Cannot populate Spinner from SQLite DB

I've went through a couple tutorials, trying to populate a spinner from a local SQLite database. I have made a class that successfully inserts items into the database but when I try to populate the spinner, it seems to fail when I try to attach the data to the spinner (but what that data is exactly, I'm not sure..haha) I have tried multiple ways to do this but I get the same error each time. Can anyone shed some light as to why this may be happening, or a possible solution is, I would greatly appreciate it.

My Spinner on postreview.xml:

<Spinner
    android:id="@+id/category_spinner"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="50dp"
    android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
    android:layout_marginRight="15dp"
    android:layout_below="@+id/category_label"
    android:layout_marginLeft="15dp" 
    android:textSize="8dp" 
    android:prompt="@string/spinner_title"
    />

My review page activity:

package ca.nait.kerickson16;

import java.util.List;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.util.Log;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.View.OnClickListener;
import android.widget.ArrayAdapter;
import android.widget.Spinner;

public class PostReview extends Activity implements OnClickListener
{
// Spinner element
Spinner categorySelect;

DBManager db = new DBManager(this);
static final String TAG = "PostReview";
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) 
{
    categorySelect = (Spinner) findViewById(R.id.category_spinner);
    loadSpinnerCategories();

    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.postreview);
}

public void onClick(View view) 
{


}

public void loadSpinnerCategories() 
{
    // database handler
    db = new DBManager(PostReview.this);
     Log.d(TAG,"New DB Handler");
    // Spinner Drop down elements
    List<String> categories = db.getAllCategories();
    Log.d(TAG,"Got List of Categories");

    // Creating adapter for spinner
    ArrayAdapter<String> dataAdapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>(this,
            android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item, categories);
    Log.d(TAG,"Created Adapter for spinner");

    // Drop down layout style - list view with radio button
    dataAdapter.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
    Log.d(TAG,"list view with radio button");
    // attaching data adapter to spinner
    categorySelect.setAdapter(dataAdapter);
}

}

My DB Handler file: package ca.nait.kerickson16;

    Log.d(TAG, "in insert DB method");


    SQLiteDatabase database = this.getWritableDatabase();
    ContentValues values = new ContentValues();
    values.put(C_CATEGORY, categoryName);
    database.insert(TABLE, null, values);
    database.close();
}

public List<String> getAllCategories()

    List<String> categories = new ArrayList<String>();


//        String[] projection = {

//        Cursor cursor = db.query(TABLE, projection, null, null, null, null, C_CATEGORY + " DESC");
//      
//        // looping through all rows and adding to list
//        if (cursor.moveToFirst())

//            } while (cursor.moveToNext());
//        }
//         
//        // closing connection
//        cursor.close();
//        db.close();
//         
//        // returning categories
//        return categories;

 // Select All Query
    String selectQuery = "SELECT * FROM " + TABLE;

    SQLiteDatabase db = this.getReadableDatabase();
    Cursor cursor = db.rawQuery(selectQuery, null);

    // looping through all rows and adding to list
    if (cursor.moveToFirst()) 
    {
        do 
        {
            categories.add(cursor.getString(1));
        } while (cursor.moveToNext());
    }

    // closing connection
    cursor.close();
    db.close();

    // returning
    return categories;
}

}

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
