Hi Jacek & Gengliang,

let's take a look at the following query:

val pos = spark.read.parquet(prefix + "POSITION.parquet")
pos.createOrReplaceTempView("POSITION")
spark.sql("SELECT  POSITION.POSITION_ID  FROM POSITION POSITION JOIN
POSITION POSITION1 ON POSITION.POSITION_ID0 = POSITION1.POSITION_ID
").collect()

This query is working for me right now using spark 2.2.

Now we can try implementing the same logic with DataFrame API:

pos.join(pos, pos("POSITION_ID0")===pos("POSITION_ID")).collect()

I am getting the following error:

"Join condition is missing or trivial.

Use the CROSS JOIN syntax to allow cartesian products between these relations.;"

I have tried using alias function, but without success:

val pos2 = pos.alias("P2")
pos.join(pos2, pos("POSITION_ID0")===pos2("POSITION_ID")).collect()

This also leads us to the same error.
Am  I missing smth about the usage of alias?

Now let's rename the columns:

val pos3 = pos.toDF(pos.columns.map(_ + "_2"): _*)
pos.join(pos3, pos("POSITION_ID0")===pos3("POSITION_ID_2")).collect()

It works!

There is one more really odd thing about all this: a colleague of mine
has managed to get the same exception ("Join condition is missing or
trivial") also using original SQL query, but I think he has been using
empty tables.

Thanks,
Michael
