Hi all,

I've just run into the above error (with the additional message "SQL state XX000"). I see from the following thread from 2003 -

  http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-sql/2003-12/msg00111.php

- that at the time it was considered a bug. I'm wondering if it was fixed, or am I doing something silly? I'm on 8.2.3 on WinXP.

I can supply the schema and some sample data if people would like to see them, but the short version is that I'm trying to do a LEFT JOIN between two views, each of which has further joins within it, both inner and outer (two in one view, three in the other).

Funny thing is, when I change the join (between the views) either to an INNER JOIN or a RIGHT JOIN, the query works - it only goes belly-up when I try a LEFT JOIN.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Ray.
