SQL0102N string too long

Greetings,

Has anybody seen this error
with log4j before ?

I'm getting an error SQL0102N
when trying to log to a DB2 table. The error occurs when I try to
insert a message which has
a length is greater than 256 bytes. The attribute in the DB2 table is a

VARCHAR(1200). I'm using
the PooledJDBCAppender and my insert statement is defined within the log4j.properties
file.
Here's the error I'm getting:

[5/16/05 9:01:08:533 CDT]
56e296e0 SystemErr     R log4j:ERROR Failed to excute sql
[5/16/05 9:01:08:533 CDT]
56e296e0 SystemErr     R COM.ibm.db2.jdbc.DB2Exception: [IBM][CLI
Driver][DB2] SQL0102N  The string constant beginning with "org.frb.st"
is too long.  SQLSTATE=54002

thanks,
