UPDATE MySQL Syntax Error

I am getting an SQl syntax error when running the following query and can not see what is wrong with it:

$query = "UPDATE combined SET v_categories_name_1_1='Hoodie', 
v_attribute_options_id_1=1, v_attribute_values_id_1_1=1, v_attribute_values_id_1_2=2, 
v_attribute_values_id_1_3=3, v_attribute_values_id_1_4=4, 
v_attribute_values_price_1_1=0, v_attribute_values_price_1_2=0, 
v_attribute_values_price_1_3=0, v_attribute_values_price_1_4=0, 
v_attribute_options_name_1_1='Size', v_attribute_values_name_1_1_1='Small', 
v_attribute_values_name_1_2_1='Medium', v_attribute_values_name_1_3_1='Large', 
v_attribute_values_name_1_4_1='Extra Large') " .
"WHERE v_products_model='$fileName'";

And here is the error:

You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ') WHERE v_products_model=hs_3stm_giantsk.jpg' at line 1

UPDATE:

Thanks everyone for the super fast replies, it's solved my problem though unfortunately I can't accept them for another 9 minutes!

Try formatting your queries; problems become much more apparent:

$query = "
    UPDATE combined SET 
        v_categories_name_1_1='Hoodie', 
        v_attribute_options_id_1=1,
        v_attribute_values_id_1_1=1,
        v_attribute_values_id_1_2=2, 
        v_attribute_values_id_1_3=3, 
        v_attribute_values_id_1_4=4, 
        v_attribute_values_price_1_1=0, 
        v_attribute_values_price_1_2=0, 
        v_attribute_values_price_1_3=0,
        v_attribute_values_price_1_4=0, 
        v_attribute_options_name_1_1='Size',
        v_attribute_values_name_1_1_1='Small', 
        v_attribute_values_name_1_2_1='Medium', 
        v_attribute_values_name_1_3_1='Large', 
        v_attribute_values_name_1_4_1='Extra Large')
    WHERE v_products_model='$fileName'
";

That bad paren is much easier to notice when you're not just looking at one big blob of text. You would (hopefully) never write PHP like that, so why write your SQL like that?

Try this

$query = "UPDATE combined SET v_categories_name_1_1='Hoodie', 
v_attribute_options_id_1=1, v_attribute_values_id_1_1=1, v_attribute_values_id_1_2=2, 
v_attribute_values_id_1_3=3, v_attribute_values_id_1_4=4, 
v_attribute_values_price_1_1=0, v_attribute_values_price_1_2=0, 
v_attribute_values_price_1_3=0, v_attribute_values_price_1_4=0, 
v_attribute_options_name_1_1='Size', v_attribute_values_name_1_1_1='Small', 
v_attribute_values_name_1_2_1='Medium', v_attribute_values_name_1_3_1='Large', 
v_attribute_values_name_1_4_1='Extra Large' " .
"WHERE v_products_model='$fileName'";

I removed the bracket before WHERE clause.
