SQL Server Insert Null error in spite of providing not null values

I am trying to do an insert but it is giving an error stating that credits cannot be null but I am not providing null. Attached Screenshot

Code: Insert into [dbo].[Course] values (12,'Java',1,1,1);

Error: Msg 515, Level 16, State 2, Procedure trgAfterInsert, Line 31 Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'Credits', table 'DemoCollege.dbo.Course'; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails. The statement has been terminated.

Trigger:

Create trigger trgAfterInsert2 ON [dbo].[Course]
After Insert
AS 
Declare @cid int;
Declare @cname nvarchar(50);



Select @cid = i.CourseID from inserted i;
Select @cname = i.Title from inserted i;


Insert into dbo.CourseTemp values (@cid, @cname);

Print 'After insert trigger fired';
GO

Just provide the columns where you want to insert the values.

 Insert into [dbo].[Course](ColName1, ColName2, ColName3, ColName4, etc..) values (12,'Java',1,1,1);

Most probably you're missing a col in the middle

There's an insert trigger on the table & that's where the error is being generated from. There must be some logic in that is converting the provided credit value to a null value somehow.
