Statement objects can only do one thing at a time, so when you execute that INSERT, you invalidate the ResultSet which it generated. You'll need to create a second Statement object to perform the INSERT.

From the Statement documentation: "By default, only one ResultSet object per Statement object can be open at the same time. Therefore, if the reading of one ResultSet object is interleaved with the reading of another, each must have been generated by different Statement objects. All execution methods in the Statement interface implicitly close a statment's current ResultSet object if an open one exists."
