Syntax error

hey guys ive just noted that when booting the server it gives out this error
java.sql.SQLException: near "group": syntax error

ok after looking at this i worked it out that the error was from the admin script

so i removed the line by adding -- at the start

-- Group management DB entry
database:queryupdate("CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS player (ID INTEGER PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL, name VARCHAR NOT NULL, groupID INTEGER);");
-- database:queryupdate("CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS group (ID INTEGER PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL, name VARCHAR NOT NULL, adminID INTEGER NOT NULL);");
database:queryupdate("CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS groupAdmin (ID INTEGER PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL, admin1 INTEGER, admin2 INTEGER, admin3 INTEGER);");

this has fixed the error but what i want to now know is why was this line giving this error it looks fine to me

cheers red, of cause i should know this its the same thing with php but its been some years and i am a little rusty lol
