A bit more stacktrace would help ...

You have used bif: here.  It needs a matching PREFIX .  There are no default 
prefixes in SPARQL.

(If you put newlines in queries, you get better error messages)

Which way are you creating the request?  If via QueryExecutionFactory, Jena 
parses the query before sending it to help check for errors.  Like missing 
prefix declarations :-)

If you are desperate, you can bypass this with a direct call to 
QueryEngineHTTP(service, queryString) but you are on your own at that point.
