executeUpdate throws error when writing to openfire db

Question

Trying to insert into a table present in openfire db:

..
..
Connection con = new Connection();
Statment stmt = null;
try{
 stmt.executeUpdate("insert into utable values ('a','a');");
}
catch(Exception e){
 e.printStackTrace();
}
...
..

I'm getting the following error :

java.sql.SQLSyntaxErrorException: ORA-00933: SQL command not properly ended

I tried to insert manually to db using that query and I could insert successfully. I'm using BoneCP connection pooling. I've no problem reading from the dbs.

Answer 1

stmt.executeUpdate("insert into utable values ('a','a');") // ';' is wrong

use ,

stmt.executeUpdate("insert into utable values ('a','a')")
