I am running a query as
SELECT LOCATION_OID,UPPER(NAME) AS LOCATION_NAME FROM LOCATION LEFT OUTER JOIN LOCATION_CHILD_LOCATION parent on (parent.LOCATION_OID = LOCATION.LOCATION_OID)
There are two table LOCATION and LOCATION_CHILD_LOCATION, Location has some 456 records and location_child_location has 4 records. The records in location_child_location are mapped with the location_oid from the parent i.e location table.
Why is this query giving error?
You need to specify the table from which you want the LOCATION_OID else the analyzer will confuse as to which table it has to look to fetch the data. Try this:
SELECT LOCATION.LOCATION_OID,UPPER(NAME) AS LOCATION_NAME
FROM LOCATION LEFT OUTER JOIN LOCATION_CHILD_LOCATION parent
on (parent.LOCATION_OID = LOCATION.LOCATION_OID)
Try below query where Naming is properly mentioned to avoid conflict in Table Namings:
SELECT l.LOCATION_OID,UPPER(NAME) AS LOCATION_NAME
FROM LOCATION as l
LEFT OUTER JOIN LOCATION_CHILD_LOCATION parent on (parent.LOCATION_OID = LOCATION.LOCATION_OID)
Use aliases for each tables instead of mixing both approach (with and without aliases):
SELECT L.LOCATION_OID
,UPPER(L.NAME) AS LOCATION_NAME
FROM LOCATION L
LEFT OUTER JOIN LOCATION_CHILD_LOCATION P ON P.LOCATION_OID = L.LOCATION_OID
Hope this will help.
You have to add the table name in front of the LOCATION_OID in the select clause:
SELECT LOCATION.LOCATION_OID,UPPER(NAME) AS LOCATION_NAME FROM LOCATION LEFT OUTER JOIN LOCATION_CHILD_LOCATION on (parent.LOCATION_OID = LOCATION.LOCATION_OID)

in query here i have https://www.db-fiddle.com/f/32Kc3QisUEwmSM8EmULpgd/1
SELECT p.prank, d.dare
FROM dares d
INNER JOIN pranks p ON p.id = d.prank_id
WHERE d.condo_id = 1;
i have one condo with id 1 and it have unique connection to dares that has connection to pranks and unique connection to condos_pranks
and i wanna have all unique pranks from both tables and i used this query above to get relation of
dares to pranks and expected result was L,M,N - Yes,No,Maybe and it is correct but i also wanna have those in condos_pranks which ids are 1,4,5,6 = L,O,P,Q
so i tried to join the table with left join because it might not have condos_pranks row
SELECT p.prank, d.dare
FROM dares d
INNER JOIN pranks p ON p.id = d.prank_id
LEFT JOIN condos_pranks pd ON pd.condo_id = d.condo_id AND pd.prank_id = p.id
WHERE d.condo_id = 1;
but result is same as first and what i want is
prank
dare
L
Yes
M
No
N
Maybe
O
No
P
No
Q
No
with default being No = 2 if prank_id of condos_pranks is not in dares
how to connect it?
This seems like an exercise in identifying extraneous information more than anything. You are unable to join something to a table that has no key, however if you know your default then you may use something like coalesce to identify the records where there was no data to join NULL and replace them with your default.
I mentioned in a comment above that this table schema makes little sense. You have keys all over the place that doing have all sorts of circular references. If this is your derived schema, consider stopping here and revisiting the relationships. If it is not and it is something educational, which I suspect it is, disregard and recognize the logical flaws in what you are working in. Perhaps consider taking the data provided and creating a new table schema that is more normalized and uses other tables to handle the many to many and one to many relationships.

SELECT
pranks.prank,
COALESCE(dares.dare, 'No')
FROM pranks LEFT OUTER JOIN
dares ON pranks.id = dares.prank_id
ORDER BY pranks.prank ASC;
clearlyclueless gave correct explanations
To achieve the result, the following SELECT can also be used:
SELECT
pranks.prank,
case
when dare is null then 'No'
else dare
end
FROM pranks LEFT OUTER JOIN
dares ON pranks.id = dares.prank_id
I've been trying to write some code in SQL, but it keeps coming up with a syntax error regarding the join, and I can't work out why.
SELECT `COUNTRY$`.country_name, `PARTNER$`.partner_name, count(member_id)
FROM `Member$`
Left Join `COUNTRY$`
ON `MEMBER$`.country_id=`COUNTRY$`.country_id
lEFT jOIN `PARTNER$`
on `MEMBER$`.partner_ID = `PARTNER$`.partner_ID
Group By country_name,Partner_name
Any help would be appreciated.
May have something to do with how your table names are in 'thisFormat$'. Also you did not specify which table member_id was coming and group by also doesn't specify which table country_name, partner_name was from.
Try putting aliases on the tablenames and see if that eliminates the problem
SELECT c.country_name, p.partner_name, count(m.member_id)
FROM `Member$` m
left join `COUNTRY$` c on c.country_id = m.country_id
left join `PARTNER$` p on p.partner_id = m.partner_id
GROUP BY c.country_name, p.partner_name
i am trying to implement inner and outer join in single query, i am not sure if i am doing the right way or wrong way, as i am not very good with queries.
So here it goes.
I have these following tables.
hrs_residentials
hrs_residential_utilities
hrs_utilities
hrs_utility_type
hrs_residentials:
ResID, ResType, ResNo - - -
1 2 001 - - -
hrs_residential_utilities:
RUID, UtilityID, ResID, - - - -
NULL NULL NULL
hrs_utilities:
UtilityID, UtilityTypeID, Number, ConsumerNumber, -, -, -
NULL NULL NULL NULL
hrs_utility_type:
UTID, UName, UDescription
1 PESCO PESCO Electric Meter
2 SNGPL Sui Northen Gas Pipe Lines
So i want to show in datatables the data, but what i want that data should show in table for hrs_residentials table, dosent matter if hrs_residential_utilities have data or not.
So i went for Left outer join and i got the result i wanted.
But after that when i tried to do inner for hrs_residential_utilities with hrs_utilities, i stopped getting results for hrs_residentials as well. As if we see hrs_residential do have the data inside table. I dont want inner join with hrs_residentials, i want to have inner join between hrs_residential_utilities and hrs_utilities.
Is it possible, or i am following the wrong approach here? Sorry i am not good. What will the Proper Query if anyone can help me with it.
This is the Query i have tried so far.
SELECT R.`ResID`,R.`ResNo`
FROM `hrs_residentials` R
LEFT OUTER JOIN `hrs_residential_utilities` RU
ON R.`ResID` = RU.ResID
INNER JOIN `hrs_utilities` U
ON RU.`UtilityID` = U.`UtilityID`
WHERE 1=1;
I stopped Getting Results from the hrs_residentials table After the Inner Join, but i am making Inner join between other two tables.
Try a subquery like this:
SELECT *
FROM `hrs_residentials` R
LEFT OUTER JOIN
(
SELECT * FROM
`hrs_residential_utilities` RU
INNER JOIN `hrs_utilities` U
ON RU.`UtilityID` = U.`UtilityID`
) AS subqyr
ON R.`ResID` = subqyr.`ResID`
run this query and view the results
SELECT R.ResID,R.ResNo
FROM hrs_residentials R
LEFT OUTER JOIN hrs_residential_utilities RU
ON R.ResID = RU.ResID
then run this query and view the results:
SELECT * FROM hrs_utilities
I suspect what you will find is that the RU.utilities ID does not match anything in the hrs_utilities.
Your query itself should return everything in hrs_residentials and join on any matching data from hrs_residential_utilities this may or may not return RU.ResID as null depending on whether it can match.
It then filters on whether RU.UtilityId matches with anything in the hrs_utilities table, this won't match on null items.
Thanks.

To elaborate, I'm selecting fields from item and locations tables. Connection is location_id from items table and id field from locations table. After join I'm doing WHERE statement on city_text field from locations table.
Is this legal action since I'm doing WHERE on field from second table?
SELECT uc_items.* ,
uc_users_store.id AS store_id,
uc_users_store.store_name,
uc_users_store.address,
uc_users_store.work_hours,
uc_locations.city_text AS city,
uc_locations.zipcode_text AS zipcode,
uc_locations.state_text AS STATE,
uc_locations.country_text AS country
FROM uc_items
LEFT OUTER JOIN uc_users_store ON uc_items.store_id=uc_users_store.id
LEFT OUTER JOIN uc_locations ON uc_users_store.store_location_id=uc_locations.id
WHERE uc_locations.city_text LIKE "%'.$city.'%"
AND uc_items.iname LIKE "%'.$description.'%"
AND uc_items.expiration_stamp > '.time().'
ORDER BY uc_items.posting_stamp DESC,
uc_items.discount DESC
It's legal, but might lead to unexpected results if the tested value is NULL. However, you could catch these situations by including an IS NULL check.
For instance
WHERE (col = 'value' OR col IS NULL)
Completely legal. However it would be a lot more logical to use INNER JOIN instead of LEFT JOIN since your WHERE statement is concerning the table you are joining to. A pseudo example:
SELECT t1.something, t2.somethin FROM first_table t1 INNER JOIN second_table t2 ON t1.some_id = t2.some_id_from_t1 WHERE t2.some_column='something'
I have this issue.
I need to get this fields from my matching table:
date, points
Then i have an epos_id field as well in my matching table..
I have another rbpos_epos table which has epos_id and location field.
I need to get the location from the rbpos_epos using joins.. something like this:
SELECT matching.date, matching.points, matching.time,matching.location,matching.epos_id,rbpos_epos.epos_id,rbpos_epos.location
FROM matching WHERE matching.user_id="'.$id_user.'"
LEFT JOIN rbpos_epos where matching.epos_id=rbpos_epos.epos_id;
SELECT
first_table.date,
first_table.points,
first_table.time,
first_table.location,
first_table.epos_id,
rbpos_epos.epos_id,
rbpos_epos.location
FROM
first_table
LEFT JOIN
rbpos_epos ON first_table.epos_id = rbpos_epos.epos_id
WHERE
first_table.user_id = "'.$id_user.'";
Use on instead where -
SELECT matching.date, matching.points, matching.time,matching.location,matching.epos_id,rbpos_epos.epos_id,rbpos_epos.location
FROM matching LEFT JOIN rbpos_epos ON matching.epos_id=rbpos_epos.epos_id
WHERE matching.user_id="'.$id_user.'";
Try this:
SELECT m.date, m.points, m.time,m.location,m.epos_id,re.epos_id,re.location
FROM matching m
LEFT JOIN rbpos_epos re ON m.epos_id=re.epos_id
WHERE m.user_id= 10
