java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.hibernate.hql.antlr.HqlBaseParser.recover

Problem:
After a deployment to our prod server, some pages do not display and we see this error in the logs:

java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.hibernate.hql.antlr.HqlBaseParser.recover(Lantlr/RecognitionException;Lantlr/collections/impl/BitSet;)V

It smells like a lib issue, but its not, its actually an HQL syntax issue

the offending HQL was this - can you spot the problem:
'select dattrDesc, dattrDesc.deviceLocalContent.displayName, dattrDesc.deviceLocalContent.deviceContentId, dattrDesc.attributeName, dattrDesc.attributeValue, dattrDesc.link, '', '', '' from DeviceAttributes dattrDesc'
this thing was commited into a database table.

Solution:
This part , '', '', '' created an issue, it should have been , '''', '''', '''' to escape the quotes for SQL.
