I added the below code for adding a column to the SithluBody table when migration.

static final Migration MIGRATION_3_4 = new Migration(3, 4) {
    @Override
    public void migrate(SupportSQLiteDatabase database) {
        database.execSQL("ALTER TABLE SithaluBody ADD COLUMN has_thumb INTEGER NOT NULL 
        DEFAULT 0");
        database.execSQL("ALTER TABLE SithaluBody ADD COLUMN reacts TEXT");
    }
};

but I got the error ==>

Fatal Exception: android.database.sqlite.SQLiteException duplicate column name: has_thumb (code 1 SQLITE_ERROR). How can I fix it? please help me.

This can be one of the two problems:

  1. You have the has_thumb column added.

  2. You installed an older version in your device/emulator that had that column name, and now that you are trying to do this migration, it's having a conflict.

In case of the second option, try to uninstall or clear the data of you app in the device/emulator and try to install the app again.
