Question
I am working on a simple app for myself that posts information to a database. I'm really new at this and tried to follow some tutorials along with other tidbits to assemble this.
There is a home screen that gets to the second screen which has a button (add item). Onclicking, this is supposed to build/update the database. I get a crash when I enter that second screen before anything happens. I tried to put in breakpoints to debug but I can't even to get anywhere. It doesn't pause at my breakpoints (or doesn't seem to) so I can't see what's going on
Can anyone point in the right direction for debugging/fixing this?
This is my 2nd screen code - java

The database class java is below. I don't know if you need the xml too but I included the catlog.
public class DbPrice extends SQLiteOpenHelper {

public static final String QUANTITY = "quantity";
public static final String WEIGHT = "weight";
public static final String VOLUME = "volume";
public static final String SALE = "sale";
public static final String STORE = "store";
public static final String EXTRA = "extra";
public static final int VERSION = 1;

Solution
The reason for your app crash is caused by the fact that in your database creation query you are defining the same key twice. Thats why you are getting a duplicate column error.
Both the keys you have,i.e., DAY as well as YEAR have the same value day. You cannot have two columns in a database with the same name. So, to resolve this, all you need to do is change the YEAR definition to-
public static final String YEAR = "year";
Hope this helps!!!
OTHER TIPS
You use two same columns
Code:
create table if not exists price_table
(
_id integer primary key autoincrement,
"**day**" text,
month text,
"**day**" text,...
)
Whenever there is an Exception, if you see a line FATAL EXCEPTION: main in Logcat, look at the below lines. The line with Unable to start activity ComponentInfo, will give you a clear idea about the cause of exception.
Still if you are confused, look for a line starting with Caused by:.
So here your problem is "duplicate column name: day".
Also you can navigate to the specific line which caused the exception. Just look for your package name. Here in this case,
12-29 01:27:21.194: E/AndroidRuntime(1362): at com.unsuccessfulstudent.grocerypricehistory.DbPrice.onCreate(DbPrice.java:49)
12-29 01:27:21.194: E/AndroidRuntime(1362): at com.unsuccessfulstudent.grocerypricehistory.AddItem.onCreate(AddItem.java:31)
At the end of the lines, There is corresponding class and line number. Note that these are the lines caused exception, but the cause of exception may be somewhere else. In this case, String YEAR
