The request sent by the client was syntactically incorrect.-Spring MVC + JDBC Template

by

I think the issue is that Spring doesn’t know how to deserialize the date your browser client sends when submitting the following input field in

<tr name="tstest">
    <td>Date Of Birth</td>
    <td><form:input path="dateOfBirth" name="timestamp" value=""/>
        <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/20616319/javascript:show_calendar("document.tstest.timestamp', document.tstest.timestamp.value);"><img src="../images/cal.gif" width="16" height="16" border="0" alt="Click Here to Pick up the timestamp"></a>
    </td>
</tr>

Spring doesn’t know how to take the value that you enter into that field and convert it into a Date object. You need to register a PropertyEditor for that. For example, add the following to your @Controller class

@InitBinder
public void initBinder(WebDataBinder binder) {
    SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("MM/dd/yyyy");
    sdf.setLenient(true);
    binder.registerCustomEditor(Date.class, new CustomDateEditor(sdf, true));
}

Obviously, change the SimpleDateFormat to whatever your client is sending.

On a related note, you’re sending a 302 response by sending a redirect

return "redirect:/full-reg";

Remember that request and model attributes only live for the duration of one request. So when your client send the request to full-reg, none of the form input parameters you sent originally exist any more. You should re-think how you do this.
