When a query is completed and executed, query execution errors are sometimes encountered as shown below.




ERROR: subquery in FROM must have an alias

LINE 2: from (

^

HINT: For example, FROM (SELECT ...) [AS] foo.




What's the difference between writing a "as foo" in the subquery and not writing it?

  • Simply because its a derived table, not all DB require this. It doesnt matter if you add the as or not, but it has to be named in sql (because its enforced) even if you are not using it...
