Zope doesn't really care about the contents of the SQL statement. The 
concepts of "insert" and "update" (and even "select") are entirely out 
of Zope's world. It is probably about permissions with the database user 
you have the ZSQL method logging in as. Can you do the same thing on the 
database console as the same user?
