Exception in JDBC Java client : "java.sql.SQLException: ORA-01410: invalid ROWID"

I was facing an issue with JDBC Java client which pulls the data from a function in Oracle Database. Whenever i try to get the value , i get exception saying
"java.sql.SQLException: ORA-01410: invalid ROWID",

Then did a small change in the JDBC java client, then was able to fix this issue.
The change that i made on the connection object is as below.
After getting the connection object using the driver manager i made the auto commit option as "False". By doing this i was able to get the value from the database with out any issue.

DriverManager.registerDriver(new OracleDriver());
//Establishing the connection
oracleConnection =
DriverManager.getConnection(thinConn, userName, password);
oracleConnection.setAutoCommit(false);
