I have a table in MySQL which name is “clienttable” and it has 11 columns that the 9th column is “yahooId” and the 11th column is “password”.I have two exception : 1: SQL Syntax for line rst = stmt.executeQuery("SELECT yahooId AND password FROM clienttable");and 2: NullPoniterException for line while (rst.next()) please help me,thanks.
Also this is what I have written in my database class:
public static boolean Test(String userName, String password) {
boolean bool = false;
Statement stmt = null;
try {
stmt = conn.createStatement();
} catch (SQLException ex) {
Logger.getLogger(Manager.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
}
ResultSet rst = null;
try {
rst = stmt.executeQuery("SELECT yahooId AND password FROM clienttable");
} catch (SQLException ex) {
Logger.getLogger(Manager.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
}
try {
while (rst.next()) {
if (rst.getString(9).equals(userName) && rst.getString(11).equals(password)) {
bool = true;
} else {
bool = false;
}
}
} catch (SQLException ex) {
Logger.getLogger(Manager.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
}
return bool;
}
the exception:

Your select should be:
You have an AND instead of a comma. Since the query isn’t valid, no ResultSet is returned and you get the null pointer.
EDIT:
Your query will return a result set, just not the one you want. yahooId AND password will return one column – the result of logical AND on those columns. When you then to rs.getString(“yahooId”), that returns null and you have a .equals() right on there. The root issue is that you need a comma but my reason for the null was wrong.
EDIT 2:
I tried the query and it worked on my mysql. Maybe it’s a version thing. In any case, for his issue, I was correct before the edit.
