This question is in reference to Atlassian Documentation: Unable to move issue to another Issue Type due to 'The issue type selected is invalid' error
I am trying to run this update query:
INSERT INTO optionconfiguration VALUES ((SELECT MAX(id)+1 FROM optionconfiguration), 'issuetype', '10004', 10000, (SELECT MAX(sequence)+1 FROM optionconfiguration WHERE fieldconfig=10000));
And I am getting an error:
INSERT INTO optionconfiguration VALUES ((SELECT MAX(id)+1 FROM optionconfiguration), 'issuetype', '10004', 10000, (SELECT MAX(sequence)+1 FROM optionconfiguration WHERE fieldconfig=10000)) Error Code: 1093. You can't specify target table 'optionconfiguration' for update in FROM clause 0,035 sec
I think its related to this issue with inner queries. Any idea how to turn this SQL statement to correct one?
The error is likely due to the fact that you are referencing the same table in the INSERT and the subqueries. All I can suggest offhand is inserting into a temporary table, then inserting the result(s) to optionconfiguration.
