I cannot create a view with subquery and join clase.



Please describe a way to repeat the problem.   Please try to provide a
concise reproducible example, if at all possible:

/** this one works OK */

create view VOrderTest as
select
or_order_nr,

(select sum(sp_qty)
     from TOrdSpecif
     where sp_or_order_nr=or_order_nr)
as or_order_qty
from TOrder;

/** this one fails with
   ERROR:  find_expr_references_walker: bogus varno 3
*//

create view VOrderTest1 as
select
or_order_nr,

(select sum(sp_qty)
     from TOrdSpecif
