INSERT OR REPLACE only works with 1 row in database

INSERT OR REPLACE works when there is only one row in the table and it happens to be the one that is replaced. However, when there are multiple rows in the table, INSERT OR REPLACE just inserts and creates a duplicate!
For example, if I create an entry with eventId = '123'. And then try to write another entry with eventId = '123' and roomnumber equal to something different than the first entry, INSERT OR REPLACE will work. However, if there are more than one rows in the table it will create a duplicate. Here is my code:
String createSql = "CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS events (\n"
+ " eventId VARCHAR(20) PRIMARY KEY ON CONFLICT REPLACE,\n"
+ " roomNumber VARCHAR(20) NOT NULL,\n"
+ " startTime TIMESTAMP NOT NULL,\n"
+ " endTime TIMESTAMP NOT NULL,\n"
+ " name VARCHAR(250),\n"
+ " isVIP BOOLEAN NOT NULL,\n"
+ " capacity INTEGER(20) NOT NULL, \n"
+ " UNIQUE (eventId) \n"
+ ");";
String sql = "INSERT OR REPLACE INTO events (eventId, roomNumber, startTime, endTime, capacity, name, isVIP)" + " Values('"+event.getID()+"', '"+event.getRoomNumber()+"', '"+event.getStartTime()+"', '"+event.getEndTime()+"', '"+event.getCapacity()+"', '"+event.getName()+"', '"+event.getVIPStatus()+"')";

I would read this thread for more information about how REPLACE works.
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/29539838/replace-versus-insert-in-sql#:~:text=According%20to%20the%20documentation%2C%20the,the%20new%20row%20is%20inserted.
Also I would suggest trying just "REPLACE," as it functions as INSERT but will replace on conflicts.

SQLite Delete Cascade not working: FOREIGN KEY constraint failed

I have two table:
Child Table
public static final String SQL_CREATE_TAB_COMMENT = "CREATE TABLE " +TABLE_COMMENT+ "( " + KEY_COMMENT + " INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT , " + COLUMN_EMMET + " TEXT NOT NULL , " +COMMENT+ " TEXT , "+IMAGCOM+" TEXT , "+FORMAT+" TEXT NOT NULL , "+DATECMTCREATION+" TEXT , "+TAGSTATUTCMT+" TEXT , "+ COLUMN_COMMENT_KEY_POST +" INT NOT NULL , "+EMETPOST_PHONE+ " TEXT, " +DEST_PHONE+ " TEXT, " + IDCMTEMET + " TEXT,"+VISITEDCMT+" TEXT, "+TAB_IMAGES + " TEXT, "+IS_DOWNLOADED + " TEXT,"+FILEDOC+" TEXT, FOREIGN KEY(" + COLUMN_COMMENT_KEY_POST + ") REFERENCES " + TABLE_POST_NEW + "(_id) ON DELETE CASCADE )";
Parent Table
public static final String SQL_CREATE_TAB_POST_NEW = "CREATE TABLE " +TABLE_POST_NEW+ "( " +KEY_POST+ " INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT ," +EMMET+ " TEXT NOT NULL , " +TEXT+ " TEXT NOT NULL , "+ IMAG +" TEXT ,"+TYPE+ " TEXT ," +DEST+ " TEXT ," +IDPOSTEMET+ " TEXT NOT NULL, " +CMT_NON_LU+ " TEXT, " +DATELASTEVENT+" TEXT, " +DATECREATION+ " TEXT, " +TAGSTATUT+ " TEXT,"+COUNTER_DEST+" TEXT,"+VISITED+" TEXT,"+ NAME_GROUP+ " TEXT,"+ IDGROUP + " TEXT, "+TAB_IMAGES + " TEXT, "+IS_DOWNLOADED +" TEXT, "+COLUMN_POST_KEY_CONTACT+ " INT NOT NULL DEFAULT 0, "+LABEL_IMAGES+" TEXT,"+TAB_FILE+" TEXT)";
Now If I am deleting parent row I have this error:
FOREIGN KEY constraint failed Error Code : 787 (SQLITE_CONSTRAINT_FOEIGNKEY)
Caused By : Abort due to constraint violatio
public PosteManager openForWrite(){
db = dbHelper.getWritableDatabase();
//db.execSQL("PRAGMA foreign_keys=ON");
db.setForeignKeyConstraintsEnabled(true);
return this;
}
public int deletePoste(int posteId){
openForWrite();
int delete = db.delete(DbHelper.TABLE_POST_NEW, DbHelper.KEY_POST + "=" + posteId, null);
close();
return delete;
}
KEY_POST = _id; and I test COLUMN_COMMENT_KEY_POST = _id and COLUMN_COMMENT_KEY_POST = post_id
I have the same error
I test your code and I have this in Log.d("TABLESQL","The creation SQL for table " :
D/TABLESQL: The creation SQL for table comment_tbl_new is

From API 16+, you should enable foreign key constraint like this in SQLITEOpenHelper class:
#Override
public void onConfigure(SQLiteDatabase db){
db.setForeignKeyConstraintsEnabled(true);
}
As the foreign key constraint is enabled, You can check if another table is not referring child table and it's foreign key is not cascade. Also ") REFERENCES " + TABLE_POST_NEW + "(_id) have you defined _id column in your TABLE_POST_NEW ?

Database does not store data. I get the "SQLiteLog: (1) near "Name": syntax error" from Android Studio log

I get from "SQLiteLog: (1) near "Name": syntax error" after the addPatient() method is called and the data given by addPatient() method is not stored in the database.
At first, I suspect that something might be wrong with my "CREATE TABLE" query but I have tried everything and I couldn't figure out what was wrong.
#Override
public void onCreate(SQLiteDatabase db)
{
//===============Create a table for Patient
String query = "CREATE TABLE TABLE_PATIENT (COLUMN_ID INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT, " +
"COLUMN_USERNAME TEXT, " +
"COLUMN_PASSWORD TEXT, " +
"COLUMN_FIRSTNAME TEXT, " +
"COLUMN_LASTNAME TEXT, " +
"COLUMN_AGE TEXT, " +
"COLUMN_GENDER TEXT, " +
"COLUMN_PHONE TEXT, " +
"COLUMN_ADDRESS TEXT);";
db.execSQL(query);
}//End of onCreate()
//Add a new Patient Row to the database
public void addPatient(Patient patient)
{
Log.i(TAG, "addPatient("+patient.getUserName()+")");
ContentValues values = new ContentValues();
values.put(COLUMN_ID, patient.getU_Id());
values.put(COLUMN_USERNAME, patient.getUserName());
values.put(COLUMN_PASSWORD, patient.getPassword());
values.put(COLUMN_FIRSTNAME, patient.getFirstName());
values.put(COLUMN_LASTNAME,patient.getLastName());
values.put(COLUMN_AGE, patient.getAge());
values.put(COLUMN_GENDER,patient.getGender());
values.put(COLUMN_PHONE,patient.getPhoneNumber());
values.put(COLUMN_ADDRESS, patient.getAddress());
SQLiteDatabase db = getWritableDatabase();
try
{
db.insert(TABLE_PATIENT, null, values);
db.close();
}catch (Exception e)
{
Log.i(TAG, e.getMessage());
}
}//End of addPatient()

I guess you have defined these variables:
String COLUMN_ID = "id";
String COLUMN_USERNAME = "username";
....................................
or something like that.
If you have spaces in the names of the columns you must use square brackets or backticks around them, like:
String COLUMN_USERNAME = "[user name]";
In your CREATE TABLE statement you define the column names as:
"COLUMN_ID", "COLUMN_USERNAME", ....
because you use the variable names and not their values.
But in addPatient() method you are putting values to the ContentValues object by using their actual names.
To solve your problem, 1st uninstall the app from the device you are testing it, so the database is deleted.
Then change the CREATE TABLE statement like this:
String query = "CREATE TABLE " + TABLE_PATIENT +" (" +
COLUMN_ID + " INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT, " +
COLUMN_USERNAME + " TEXT, " +
COLUMN_PASSWORD + " TEXT, " +
COLUMN_FIRSTNAME + " TEXT, " +
COLUMN_LASTNAME + " TEXT, " +
COLUMN_AGE + " TEXT, " +
COLUMN_GENDER + " TEXT, " +
COLUMN_PHONE + " TEXT, " +
COLUMN_ADDRESS + " TEXT)";
and rerun to recreate the database with the correct column names.

Why is sqlite auto_increment not incrementing?

I've got a database set up to store notes. I want to auto increment the first column. I've tried this, but when I read from the database every result in that column is 'null'.This is the code for creating the DB.
private static final String NOTES_TABLE_CREATE =
"CREATE TABLE " + NOTES_TABLE_NAME + " (" +
COLUMN_NAMES[0] + " INTEGER AUTO_INCREMENT, " +
COLUMN_NAMES[1] + " TEXT, " +
COLUMN_NAMES[2] + " TEXT, " +
COLUMN_NAMES[3] + " TEXT, " +
COLUMN_NAMES[4] + " TEXT, " +
COLUMN_NAMES[5] + " TEXT, " +
COLUMN_NAMES[6] + " TEXT);";
This is the code for getting the DB result.
SQLiteDatabase db = this.getReadableDatabase();
Cursor result = db.query(NOTES_TABLE_NAME, COLUMN_NAMES, null, null, null, null, null, null);
result.moveToFirst();
result.moveToNext();
System.out.println(result.getInt(0));
System.out.println(result.getString(1));
This is the output from logcat
04-09 17:56:17.981 22147-22147/com.example.a8460p.locationotes I/System.out: 0
04-09 17:56:17.981 22147-22147/com.example.a8460p.locationotes I/System.out: notetitle1234567890

AUTO_INCREMENT (as opposed to INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT) is not supported in sqlite.
This is a little non-obvious, because sqlite silently ignores column constraints it does not recognize:
sqlite> CREATE TABLE test (
a INTEGER FABBELBABBEL NOT NULL
);
sqlite> .schema test
CREATE TABLE test (a INTEGER FABBELBABBEL NOT NULL);
sqlite> INSERT INTO test (a) VALUES (1);
sqlite> INSERT INTO test (a) VALUES (NULL);
Error: NOT NULL constraint failed: test.a
AUTOINCREMENT on the other hand, is supported for integer primary keys and only there, so the obvious workaround attempt is not supported, either:
sqlite> CREATE TABLE test (a INTEGER AUTOINCREMENT NOT NULL, b INTEGER);
Error: near "AUTOINCREMENT": syntax error
In short: Auto increment is only available for integer primary keys.

creating column family in cql?

when i create column family using the cql it gives me very unexpected output.
public static void createColumnfamily()
{
try
{
Class.forName("org.apache.cassandra.cql.jdbc.CassandraDriver");
Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:cassandra://192.168.1.32:9160/temp");
String qry = "CREATE TABLE users(user_name varchar," +
"password varchar," +
"gender varchar," +
"session_token varchar," +
"birth_year bigint," +
"PRIMARY KEY (user_name)" +
")";
Statement smt = con.createStatement();
smt.executeUpdate(qry);
System.out.println("TABLE(column family) is created");
con.close();
}
catch(Exception e)
{
System.out.println(" : " + e.getMessage());
}
}
Here what i got : line 1:132 extraneous input ')' expecting EOF

You're using CQL 2, which does not support that style of primary key declaration. If you want to declare it that way, you should be using CQL 3, which you can accomplish by requesting that version in the connection URL:
DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:cassandra://192.168.1.32:9160/temp?version=3.0.0");
However, CQL 3 isn't necessary just for this. As Steve Van Opstal suggested, you can simply put the PRIMARY KEY marker with the column definition itself, since you don't have a multi-component primary key.
CREATE TABLE users(
user_name varchar PRIMARY KEY,
password varchar,
gender varchar,
session_token varchar,
birth_year bigint,
);
CQL 3 is to be generally preferred if your Cassandra supports it, as it is the way forward, but in case you don't want to switch right now, you can make that second change.

I only see two possible problems here.
The query doesn't accept your way of defining the primary key
Try this:
String qry = "CREATE TABLE users(user_name varchar PRIMARY KEY," +
"password varchar," +
"gender varchar," +
"session_token varchar," +
"birth_year bigint"
")";
The query doesn't accept varchar's as primary key
Try this:
String qry = "CREATE TABLE users(user_id int" +
"user_name varchar," +
"password varchar," +
"gender varchar," +
"session_token varchar," +
"birth_year bigint," +
"PRIMARY KEY (user_id)" +
")";
