Alright, I've got a little bit of a problem with this query. This is what the current query looks like ( I know I'm doing it wrong, I just don't know how to fix it.. I'm not that familiar with the LEFT JOIN/subquery stuff.. )
select cluster.cid, cluster.isp, cluster.country_id-200000 as Country_ID, cluster.site_id, -> count(compaq.id) as Compaq, -> count(foundry.id) as Foundry, -> count(netapp.id) as Netapp, -> count(cisco.id) as Cisco -> from cluster LEFT JOIN compaq on cluster.cid = compaq.cid and compaq.active="Y" -> LEFT JOIN netapp ON cluster.cid = netapp.cid and netapp.active="Y" -> LEFT JOIN foundry ON cluster.cid = foundry.cid and foundry.active="Y" -> LEFT JOIN cisco ON cluster.cid = cisco.cid and cisco.active="Y" -> where ( cluster.ctype="Streaming" and cluster.active="Y" ) -> group by cluster.cid; Basically I have a 'cluster' table, with a 'cid' key. Then I have 4 equipment tables ( foundry, netapp, cisco, compaq ) that link back to the cluster table via the 'cid'. What I'd like is to get all the clusters and a count of each piece of ACTIVE equipment that links to it.. ( we have equipment linked to the cluster table that is considered inactive.. I do not want to include those in the query. ) Something that would look like this - +-----+-----------+----------+-------+------+-------+------+-------+ | cid | isp |Country_ID|site_id|Compaq|Foundry|Netapp| Cisco | +-----+----------------------+-------+------+-------+------+-------+ | 287 | Concentric| 200| 31 | 4 | 2 | 1 | 1 | The problem is I end up with something like this - +-----+-----------+----------+-------+------+-------+------+-------+ | cid | isp |Country_ID|site_id|Compaq|Foundry|Netapp| Cisco | +-----+----------------------+-------+------+-------+------+-------+ | 287 | Concentric| 200| 31 | 8 | 8 | 8 | 8 | It seems to be combining all the counts. I can see *why* it's doing that in the query, but I'm not sure what the correct statement would be to fix this? I could do this with perl/dbi, but I'm trying to stay away from doing 5 queries to get this information. Any help appreciated.
