I'm running Neo4j 2.0.1. together with the spatial plugin for 2.0.1. together with the JDBC driver for 2.0.1. I created a simple point layer and an index for doing a spacial query. If I type in the following query in the browser, the respective nodes are returned:
START n=node:geom('withinDistance:[15.0,60.0, 200.0]') RETURN n
I wrote a method in my servlet to send this query:
//connect to database
try {
if(connection == null || connection.isClosed())
{
Class.forName("org.neo4j.jdbc.Driver"); // load jdbc driver
connection = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:neo4j://localhost:7474");
}
} catch (SQLException e) {
System.out.println("could not connect do DB: <br>" + e.getCause()
+ "<br>" + e.getMessage());
} catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
System.out.println("Could not load JDBC DRIVER");
e.printStackTrace();
}
Then, I'm trying to send a request to the server:
@Path("findRange")
@GET
@Produces(MediaType.TEXT_HTML)
public String findRange(@QueryParam("lat") double lat,
@QueryParam("lon") double lon,
@QueryParam("d") double distance)
{
connectToDbIfNecessary();
try(PreparedStatement p = connection.prepareStatement(FIND_WITHIN_RANGE))
{
p.setObject(1, lat);
p.setObject(2, lon);
p.setObject(3, distance);
ResultSet rs = p.executeQuery();
return getServerResponse(rs);
} catch (SQLException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
return "failure during geospatial query:\n"+e.getErrorCode()+"<br>\n"+e.getMessage()+"<br>"+e.getCause();
}
}
The prepared statement I'm sending is:
private static final String FIND_WITHIN_RANGE = "START n=node:geom('withinDistance:[{1},{2}, {3}]') RETURN n";
When I execute this on my Tomcat 7.0.53, I get the following exception:
failure during geospatial query: 0 Error executing query START n=node:geom('withinDistance:[{1},{2}, {3}]') RETURN n with params {3=1.0E8, 2=60.5, 1=14.9} java.lang.RuntimeException: Error executing

When I'm executing the query by sending a http request manually to the URL specified in the docs, I don't get an exception. I have no idea why this exception occurs. Could anyone point me in the right direction?
EDIT: It seems like index queries cannot be parameterized. However, if I do it as suggested by Stefan Armbruster, a new exception occurs (maybe this is a further problem in the 0.12 spatial implementation).

This issue seems similar to this one here from the mid of 2013.
