MS Access [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Invalid cursor state - sql

Question

I had the error in this code snippet:
private String[][] connectToDB(String query) throws ClassNotFoundException{
String[][] results = null;
try {
Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");
String db = "jdbc:odbc:Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb, *.accdb)};DBQ=E:/EACA_AgroVentures1.accdb";
conn = DriverManager.getConnection(db);
stmt = conn.prepareStatement(query);
ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery();
ResultSetMetaData rsm = rs.getMetaData();
rs.beforeFirst();
int columns = rsm.getColumnCount();
int rows = getRowCount(rs);
//int rows = rs.getFetchSize();
int rowCount = 0;
results = new String[rows][columns];
//System.out.println(rows+" "+columns);
while((rs!=null) && (rs.next())){
for(int i = 1; i < columns; i++){
results[rowCount][i-1] = rs.getString(i); // --> ERROR SHOWS HERE
//System.out.println(rowCount+","+i+" = "+rs.getString(i));
}
rowCount++;
}
rs.getStatement().close();
conn.close();
} catch (SQLException ex) {
Logger.getLogger(MainFrame.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
}
return results;
}
My query consists of the following:
private void loadMR(){
try {
String query = "SELECT dealerCode, SUM(kg) AS totalKG, SUM(price) AS totalPrice, returnDate, BID FROM meatReturns GROUP BY BID, dealerCode, returnDate;";
Object[][] result = connectToDB(query);
// some more code below..
I tried using the first code with some other query given in another method:
private void loadDealers(){
try {
String query = "SELECT * FROM Dealers";
Object[][] result = connectToDBWithRows(
query);
// some more code..
and it runs perfectly well. What is going on here? How can i fix this problem?
UPDATE: the only difference of connectToDBWithRows and connectToDB is the while loop that manages the resultSet
// Snippet from connectToDBWithRows()
while((rs!=null) && (rs.next())){
for(int i = 0; i < columns; i++){
if (i == 0){
// Do nothing
}else{
results[rowCount][i] = rs.getString(i);
//System.out.println(rowCount+","+i+" = "+rs.getString(i));
}
}
rowCount++;
}
and this is my getRowCount() method
private int getRowCount(ResultSet resultSet){
int size = 0;
try {
resultSet.last();
size = resultSet.getRow();
resultSet.beforeFirst();
}
catch(Exception ex) {
return 0;
}
return size;
}

I've noticed that sometimes, Access needs you to specify the table name when referring to columns in sql statements. Try the following:
private void loadMR(){
try {
String query = "SELECT meatReturns.dealerCode, SUM(meatReturns.kg) AS totalKG, SUM(meatReturns.price) AS totalPrice, meatReturns.returnDate, meatReturns.BID FROM meatReturns GROUP BY meatReturns.BID, meatReturns.dealerCode, meatReturns.returnDate";
Object[][] result = connectToDBWithRows(query);
