Hello,
we have got a problem when executing some queries of tpch benchmark on
PostgreSQL.
For instance, the postgres parser do not accept the syntax of the query
number 9:
select nation2 , o_year, sum(amount) as sum_profit
from
(
select
n_name as nation2,
extract(year from o_orderdate) as o_year,
l_extendedprice * (1 - l_discount) -
ps_supplycost * l_quantity as
amount
from
part,
supplier,
lineitem,
partsupp,
orders,
nation
where
s_suppkey = l_suppkey
and ps_suppkey = l_suppkey
and ps_partkey = l_partkey
and p_partkey = l_partkey
and o_orderkey = l_orderkey
and s_nationkey = n_nationkey
and p_name like '%green%'
) as profit
group by
nation2,
o_year
order by
nation2,
o_year desc;
Postgres returns the following message:
ERROR: parser: parse error at or near "select"
We have tried to solve the problem and we have seen that simplifying,
the real problem shows up when trying to solve a query like this one:
select * from (select * from supplier); (for example)
What's the problem?
We've heard about some variants of TPCH queries, do you know if there is
any of these which could solve our problem?
Thanks in advance,
