2; %>
<%! ResultSet rs; %>
<% int b2,b11,b22,z=0;
Long b1;%>

<% b1=Long.parseLong(request.getParameter("a1")); %>
<% b2=Integer.parseInt(request.getParameter("a2")); %>
<% Class.forName("oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver"); %>
<% con=DriverManager.getConnection("jdbcracle:thin: @HDCHNVETA22270:1521:devdb","system","view123");
st=con.createStatement();
rs=st.executeQuery("select * from bank where accno="+b1);
try{
  if(rs.next()){
      b22=rs.getInt(3);
      int amountToUpdate=b22+b2;
      st1=con.createStatement();
      int updateCount=st1.executeUpdate("update bank set bal="+amountToUpdate+" where accno="+b1);
      if(updateCount>=1){
        out.println("Account Updated");
      }
      else{
        out.println("Failed To Update Account");
      }
     
  }
  else{
      out.println("No matching account number found in database");
  }
  }
  catch(Exception e){
  }
%>

However writing java codes inside jsp is not very recommended, we should write the java codes in side java classes and invoke those classes from jsp. jsp should just be used for the presentation logic.

Thks for the help the problem is solved
