Apache Spark reassigned SPARK-16161:
------------------------------------

    Assignee:     (was: Apache Spark)

> Ambiguous error message for unsupported correlated predicate subqueries
> -----------------------------------------------------------------------
>
>                 Key: SPARK-16161
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-16161
>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: SQL
>    Affects Versions: 2.0.0
>            Reporter: Ioana Delaney
>            Priority: Minor

> Subqueries with deep correlation fail with ambiguous error message.
> Problem repro:
> {code}
> Seq((1, 1), (2, 2)).toDF("c1", "c2").createOrReplaceTempView("t1")
> Seq((1, 1), (2, 2)).toDF("c1", "c2").createOrReplaceTempView("t2")
> Seq((1, 1), (2, 2)).toDF("c1", "c2").createOrReplaceTempView("t3")
> sql("select c1 from t1 where c1 IN (select t2.c1 from t2 where t2.c2 IN 
> (select t3.c2 from t3 where t3.c1 = t1.c1))").show()
> org.apache.spark.sql.AnalysisException: filter expression 'listquery()' of 
> type array<null> is not a boolean.;

> Based on testing, Spark supports one level of correlation in predicate and 
> scalar subqueries. An example of supported correlation is shown below.
> {code}
> select c1 from t1
> where c1 IN (select t2.c1 from t2 where t2.c2 IN (select t3.c2 from t3 where 
> t3.c1 = t2.c1))
> {code}
> If the query has deep correlation, such as in the first example, where the 
> inner subquery is correlated to the outer most query block, the above error 
> message is issued. 
> This PR changes the error message to the following one:
> {code}
> Correlated column in subquery cannot be resolved: t1.c1; line 5 pos 28
> org.apache.spark.sql.AnalysisException: Correlated column in subquery cannot 
> be resolved: t1.c1; line 5 pos 28
>   at 
> org.apache.spark.sql.catalyst.analysis.CheckAnalysis$class.failAnalysis(CheckAnalysis.scala:40)
> {code}
