AUTOINCREMENT not working

Question

I want to create a table with 1 predefine row in it. So, I am adding the row in onCreate();

Following is my code :

private static final String CREATE_CA         


        

Answer 1

The table has 2 columns so you will either need to provide 2 values, or specify the column names you want to insert to. Change

INSERT INTO CATEGORYTABLE VALUES('Category 1')

to

INSERT INTO CATEGORYTABLE VALUES(NULL, 'Category 1')

or

INSERT INTO CATEGORYTABLE(category_name) VALUES('Category 1')

For what it's worth, it's also a bad practice to catch exceptions in onCreate() or onUpgrade(). If there's a problem, the callback should not return normally.
