What version of SQLite are you using? I'm not sure the IF EXISTS option was present until a certain version of 3.x (though I'm not sure which version).

According to the Documentation at http://www.sqlite.org/lang_createtrigger.html SQLite should understand this syntax. So what am i doing wrong here?
