Question

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?

Answer 1

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.
