Hi all,

I have a problem trying to insert into a column with data type as bigint and any help is much appreciated.

Database: Sybase

The error I get from the database is this:

Couldn't prepare statement: Server message number=257 severity=16 state=1 line=0 server=DEVEL1 procedure=DBD3 text=Implicit conversion from datatype 'VARCHAR' to 'BIGINT' is not allowed. Use the CONVERT function to run this query.

token_id column is a bigint data type

The conflicting line is where binding parameter 7

The code looks like this:

 
    my $insert_sth = "INSERT INTO some_table 
    (transaction_id, ccn_masked, cardholder_name, exp_month, exp_year,
+ card_type, token_id ) 
    VALUES(?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ? )"; 

my $q_result = $dbh->prepare($insert_sth) or die "Couldn't prepare sta
+tement: " . $dbh->errstr;    

$q_result->bind_param(1, $txId, { TYPE => SQL_INTEGER } );
    $q_result->bind_param(2, $add_data{'maskedccn'});
    $q_result->bind_param(3, getCardholderName($self));
    $q_result->bind_param(4, getExpMonth($self), { TYPE => SQL_INTEGER
+ });
    $q_result->bind_param(5, getExpYear($self), { TYPE => SQL_INTEGER 
+});
    $q_result->bind_param(6, getCardType($self));
    $q_result->bind_param(7, 5114780000000000271, { TYPE => SQL_BIGINT
+ } );

$q_result->execute()or die "Couldn't prepare statement: " . $dbh->errs
+tr;
