As I've understood it mysql doesn't support sub-selects inside for example
insert statements
(apart from inset ... select).
Background-stuff:
What I'm working on is parsing logfiles and inserting them into a mysql
database through the C API,
to minimize traffic and to maximize time, I was
This is how I'd like the query to work:
insert into host (host_id, host_IP) values ((select from mail
mail_id where
mail_addr = [EMAIL PROTECTED]), '127.0.0.1')
Try:
insert into host (host_id, host_IP) select mail_id, '127.0.0.1' from mail
where mail_addr = '[EMAIL PROTECTED]';
