Hi there,

I have two rather simple queries, which I would to UNION, but somehow I always get an error message for the UNION ("ERROR: syntax error at or near "UNION"")

SELECT
ORDER BY
LIMIT 1

UNION ALL
...

I think it's complaining about the order by/limit. The UNION is part of the standard SELECT grammar and has its own ORDER BY (if you see what I'm getting at).

Try SELECT * FROM (SELECT ... ORDER BY) AS foo UNION ...
