Hello.

Is there someone who might be able to show me how to adjust a insert for a prepared statement sent to a derby embedded db?

method to insert

        conn = getConn();
        System.out.println("in bInsertedTables:");
        boolean bInsertedTables = false;


        for (int i = 0; i < insertSchoolofdbTables.length; i++) {
            PreparedStatement ps = null;
            String query = "";
            String badInsert = "";
            try {
                badInsert = insertSchoolofdbTables[i].trim();
                query = ModelUtils.getXMLResource(insertSchoolofdbTables[i].trim());
                ps = (PreparedStatement) conn.prepareStatement(query);
                ps.execute();
                bInsertedTables = true;
                ps.close();
                System.out.println("created table: " + insertSchoolofdbTables[i]);
            } catch (SQLException ex) {
                System.out.println("Error at : " + badInsert);
                String value = dbProperties.getProperty(badInsert);
                System.out.println(value);
                //ex.printStackTrace();
            }
        }
        return bInsertedTables;
    }

Your problem (if the queries really look like what you've presented there) is the single quotes (') around the table names. Remove those. If you're worried that the tablename might be "generally" invalid, thereby needing to be quoted, then use double quotes (") not single quotes.

thanks for noticing those two tables I missed those "'"quotes I think I removed all table names using single quotes. I have to now figure why INSERT is not exceptable. I have only looked at examples that show using INSERT at the command line. Mine are prepared stmts so I have yet to figure what the difference may be. It might be implying that the tables are not good but in the dir I created I can not tell if there are actually tables there.


note: I deleted most of the errors here because they go on for every INSERT stmt for each table.
additionally I have attached the dir that is created to hold the database. I am not sure how to tell from the folder if the database hold any tables.

created table: insertUserGroupTable
created table: insertUserGroupMappingTable

Show the code for this part. Are you trying to execute multiple statements with a single sql string? If so, have you activated the "allow multiple statements" property?

Show the code for this part. Are you trying to execute multiple statements with a single sql string? If so, have you activated the "allow multiple statements" property?

I am pulling a insert statement from resources that is intended to insert data into each table which should have been created but I added ps.close to my bInsertTables() at the ex.printstack() and it might need the property you mentioned. I might need to dbProperties.put that in the connection. not sure.
but to answer your question. I am trying to use a new prepared statement which will contain many INSERT statements for a table
then loop so as to create another for another table.

incidentally, some tables have a call to make a ps but have no data added at this point. this empty ps may be a prob.

thanks

Something in there is null. Add a printstacktrace to that catch block so you can at least identify which line it's happening on.

I won't close the first statement.

I don't know how that won't just make things worse.

I won't close the first statement.

It won't close the first statement so it must be wrong. I will have to look at that tonight and figure how to write th CDATA for a Insert and figure a way to tell if the table is even actually there.
