I'm having trouble with the following error: "Conglomerate could not be

INSERT INTO resource_usage (resid,itemid,itemtype)

WHERE itemid=?
AND itemtype=?
AND NOT EXISTS (SELECT resid FROM resource_usage
WHERE itemid=? AND itemtype=?));
I also get the same error from this, which looks fairly innocuous to me:
INSERT INTO resource_usage (resid,itemid,itemtype)
(SELECT resid,20,'final' FROM resource_usage WHERE itemid=? AND itemtype=?);
Is it perhaps because I'm inserting into the same table I'm selecting from?

John English If we were to define a religion to be a system of thought
which contains unprovable statements, so it contains an element of
faith, then Gödel has taught us that not only is mathematics a religion
but it is the only religion able to prove itself to be one.
