Grails and Quartz: Bad value for type long

Question

I'm trying to save quartz jobs into the database. I've set up the tables, created quartz.properties files, but when I try to run the app, this exception shows up:

Application context shutting down...
Application context shutdown.

I don't have any idea on where the actual problem is. The code is alright and running when the jobs weren't saved in the database.

Answer 1

In your grails-app/conf/quartz.properties, replace

org.quartz.jobStore.driverDelegateClass = org.quartz.impl.jdbcjobstore.StdJDBCDelegate

with

org.quartz.jobStore.driverDelegateClass = org.quartz.impl.jdbcjobstore.PostgreSQLDelegate

I'm getting the same error even using the correct delegate, so no promises.

Answer 2

For spring boot, you can also specify the PG driver using the following property in application.properties -

spring.quartz.properties.org.quartz.jobStore.driverDelegateClass=org.quartz.impl.jdbcjobstore.PostgreSQLDelegate
