I suspect a lot of databases are like this, and it depends on
implementation of the DA. As an example, the original ZMySQLDA (circa
1.1.3), using MySQLmodule-1.4, probably returned all column names as
table.column. Versions of ZMySQLDA that use MySQLdb (i.e. the patched
1.1.3, 1.2, and 2.0.x) use just the column name. adr.id and fac.id have
the same column name, of course. I'm a little surprised that some DAs
would return column names with periods in them, since this would require
using the special namespace object to get at them, i.e. _['adr.id'].

The WHERE and ORDER BY clauses can use table.column references without any
problem. The issue is the names of the columns returned by a SELECT.

thanks, 
worked out fine, gets a bit tricky though :-)
as visible further down it is not needed in "where" and "order by"
clauses *ç%&?!

select
fac.id as fac_id,
adr.id as adr_id,
fac.name as fac_name,
adr.id as adr_id,
owner_adr_id,

from
fac,adr

where
fac.name like '%'
and adr.id=owner_adr_id
and fac.mod_id=mod.id

order by
fac.name

well zope uses the "name" option and a "column" option for the
dtml-sqltest.

that works quite well, if your variable name is different from your
database-column name.

thanks anyway

You probably need to alias the columns:
select adr.id as adr_id, fac.id as fac_id from fac, adr
and then refer to adr_id & fac_id from zope.

[can't remember why, but think it is due to the way columns are addressed
in libpq]

I believe Zope (not PostgreSQL) needs different names for columns. Otherwise, how 
would it choose the name of DTML variables? Try renaming the columns with AS in the 
ZSQL method.

[Zope] duplicate column name

2000-12-07 Thread Olaf Zanger

i there,

i work with postgreSQL 7.0.2, ZPyGreSQLDA-0-0-3 and zope 2.2.2 on suse
7.0 linux

when i try the line

-> select adr.id,fac.id from fac, adr

in the database connection test field

i get an error as follows:
->error type: value error
->error value: duplicate column name,id

it worked for me until now, because i used different names everywhere.
on psql it's no problem

did i just screw up some settings or is it ZPyGreSQL?
