> -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: DERBY-6983
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-6983
> Project: Derby
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: SQL
> Affects Versions: 10.14.1.0
> Reporter: Lukas Eder
> Priority: Major
>
> The following query is not allowed in Derby:
> {code:java}
> SELECT *
> FROM sys.systables
> WHERE tablename IN (
> SELECT *
> FROM (
> SELECT 'SYSTABLES' t
> FROM sysibm.sysdummy1
> ) t
> ){code}
> The error I'm getting is:
> {code:java}
> 'SELECT *' only allowed in EXISTS and NOT EXISTS subqueries.{code}
> In this case, it is "obvious" that the asterisk (also a qualified asterisk:
> t.*) expands to exactly one column and the query should be perfectly fine.
> I'm not aware of any other databases with such a restriction.
