Hi,

 

   I need some help with upsert.

 

   Some info on what I want to do:

 

   Each day I create a table for my firewall logs.   I have one entry for
one occurrence of all the field except sum, which is the number of
occurrence I have of each log that match all the field. My table has the
following field:
firewall,action,src_zone,src_ip,dst_zone,dst_ip,proto,port,hex1,hex2,sum

   

  Each day I want to copy the last 7 days into one table so I have one table
with the last 7 days of logs.

 

  So I want to copy the data from 7 tables into 1.  If the row does not
exist I just insert and if the row already exist I just update the sum
(existing sum + new sum).

  

  Public.test is the table I use for the last 7 days logs.

  daily.daily_20131202 is table for 1 day.

  I will run this command 7 times with different daily table.

 

WITH upsert as 

(update public.test T set
firewall=S.firewall,action=S.action,src_zone=S.src_zone,src_ip=S.src_ip,dst_
zone=S.dst_zone,dst_ip=S.dst_ip,proto=S.proto,port=S.port,hex1=S.hex1,hex2=S
.hex2,sum=T.sum+S.sum from daily.daily_20131202 S where
(T.firewall=S.firewall and T.action=S.action and T.src_zone=S.src_zone and
T.src_ip=S.src_ip and T.dst_zone=S.dst_zone and T.dst_ip=S.dst_ip and
T.proto=S.proto and T.port=S.port and T.hex1=S.hex1 and T.hex2=S.hex2)
RETURNING * ) 

insert into public.test select * from daily.daily_20131202 a WHERE NOT
EXISTS (SELECT * FROM upsert b WHERE a.firewall=b.firewall and
a.action=b.action and a.src_zone=b.src_zone and a.src_ip=b.src_ip and
a.dst_zone=b.dst_zone and a.dst_ip=b.dst_ip and a.proto=b.proto and
a.port=b.port and a.hex1=b.hex1 and a.hex2=b.hex2);

 

When I run the command I get an  error 

ERROR:  column reference "firewall" is ambiguous

LINE 3: ... a WHERE NOT EXISTS (SELECT * FROM upsert b WHERE b.firewall...

 

Any idea what I am doing wrong?

 

Also, is there an easier way to do that?

 

Thanks for the help.
