Hello

it works to me:

postgres=# create table c1(n varchar, e integer);
CREATE TABLE
postgres=# create table c2(n2 varchar, e integer);
CREATE TABLE
postgres=# insert into c1 values('aa',1),('bb',2),('aa',3);
INSERT 0 3
postgres=# insert into c2 values('aa',1),('bb',2),('aa',3);
INSERT 0 3
postgres=# select * from c1 natural join c2;
 e | n  | n2
---+----+----
 1 | aa | aa
 2 | bb | bb
 3 | aa | aa
(3 rows)

postgres=# select * from c1 natural join c2 where c1.e = 3;
 e | n  | n2
---+----+----
 3 | aa | aa
(1 row)

postgres=# select n, count(*) from c1 natural join c2 where c1.e = 3 group by n;
 n  | count
----+-------
 aa |     1
(1 row)

postgres=# select n, count(*) from c1 natural join c2  group by n;
 n  | count
----+-------
 bb |     1
 aa |     2
(2 rows)

postgres=# select n2, count(*) from c1 natural join c2  group by n2;
 n2 | count
----+-------
 bb |     1
 aa |     2
(2 rows)


can you send structure and execution plan?
Thank you for your request, the execution plan is the one from "explain" (I think) but what is the "structure plan"?
The problema was a bug on my import in new database!

To avoid future error of this type, how can I ask to postgres wath column is it using in "natural join"?

tanks again
and sorry for my error

I am using this query in 8.3beta4 (compiled from source) in MacOS X 10.5.1

SELECT webName,count(*) FROM contenitore NATURAL JOIN cartellino WHERE

this is the result
                       webName                      | count

(10 rows)

but 36679 is the total number of row of the table.
The same query in 8.1.4 retrieves the aspected result (the number of
elements for each webName).

Is this a bug or a change in the semantic of SQL?

thank you
Edoardo
