What should I do to solve this ?

Answer 1

Error inserting content=null

This means you have a column that's set to be not NULL, but you didn't supply a value for it. You must supply a value for any column that has a not NULL constraint.

Answer 2

To add to what Gabe said,

You can also replace the value with a whitespace in case its null and add this check to all values being inserted :

if(value == null) {
    value = " ";
}
