MySQL SQL syntax gives column error - mysql

Question

Whenever I run the following syntax in mySQL:
com.mysql.jdbc.PreparedStatement#4f2f19fd: INSERT INTO Matches_2016_Qualification (Additional_information, Team_number, Points, Auton, Match_number) VALUES (NONE, 4602, 100, 0, 1)
I get the following error:

That makes no sense because NONE is not even a column... Could I have a corrupted database?
Do I need to declare the NONE as \"NONE\" or as an other type?
Thank you for any help,
Lucas

Answer 1

NONE doesn't mean anything in MySQL. The error message is simply saying "I don't recognize "NONE", so I think it is a column name and it is not".
Perhaps you mean one of the following:
VALUES ('NONE', 4602, 100, 0, 1)
VALUES (NULL, 4602, 100, 0, 1)
VALUES (DEFAULT, 4602, 100, 0, 1)
The first inserts the string 'NONE' into the field; the second a NULL value and the third inserts the default value (if none is defined, then NULL).

Answer 2

your error: Unknown column 'NONE' in 'field list'
put this code in variable e.g.
Str = INSERT INTO Matches_2016_Qualification (Additional_information, Team_number, Points, Auton, Match_number) VALUES (NONE, 4602, 100, 0, 1)
then run to your mysql command line and give us the result.
what is your NONE data type?
