but get an authentication challenge that I can not pass. Is there something special about sql updates?
I haven't used SQL in Zope but I experienced the same thing, an authentication request that cannot be satisfied even by the superuser account. For me I found that it happened when I was in a particular dtml-with block and I referred to the id property of the current object. I changed my <dtml-var id> to <dtml-var title_or_id> and the problem went away. I think there may be a bug in Zope regarding accessing the id properties of certain objects. I hope this is some use to you, it may be that you have a completely different problem though. I would be interested to hear the outcome once you get it working and work out what the problem was.
