Updating SQLite - near "WHERE": syntax error (code 1 SQLITE_ERROR):

I recently added a column to my SQLite database, since adding this column a button which I had which sets the value of one of the database columns to "1" or "0" have now started to crash my application when the button tries to use the updateData(), so I assume thats where my issue is, is in the code or the syntax of the updateData()
Error:
android.database.sqlite.SQLiteException: near "WHERE": syntax error
(code 1 SQLITE_ERROR): , while compiling: UPDATE my_manager SET
location_name = 'blarney stone' , location_county =
'Cork',location_description = 'jj',location_route =

'null',location_url = 'JJ',location_url2 = 'jj',location_url3 = 'jj',
WHERE location_id = '1'
at android.database.sqlite.SQLiteConnection.nativePrepareStatement(Native
Method)
Code:
void updateData(String id, String row_id, String name, String county, String description, String
in_route, String position, String lat, String longg, String url, String url2, String url3) {
System.out.println(TABLE_NAME+"; "+row_id +"; "+ name +"; "+ county+"; "+ description+"; " + lat
+"; "+ longg+"; "+ url +"; "+ url2 +"; "+ url3 +"; ");
SQLiteDatabase db = this.getReadableDatabase();
db.execSQL("UPDATE " + "my_manager" + " SET location_name = "+"'"+ name + "' " + ", " +
"location_county = " + "'"+ county + "'"+ "," +
"location_description = " + "'"+ description + "'" + "," +
"location_route = " + "'"+ in_route + "'" + "," +
"location_position = " + "'"+ position + "'" + "," +

"location_url2 = " + "'"+ url2 + "'" + "," +
"location_url3 = " + "'"+ url3 + "'" + "," + " WHERE location_id = "+"'"+ row_id+"'");

Sorry my friend don't take this as a bad but how about you avoid to much unnecessary "+" if it is possible.
void updateData("UPDATE my_manager SET location_name = '"+ name + "', " +
"location_county = '"+ county + "', " +
"location_description = '"+ description + "'," +

Java/UCanAccess Insert not working right

last week we got an assignment at school to develop a web Application for students, so they can use them to organize drives to school. The whole project is focused on project management and not on the programming part.
In my team we decided to make a GWT-Application because were all JAVA-Developers.
On the Server side I'm having trouble with our Microsoft Access DB I need to Insert a given dataset in the database, from the frontend I get an createObject which contains all the Information needed to be Insertet. My method looks like this:
#Override
public void makeOffer(CreateObject createobject) {
SecurityContext securityContext = SecurityContextHolder.getContext();
if(!securityContext.getAuthentication().isAuthenticated()) {
return;
}
String userName = securityContext.getAuthentication().getPrincipal().toString();
String teacher = "n";
if(userName.length() < 3) {
teacher = "y";
}
String sql = "INSERT INTO T_FAHRTEN "
+ "(F_SEATS, F_FREESEATS, F_CAR, F_TIME, F_SMOKE, F_GENDER, F_TEACHER, F_INFOS, F_NAME, F_VORNAME, F_NUMMER, F_MAIL, F_STARTTOWN, F_STARTSTREET, F_STARTPLZ, F_DATE, F_USERNAME)"
+ "Values ("
+ "'" + createobject.getSeats() + "', "
+ "'" + createobject.getFreeSeats() + "', "
+ "'" + createobject.getCar() + "', "
+ "'" + createobject.getTime() + "', "
+ "'" + createobject.getSmoke() + "', "
+ "'" + createobject.getGender() + "', "
+ "'" + teacher + "', "
+ "'" + createobject.getInfo() + "', "
+ "'" + createobject.getName() + "', "
+ "'" + createobject.getVorname() + "', "
+ "'" + createobject.getTelNummer() + "', "
+ "'" + createobject.getEmail()+ "', "
+ "'" + createobject.getStartStadt() + "', "
+ "'" + createobject.getStartStreet() + "', "
+ "'" + createobject.getStartPlz()+ "', "
+ "'" + createobject.getDate() + "', "
+ "'" + userName + "'"
+ ");";
Connection conn = null;
Statement stm = null;
try {
//FIXME
String dbURL = getClass().getResource("Drive2Gether2School1.accdb").getPath();
conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:ucanaccess://" + dbURL);
stm = conn.createStatement();
stm.executeUpdate(sql);
} catch (SQLException e) {
System.out.println("==> error creating");
e.printStackTrace();
//TODO implement Error Handling
} finally {
try {
if(stm != null) stm.close();
if(conn != null) conn.close();
} catch (SQLException e) {
System.out.println("==> error closing");
//TODO implement Error Handling
}
}
System.out.println("==> offer createt");
}
The Problem is, the data doesnt't get Insertet into the Access DB.
Actual its kinda weird, I have a method which gives me everything from the table and shows it on the Frontend. And If I insert something and then show everything I see the stuff I just insertet, but if I open the Tabel in MS-Access the Inserts are not there.
I already tried conn.commit and conn.setAutoCommit(true) both not helping.

[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression

Need help with this update query on JAVA, just started learning this but having problems
Getting following error upon execution
[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Syntax error (missing
operator) in query expression 'B.AWHERE ID =4'.
and data is not updating in MS Access database file
public void update(Student s)
{
int w = Integer.parseInt(s.getID());
String query = "UPDATE Student SET ID =" + w + "," + "FirstName =" + s.getFirstName() + "," + "LastName =" + s.getLastName() + "," + "Address =" + s.getAddress() + "," + "Gender =" + s.getGender() + "," + "DOB =" + s.getDOB() + "," + "Degree =" + s.getDegree() + "WHERE ID =" + w;
try
{
stmt.executeUpdate(query);
}
catch(SQLException e)
{
System.out.println("Problem in Query");
e.printStackTrace();
}
}

Change your UPDATE statement to be like below
String query = "UPDATE Student SET "FirstName = '" + s.getFirstName() +
"'," + "LastName = '" + s.getLastName() +
"'," + "Address = '" + s.getAddress() +
"'," + "Gender = '" + s.getGender() +
"'," + "DOB = '" + s.getDOB() +
"'," + "Degree = '" + s.getDegree() +
"' WHERE ID = " + w;
But your query won't make much sense cause, you are setting ID = w and also checking WHERE ID = w

You are missing spaces and apostrophes for string values in your whole query E.g.
"Degree =" + s.getDegree() + "WHERE ID ="
is being evaluated to
"Degree =BAWHERE ID ="
which is invalid syntax.
EDIT: I can only guess that your Student object returns strings in the getter methods so try this.
String query = "UPDATE Student SET ID =" + w + ","
+ "FirstName =\"" + s.getFirstName() + "\","
+ "LastName =\"" + s.getLastName() + "\","
+ "Address =\"" + s.getAddress() + "\","
+ "Gender =\"" + s.getGender() + "\","
+ "DOB =\"" + s.getDOB() + "\","
+ "Degree =\"" + s.getDegree() + "\" "
+ "WHERE ID =" + w;

SQLite insert into error (Android)

I keep getting this error when trying to add a new athlete to my database. Could someone please figure out what I am doing wrong. I am almost certain all of my sql statements are correct. I think it thinks that it is creating a new column under events for whatever is from the athlete object but I don't know
private static final String DATABASE_NAME = "AthletesDB";
private static final int VERSION = 1;
private static final String TABLE_NAME = "Athletes";
private static final String COLUMN_ID = "ID";
private static final String COLUMN_FIRST_NAME = "First_Name";
private static final String COLUMN_LAST_NAME = "Last_Name";
private static final String COLUMN_AGE = "Age";
private static final String COLUMN_GENDER = "Gender";
private static final String COLUMN_EVENT = "Event";
private static final String COLUMN_TIER = "Tier";
private static final String[] COLUMNS = {"ID", "First_Name", "Last_Name", "Age", "Gender", "Event", "Tier"};
private static final String TABLE_CREATE = "CREATE TABLE " + TABLE_NAME + "( " + COLUMN_ID + " INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT, "
+ COLUMN_FIRST_NAME + " VARCHAR(20), " + COLUMN_LAST_NAME + " VARCHAR(20), " + COLUMN_AGE + " INTEGER, " +
COLUMN_GENDER + " VARCHAR(20), " + COLUMN_EVENT + " VARCHAR(20), " + COLUMN_TIER + " INTEGER " + ")";
public MySQLiteHelper(Context context, String name, SQLiteDatabase.CursorFactory factory, int version) {
super(context, DATABASE_NAME, null, VERSION);
}
#Override
public void onCreate(SQLiteDatabase db) {
db.execSQL(TABLE_CREATE);
}
#Override
public void onUpgrade(SQLiteDatabase db, int oldVersion, int newVersion) {
db.execSQL("DROP TABLE IF EXISTS " + TABLE_CREATE);
onCreate(db);
}
public void addAthlete(Athlete athlete){
SQLiteDatabase db = this.getWritableDatabase();
/*ContentValues contentValues = new ContentValues();
contentValues.put(COLUMN_ID, athlete.getID());
contentValues.put(COLUMN_FIRST_NAME, athlete.getFirstName());

contentValues.put(COLUMN_GENDER, athlete.getGender());
contentValues.put(COLUMN_EVENT, athlete.getEvent());
contentValues.put(COLUMN_TIER, athlete.getTier());*/
// db.insert(TABLE_NAME, null, contentValues);
db.execSQL("INSERT INTO " + TABLE_NAME + " (" + COLUMN_ID + ", " + COLUMN_FIRST_NAME + ", " + COLUMN_LAST_NAME
+ ", " + COLUMN_AGE + ", " + COLUMN_GENDER + ", " + COLUMN_EVENT + ", " + COLUMN_TIER + ")" +
" VALUES " + "(" + athlete.getID() + ", " + athlete.getFirstName()
+ ", " + athlete.getLastName() + ", " + athlete.getAge() + ", " + athlete.getGender() + ", " +
athlete.getEvent() + ", " + athlete.getTier() + ");");
db.close();
}

You should surround the string values you insert with single quotes. The exception is thrown because you have whitespace in your literal "Discus Throw". Try the following:
db.execSQL("INSERT INTO "
+ TABLE_NAME + " ("
+ COLUMN_ID + ", "
+ COLUMN_FIRST_NAME + ", "
+ COLUMN_LAST_NAME + ", "
+ COLUMN_AGE + ", "
+ COLUMN_GENDER + ", "
+ COLUMN_EVENT + ", "
+ COLUMN_TIER + ")" +
" VALUES " + "("
+ athlete.getID() + ", "
+ athlete.getFirstName() + ", "
+ athlete.getLastName() + ", "
+ athlete.getAge() + ", "
+ athlete.getGender() + ", "
+ "'" + athlete.getEvent() + "'" + ", "
+ athlete.getTier() + ");");
which gives you
INSERT INTO Athletes (ID, First_Name, Last_Name, Age, Gender, Event, Tier)
VALUES (0, Joe, Richards, 20, Male, 'Discus Throw', 2);

Surround each entry of type TEXT in VALUES with single quotes.
For example,
" VALUES ('" + athlete.getFirstName() + "')"
Or, written out:
" VALUES ('Bob')"

Having Syntax Error in code java

Why is there a syntax error in this code?
String strSqlUpdate = "UPDATE Customers SET Contact = " + contact_num + ","
+ "Email = '" + email_add + "',"
+ "Address = '" + mail_add + "',"
+ "SurveyStatus = " + radio_group + ","
+ "Subscription = " + receive_info +
"WHERE membership_ID = '" + member_ID';
I thought my code was right.

If it is the error in your code, check all the variables that you have used are declared and initialized with proper values.
If it is the syntax of the sql that is bothering you , here is what your sql would look like if all the variables are initialized to null.
UPDATE Customers SET (Contact)null,Emailnull,Address,null,SurveyStatus,null,SubscriptionnullWHERE MembershipID =null
Use spaces in your strSqlUpdate to correct the above sql.
EDIT
What you need is something like this.
String strSqlUpdate = "UPDATE Customers SET Contact = " + contact_num
+ ",Email = '" + email_add + "'"
+ ",Address = '" + mail_add + "'"
+ ",SurveyStatus = '" + radio_group + "'"
+ ",Subscription = '" + receive_info + "' "
+ "WHERE membership_ID = '" + member_ID + "'";

I get no syntax errors when I declare and Initialize all of the variables. You have to make sure they're all initialized, within the scope of the strSqlUpdate
String contact_num = "";
String email_add = "";
String mail_add = "";
String radio_group = "";
String receive_info = "";
String member_ID = "";
String strSqlUpdate = " UPDATE Customers SET (Contact)" + contact_num + "," + "Email"
+ email_add + "," + "Address" + "," + mail_add + "," + "SurveyStatus" + "," + radio_group
+ "," + "Subscription" + receive_info + "WHERE MembershipID =" + member_ID;
Also considering you're talking about SQL syntax, adding on to what others have said, I'd advise you should use a PreparedStatement to avoid SQL injection.
PreparedStatement pst = conn.prepareStatement(
"UPDATE Customers SET (Contact) ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ? WHERE ? = ?");
pst.setString(1, contact_num);
pst.setString(2, email_add);
... and so on
An error in your current SQL syntax is this
"Subscription" + receive_info + "WHERE MembershipID
Translated as
"...Subscrptionreceive_infoWHERE MembershipID..."
You need to add spaces wherever you don't have commas
