“No Such Table” Error found in SQLite Android

Question

I am trying to learn about SQLite databases, but I really hate dealing with any back-end stuff, with a passion. I\'m already hitting walls with a seemingly simple problem. <

Answer 1

If for some reason, you dropped the table, you might want to delete the database to force the application to recreate it correctly. Use adb shell and find the database in /data/data/[package_name]/databases/. You can just delete the file.

Answer 2

Make sure that onCreate method called. I am also facing similar type of problem when creating multiple table. If you create a separate class make sure you first clear all the storage data of your app and then again run it ..It will work fine for me.

Answer 3

try this one for example for insert:

 public boolean insertBook(String title, String author, String isdn) {

        try {
            SQLiteDatabase db = getWritableDatabase();

            ContentValues cv = new ContentValues();
            cv.put(TITLE, title);
            cv.put(AUTHOR, author);
            cv.put(ISBN, isdn);

            ***try
             {
            db.insert(TABLE_NAME, null, cv);
}
 catch ( SQLiteException e)
        {
            onCreate(db);
  db.insert(TABLE_NAME, null, cv);
}***

            db.close();

            return true;
        } catch (Exception exp) {
            exp.printStackTrace();

            return false;
        }
    }

Answer 4

I had this problem, but cleaning the project did not fixed it.
It turned out I passed DATABASE_NAME instead of TABLE_NAME.

Answer 5

Note:

External Database You Access Time must add for the path in Sqliteopenhelper class

public final static String DATABASE_PATH = "/data/data/com.example.shortcuts/databases/";

com.example.shortcuts=Your Package name

Answer 6

Nothing about this made any sense, as the table existed from the very beginning of the DB, so we tried different things:

1. uninstalling app

2. claning cache / data

3. changing database version number

4. forcing to copy the database even if it already existed
