make sure you don't have any leading or trailing spaces (or special characters) for the usernames being extracted.

also to debug, try to do a select username, count(1) then group by username

Are you getting duplicate usernames ?

Hi,

I have a query like

select distinct username from (select user as username from page_views pv union all select name as username from users u) ur;

But I see that result is not actually distinct. Am I missing something here?

Thanks,

Rakesh
