We had that same error. I don¹t think it is your BLOB that is causing the
problem but how Oracle changed its default behavior on the driver and DB
regarding the Timestamp  and Date data types. The ojdbc14.jar drivers have a
compatibility mode you can use to get around the problem, pass in the
following as a JVM parameter.

-Doracle.jdbc.V8compatible=true

Here is the article from MetaLink that talks about the problem (not sure of
the number):


PURPOSE
-------
 
   Clarify the use of oracle.jdbc.V8Compatible property flag
 
 
SCOPE & APPLICATION
-------------------
       JDBC 920x Date/TimeStamp mapping is different from JDBC 8i, 9iR1.
     
<TITLE FOR MAIN ARTICLE TEXT>
-----------------------------
   Summary of  features afftected by oracle.jdbc.V8Compatible.
 
 
 
 
 
As of 9.2.0.1.0 Oracle realigned its DATE type with the java.sql.Types.DATE
type.  
Prior to this  
java.sql.DATE and  java.sql.TIMESTAMP were mapped to
java.sql.Types.TIMESTAMP.
 
This mapping change applies to JDBC default mapping (i.e when getObject() is
used for Date column.
 
  example:  
     select sysdate from dual;
      ...
     while (rset.next ())  {
       System.out.println("getObject for sysdate  : " +
                           rset.getObject(1).getClass().getName());
      System.out.println("getDate for sysdate :" +
                           rset.getDate(1).getClass().getName());
      System.out.println("getTimetamp for sysdate :" +
                           rset.getTimestamp(1).getClass().getName());
   }
 
   Prior to 9201, this will return
     getObject for sysdate  : java.sql.Timestamp      <<<<
     getDate for sysdate :java.sql.Date
     getTimetamp for sysdate :java.sql.Timestamp
 
   As of 9201 onward the following will be returned
 
        
    getObject for sysdate  : java.sql.Date        <<<<<
    getDate for sysdate :java.sql.Date            >> no change
    getTimetamp for sysdate :java.sql.Timestamp   >> no change
 
 
  
 
Note: java.sql.Date has no time portion whereas java.sql.Timestamp does.
 
          
 
With this change in Datatype mapping, some application will fail and/or
generate 
incorrect results when JDBC driver is upgraded from 8i/ 9iR1 to 920x JBDC
driver.
To maintain compatibility and keep applications working after upgrade, a
compatibility flag was
Provided.  Developers now have some options:
 
1>
     Use oracle.jdbc.V8Compatible flag.
 
  JDBC Driver does not detect database version by default.
  To change the compatibility flag for handling TIMESTAMP datatypes,
   connection property 'oracle.jdbc.V8Compatible' can be set to
  'true' and the driver behaves as it behaved in 8i, 901x, 9200
   (with respect to TIMESTAMPs).
  
  By default the flag is set to 'false'. In OracleConnection constructor
  the driver obtains the server version and set the compatibility flag
  Appropriately.
 
      java.util.Properties prop = new java.util.Properties ();
      prop.put ("oracle.jdbc.V8Compatible", "true");
      prop.put ("user", "scott");
      prop.put ("password", "tiger");
      String url ="jdbc:oracle:thin:@host:port:sid";
      
      Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection (url,prop);
 
 
 
With JDBC 10.1.0.x, in instead of the connection property, the following
system 
property can be useed
   java -Doracle.jdbc.V8Compatible=true .....
 
 
 
Note: This flag is a client only flag that governs the Timestamp and Date
mapping.  
         It does not affect any Database feature.
 
 
 
2> use set/getDate and set/getTimestamp   when dealing with Date and
TimeStamp column datatype accordingly.
   9i server  supports both Date and Timestamp column types
 
DATE is mapped to  java.sql.Date and TIMESTAMP is mapped to
java.sql.Timestamp 
 
I> using setTimestamp
 
 PreparedStatement pstmt = conn.prepareStatement(
            "SELECT count(*) from  tstable where tscol between ? and ?");
        // tscol of type Timetamp (or it can be Date)
 
        String s = new String("2003-01-14 10:00:00.000000000");
        Timestamp ts1 = Timestamp.valueOf(s);
        pstmt.setTimestamp(1, ts1); // Timestamp
 
        String s2 = new String("2003-01-16 10:00:00.000000000");
        Timestamp ts2 = Timestamp.valueOf(s2);
        pstmt.setTimestamp(2, ts2); // Timestamp
        ...
 
 
II>using setDate
 
     PreparedStatement pstmt = conn.prepareStatement(
            "SELECT count(*) from  tstable where datecol between ? and ?");
        // datecole of type Date
 
/*
   pstmt.setDate(1,new java.sql.Date(System.currentTimeMillis()));
   pstmt.setDate(2,new java.sql.Date(System.currentTimeMillis()));
*/
 
   SimpleDateFormat start_dt_in1 = new SimpleDateFormat("2002-09-18
00:00:00");
   SimpleDateFormat start_dt_in2 = new SimpleDateFormat("2003-09-18
00:00:00");
    
   pstmt.setDate(1,start_dt_in1);
   pstmt.setDate(2,start_dt_in2);

 Feature           Is backward compatible (with oracle.jdbc.V8Compatible)?

        Statement  stmt = conn.createStatement();

        }
 
Error : Exception in thread "main" java.sql.SQLException: ORA-00904: invalid
column name
 
Solution you need 
    1> fix for Bug 2640192 (included in 9204)
    2> oracle.jdbc.V8Compatible", "true"
 
 
 
 In earlier versions of JDBC drivers  SQL FUNCTION "TS" was mapped to
"to_date" .   So, the query
 
             select {ts '2002-10-18 18:02:00'} from dual;
 was translated by JDBC to,
          select TO_DATE ('2002-10-18 18:02:00',  'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS')
from dual; 
 
 
With 9i Timestamp is supported in the database and also by 9203 JDBC
Drivers.  
So the query 
 
select {ts '2002-10-18 18:02:00'} from dual;
 
is now translated  by JDBC to
 
 select TO_TIMESTAMP('2002-10-18 18:02:00', 'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:.SS.FF')
from dual; 
 
 
 
 
Known issues:  There is some performances issue when set/getTimestamp
  Bug 3037615
  Bug 2770935
     These bugs are very likely duplicate.
 
 
The following code will no longer work with 9203+ unless V8 flag is set to
true
 
Timestamp start_dt_in = Timestamp.valueOf("2002-09-18 00:00:00");
Timestamp now_period_start_dt ;
PreparedStatement stmt = null;
ResultSet rs = null;
 
System.out.println("start_dt_in="+  start_dt_in );
 
try {
    stmt = conn.prepareStatement( "SELECT TRUNC(?) FROM DUAL" );
    stmt.setTimestamp( 1, start_dt_in );
    rs = (OracleResultSet) stmt.executeQuery();
    if ( rs.next() ) {
        now_period_start_dt = rs.getTimestamp( 1 );
        System.out.println("Curr Period Start="+  now_period_start_dt );
    }
 
 
will generate 
    Exception in thread "main" java.sql.SQLException:
     ORA-932: inconsistent datatypes
 
 
Reason : trunc ( )  supports Date columns and does not support  Timestamp
(this is an RDBMS issue).
          So, you need to set the V8 flag to true
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Another bug that changed the Date/Timetamp mapping is  2428427 to comly with
J2EE 1.3 CTS.  This was fixed in 9014 and it specific to classesdmx*.zip/jar
(the *dms* jar filed mainly used by iAS/OC4J).  These *dms* jar files, by
the
default value for oracle.jdbc.J2EE13Compliant  is true.  in classes111.zip
classes12.jar and ojdbc14.jar/zip the default is false.
 
  One can toggel this flag  true/false by
 
   java -Doracle.jdbc.J2EE13Compliant=true|false
 
 
example of of sample runs:
 
query used :"select sysdate from dual"
classes12dms.jar used.
 
 
 Driver Version      Object Type
 ==============      ===========
   9.0.1.3.0            java.sql.Timestamp >> fix for 2428427 NOT included
   9.0.1.4.0            java.sql.Date   >> fix for 2428427 INCLUDED
   9.0.1.5.0            java.sql.Date   >> fix for 2428427 INCLUDE
 
    In JDBC 9014+ ,to keep older (9013) behavior  simply run the application
with 
 
 
$java -Doracle.jdbc.J2EE13Compliant=false .....
 
 
However please note that J2EE 1.3 CTS require that Date to mapped to
java.sql.Date.
