  The "fail" result causes the "authorize" section to the stopped.  That's by design.

  Nothing is wrong.

  If you want to override the fail, you have two options:

	#  if SQL fails, then run "ok"
	redundant {
		sql
		ok
	}

or

	sql {
		fail = 2  # over-rides the "stop on fail"
	}
	if (fail) {
		ok
	}
