your are losing the real message of the error:
catch (SQLException sqle) {
error = "Update failed, possible duplicate entry";
throw new SQLException( error );
}Better you should do:
catch (SQLException sqle) {
System.out.println(sqle.getMessage()); //get the message from
the exception
// do something here to return the error upside

Here is another beginner question of sorts I imagine. I receive this error. java.sql.SQLException: Update failed, possible duplicate entry
I've got this code in a .jsp page.
<% String ref=request.getHeader("Referer");%>
<BR>
<% count.addInfo( ref );
%>
count is calling the method addInfo in a java bean...
public void addInfo( String Referer )
throws SQLException, Exception {
if (con != null) {
try{
PreparedStatement updateInfo;
updateInfo = con.prepareStatement(
"insert into info(?);");
updateInfo.setString(1,Referer);
updateInfo.execute();
}
catch (SQLException sqle) {
error = "Update failed, possible duplicate entry";
throw new SQLException( error );
}
} else {
error = "Connection with database was lost.";
throw new Exception( error );
}
}
Can anyone see the mistake I am making here. My database has one table now called info with one String field which is the primary key also.
Thanks if anyone can help or point me to a webpage or something.
