Hi,

After moving an existing application to Oracle 9i. I have encountered some problems with the SQL being generated from WebObjects, it generates the following SQL:

SELECT DISTINCT t0.academicGeneral, t0.accessLevel, t0.activeNameID, t0.brandNewRecord, RTRIM(t0.building), t0.countryID, t0.degreeID, t0.email, RTRIM(t0.fax), t0.fileName, t0.filePath, t0.groupID, t0.hasFile, t0.personCode, RTRIM(t0.phone), RTRIM(t0.room), t0.pkID, RTRIM(t0.serialNumber), RTRIM(t0.staffNumber), RTRIM(t0.title), t0.tobeShown, t0.type, t0.updatedNightly, RTRIM(t0.URL), RTRIM (t0.wumpusID) FROM PERSON t0, PSN_NAME T1 WHERE (t0.type = 3 AND t0.accessLevel <> -1) AND t0.activeNameID = T1.pkID ORDER BY T1.lastName ASC, T1.firstName ASC


This SQL produces an error saying:

Next exception:SQL State:42000 -- error code: 1791 -- msg: ORA-01791: not a SELECTed expression

[snip]

If I remove the DISTINCT or the ORDER BY then it works fine. Is there any reason the above SQL should not work and if so why is WO generating incorrect SQL?

Google turned this up for the oracle error.

http://ora-01791.ora-code.com/


ORA-01791: not a SELECTed expression
Cause: There is an incorrect ORDER BY item. The query is a SELECT DISTINCT query with an ORDER BY clause. In this context, all ORDER BY items must be constants, SELECT list expressions, or expressions whose operands are constants or SELECT list expressions.
Action: Remove the inappropriate ORDER BY item from the SELECT list and retry the statement.


Some "discussion" about the issue here..
