Hello and thank you for any help you can provide.
I am running on a shared-server platform so I am restricted to using mySQL version 5.6.46 which means I do not have access to "recursive CTE" and "WITH" commands . After many hours of looking for a solution for how I can perform a recursive-type operation - and after trying many approaches that did not end up working - I found this Stack Overflow reference to an approach that seems like a reasonable method for what I am trying to accomplish (and simple enough for someone at my level of understanding). The method described can be found about 1/4 of the way down the page under the title of "Alternative 3: Repeated Self-joins."
In essence, I have copied the entire recommended mySQL query and modified it to my table structure BUT it triggers an error and does not run.
The error is "#1054 - Unknown column 'p2.id' in 'on clause'" which - according to my internet searches - is a common error with many references BUT each refers refers to a two-table structure with a 'comma' that - based on a SQL update years ago now requires parentheses to make it work. I am puzzled with this error on my end because I DO NOT have a two-table structure. I can find no other reason for this error. In fact, on the https://www.piliapp.com/ syntax checker it shows the syntax is fine. I would appreciate your eyes on this query to see what I'm missing. Here is my code:
select p4.ManagerID as parent4_id,
p3.ManagerID as parent3_id,
p2.ManagerID as parent2_id,
p1.ManagerID as parent_id,
p1.EmployeeID as employee_id,
p1.LastName
from cps_db_sm7.dEmployees p1
left join cps_db_sm7.dEmployees p2 on p2.id = p1.ManagerID
left join cps_db_sm7.dEmployees p3 on p3.id = p2.ManagerID
left join cps_db_sm7.dEmployees p4 on p4.id = p3.ManagerID
where 23578 in (p1.ManagerID,
p2.ManagerID,
p3.ManagerID,
p4.ManagerID)
ORDER BY 1,2,3,4,5;
The error is triggered by the first LEFT JOIN and is in reference to the ON p2.id. Could someone please look at this and suggest a solution? Thank you!

the first post on here so apologies if I haven't formatted things properly or if I'm not entirely clear, but I was wondering if someone may be able to assist with an error I'm facing currently.
To give some context, I'm trying to run an SQL query through my phpMyAdmin, in order to fix a customer error we were receiving on-site, after changing our Stripe accounts
WooCommerce support had provided me with the following link:
https://woocommerce.com/document/stripe-fixing-customer-errors/#section-3
However, when I try this in my phpMyAdmin, I get the following error:
Unexpected keyword. (near INNER JOIN) Unrecognized statement type.
(near INNER JOIN)
SQL Error
The query that they had asked me to run is seen here:
DELETE FROM `wp_usermeta`
WHERE meta_key IN ( '_stripe_customer_id', '_stripe_source_id', '_stripe_card_id' );
DELETE tokenmeta FROM `wp_woocommerce_payment_tokenmeta` tokenmeta
INNER JOIN `wp_woocommerce_payment_tokens` ON `wp_woocommerce_payment_tokens`.`token_id` = tokenmeta.`payment_token_id`
WHERE `wp_woocommerce_payment_tokens`.`gateway_id` = 'stripe';
DELETE FROM `wp_woocommerce_payment_tokens` WHERE gateway_id='stripe';
I had spoken to support, who had said that the query is absolutely fine and they could run it on their end, and my developer friends are also a little unsure about this.
Is someone able to shed some light on this and see if I'm doing something wrong? There is a good chance that there is a simple change that's needed that's gone over my head, but I'm just not too sure what it is!
I have been tasked with converting some Crystal SQL queries into QlikView and am having trouble deciphering the SQL code as it has been a decade since I last played with this. I'm modelling the data in MySQL workbench prior to importing it into QlikView.
I have posted the code bellow for the sake of completeness although I realize a lot of it is surplus.
The issue I am having is I don't know and cant seem to work out how do duplicate these queries in MySQL workbench as I don't understand what these code segments are doing:
={?APS: ITEM1.ST_Prodcode} and ={?FKE: ITEM1_1.ST_Prodcode} etc.
The above mentioned code appears to me to be calling the next query. Am I right in thinking this?
Pricing
SELECT
`stock_management1`.`st_prodcode`,
`stock_management1`.`st_sdesc`,
`stock_management1`.`st_mstockist`,
`stock_management1`.`APS_rol`,
`stock_management1`.`APS_eoq`,
`stock_management1`.`APS_ms`
FROM
`pricing`.`stock_management`
`stock_management1`
WHERE
(`stock_management1`.`st_mstockist`='BRA'
OR
`stock_management1`.`st_mstockist`='FCS'
OR
`stock_management1`.`st_mstockist`='FKE')
AND
`stock_management1`.`APS_ms`>0
AND
(`stock_management1`.`st_prodcode`>='A'
AND
`stock_management1`.`st_prodcode`<='WZZZZZ999')
EXTERNAL JOIN
stock_management1.st_prodcode={?APS: ITEM1.ST_Prodcode}
AND
stock_management1.st_prodcode={?FCS: stocktake1.S_ProdCode}
AND

APS
SELECT `ITEM1`.`ST_SOH`, `ITEM1`.`ST_Prodcode`
FROM `aps`.`ITEM` `ITEM1`
WHERE `ITEM1`.`ST_Prodcode`={?pricing: stock_management1.st_prodcode}
EXTERNAL JOIN ITEM1.ST_Prodcode={?FKE: ITEM1_1.ST_Prodcode}
FKE
SELECT `ITEM1_1`.`ST_SOH`, `ITEM1_1`.`ST_Prodcode`

WHERE `ITEM1_1`.`ST_Prodcode`={?APS: ITEM1.ST_Prodcode}
EXTERNAL JOIN ITEM1_1.ST_Prodcode={?FCS: ITEM1_2.ST_Prodcode}
Thanks for comments imran & ralfbecher.
I found that the {? implies WHERE followed by the Database: table.field
Simple as that really.
I found that code in the bottom executes more than 10 minutes on my server. The server itself is quite good and I cannot find any suitable explanation for that.
I am using Joomla 1.6.3 the data is migrated from Joomla 1.5.23 using jUpgrade and MySQL client version is 5.1.45.
SELECT a.*,COUNT(DISTINCT m1.id) AS count_published,COUNT(DISTINCT m2.id) AS count_unpublished,COUNT(DISTINCT m3.id) AS count_trashed
FROM `j16_menu_types` AS a
LEFT JOIN `j16_menu` AS m1 ON m1.menutype = a.menutype AND m1.published = 1
LEFT JOIN `j16_menu` AS m2 ON m2.menutype = a.menutype AND m2.published = 0
LEFT JOIN `j16_menu` AS m3 ON m3.menutype = a.menutype AND m3.published = -2
GROUP BY a.id
ORDER BY a.id asc;
I would be very pleased if someone could help me since I am in big trouble :)
P.s. I have downloaded db and checked it on my computer - still the same, execution time is terrible. Is there any way to solve this problem? Or maybe to remove this sql part without significant changes in administration of joomla?
Well it was done quite faster on my PC but still the result is far from one which would satisfy my.
EDIT
Well, I've found a reported bug of this problem. http://joomlacode.org/gf/project/joomla/tracker/?action=TrackerItemEdit&tracker_item_id=24868
And the solution is:
CREATE INDEX idx_menu_published ON j16_menu (published);
However, I am not sure how this will affect administration. I there is anyone who could briefly tell how this part works and should I edit Joomla core code or just use the above code on mysql once. I am wondering if I should index table everytime when I edit menu.
A database / table Index is just a kind of yellow pages if you don't mind the comparison. It updates automatically. If this Index fixes your problem there is nothing else you need to do or do again. You can't break anything either - so just give it a try.
I have been getting an error "Unknown column 'guests_guest.id' in 'field list'" when i try to run the following:
SELECT guests_guest.id
FROM `guests_guest` full join
guests_guest_group
on guests_guest.id=guests_guest_group.guest_id
All the column& table names are correct. in fact, running just
SELECT guests_guest.id
FROM `guests_guest`
works just fine. I suspect there is a syntax issue I am missing. what am I doing wrong?
try:
SELECT gg.id
FROM `guests_guest` as gg
join guests_guest_group as ggg
on ggg.guest_id=gg.id
assuming guests_guest_group does not have an id column.
full join ?
Have you tried simply removing the full?
This not Oracle, it's MySQL, right? AFAIK, FULL JOIN is not implemented yet in MySQL.
The parser (because "full' is not a keyword it knows), evaluates your query as:
SELECT guests_guest.id
FROM guests_guest AS full <--- crucial note
JOIN guests_guest_group
ON guests_guest.id = guests_guest_group.guest_id
After that, guests_guest is not a name it knows, but it uses full as an alias for table guests_guest. That's why this error is produced.
If you really need FULL JOIN and not (INNER) JOIN, then search SO for how to implement FULL JOIN in MYSQL.
#rockerest: I guest so.
Two things I'd look at:
Spelling... I am a fast typer, but sometimes my fingers are dyslexic. Worst case, do a describe on each table and check column names against each other. Or, use the system-confessed column names and copy/paste.
Aliases... but, someone else has mentioned that.
So I guessed just one thing.
I am trying to troubleshoot a particular 'report' that gets generated on a PHP application running on a VOIP platform (billing related). The person that asked me to do this stated "it worked before" ;)
MySQL Error thrown:
1111: Invalid use of group function
Crazy thing is, it 'worked before' but stopped after awhile, they cannot place what event took place that might have created this bug. One thought is maybe MYSQL was upgraded? I googled the error, and can't seem to find a clear answer.
At first glance do you guys see anything wrong here in the SQL?
SELECT C.ResourceGroupID AS CustomerID, CS.CustomerName, SUM(C.IN_RndDuration/60) AS Minutes, SUM(CASE WHEN (C.OUT_Duration>0 AND C.IN_RndDuration>0) THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) AS Successfull, count(0) AS Attempts
FROM ws_call_current AS C
LEFT JOIN customer_rg AS V_RG ON
V_RG.RGId=C.OtherResourceGroupID AND V_RG.RateTableId IS NOT NULL AND V_RG.Direction='O'
LEFT JOIN customer AS V ON V.CustomerId=V_RG.CustomerId
LEFT JOIN customer_rg AS CS_RG ON CS_RG.RGId=C.ResourceGroupID AND CS_RG.RateTableId IS NOT NULL AND CS_RG.Direction='I'
LEFT JOIN customer AS CS ON CS.CustomerId=CS_RG.CustomerId
WHERE DATE_FORMAT(DATE_ADD(C.SeizeDate, INTERVAL TIME_TO_SEC(C.SeizeTime) SECOND), '%Y-%m-%d %H:%i:00') BETWEEN '2010-10-19 00:00:00' AND '2010-10-19 23:59:59'
AND C.SeizeDate BETWEEN '2010-10-19' AND '2010-10-19'
GROUP BY CS.CustomerName
ORDER BY SUM(C.IN_RndDuration/60) DESC
This is written for MYSQL 3/4 I believe, not yet sure. Just wanted to get some feedback.
From google results I find some people had success with fixing this by modifying the query to be a Having instead of a where?
Not sure. Anything look odd below?
Try including C.ResourceGroupID in your group by statement. You need to include all non-aggregate items in your select in your group by.
You shouldn't need a having in the code above.
I'm not sure how it could have worked before...
What I found after review is that the cause of this was simply a MySQL discrepancy. Initially the MySQL code was written for 5.0.51a, and the running MySQL version (it was somehow 'attempted' to be upgraded, was 5.0.21).
This version 'downgrade' was the cause of the failed SQL. I honestly don't know what the cause was other than we installed a new version of MySQL to just do a test (on a remote box) and it solved the issue (pointing from primary box to backup MySQL server.
Solution for this error: Version compatibility
