Why I'm getting an error informing that "a result was not expected" when executing stored procedures on PostgreSQL from Java in a batch?

I have this procedure in the database:

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION replacePageRelevance(id INT, value REAL) RETURNS VOID AS $$
BEGIN
INSERT INTO pageRelevance VALUES (id,value);
EXCEPTION WHEN unique_violation THEN
    UPDATE pageRelevance SET relevance = value WHERE pageId = id;       
END
$$
LANGUAGE plpgsql;

And this code that calls this function:

private final String PAGE_RELEVANCE_SQL = "SELECT replacePageRelevance(?,?::REAL)";
try (CallableStatement cstm = conn.prepareCall(PAGE_RELEVANCE_SQL)) {
        for (Map.Entry<Integer, Double> entry : weightMap.entrySet()) {
            cstm.setInt(1, entry.getKey());
            cstm.setDouble(2, entry.getValue());
            cstm.addBatch();
        }
        cstm.executeBatch();
    } catch (SQLException e) {
      开发者_开发技巧  LOGGER.error("Error discovering pages relevance: " + e.getNextException());
    }
}

When I execute the batch, the values are inserted or replaced in the table, but after that, I'm getting an exception informing that A result was returned when none was expected.

I don't know what is wrong, if the way I call the procedure or the procedure itself. What can be the problem and how to solve it?

Call a procedure with SELECT is the right/only way?

From what I can tell you are using SELECT when call should be used.

An example from the PostgreSQL documentation on the JDBC interface:

// Turn transactions off.
con.setAutoCommit(false);
// Procedure call.
CallableStatement upperProc = con.prepareCall("{ ? = call upper( ? ) }");
upperProc.registerOutParameter(1, Types.VARCHAR);
upperProc.setString(2, "lowercase to uppercase");
upperProc.execute();
String upperCased = upperProc.getString(1);
upperProc.close();

Note that the ? = call syntax for the result is unnecessary in your case - you will want to use just call replacePageRelevance(?,?::REAL)

The reason that this syntax differs from actual PostgreSQL is because this is part of the JDBC specification.
