Hello,
I am trying to count the number of unique records that exist in my database
based on a given criteria.  My table looks like this:

TABLE_HOST
id
host
path_a
path_b


The field host will have duplicates like:

myway.com
hisway.com
hisway.com
hisway.com
someway.com
someway.com
yourway.com

The given criteria is:  only count the records where path_a is blank
(path_a='')

Here is the query I'd like to run (which fails - but is exactly what I need
for a query):
select sum(count(host)) from TABLE_HOST where path_a='' group by host

This is the next query I tried... (nothing distinct about the result of a
count)
select distinct count(host) from TABLE_HOST where path_a=''


So, is it possible to perform this query?
Karl
