The error most commonly occurs if you are performing DDL and DML in a single multi-statement request.

For example if you have something like this:

     String sql = "create table a (i1 integer); insert into a values (1);";
     statement.execute (sql);

You need to do this in two steps. First the create (DDL) then the insert (DML). You will get the same error if you did the create followed by a select and there are a number of other variations that can cause the error.

For example:

     String sql = "create table a (i1 integer);";
     statement.executeUpdate (sql);
     ...
     sql = "insert into a values (1);";
     statement.executeUpdate (sql);

Note that you can batch up the DML statements if you like, although that isn't the best way to get data into the table. Example:

     sql = "insert into a values (1); insert into a values (2); insert into a";

I hope this helps
