I have a test set with the following real data 1.jpg 0 5DA4-CD3A-62DE-2F9D-4BD7-6E24-EACE-936D 1.jpg 1 5DA4-CD3A-62DE-2F9D-4BD7-6E24-EACE-936D 1.jpg 2 5DA4-CD3A-62DE-2F9D-4BD7-6E24-EACE-936D 1.jpg 3 5DA4-CD3A-62DE-2F9D-4BD7-6E24-EACE-936D 1.jpg 4 890B-4533-447E-6461-070E-FDB7-799E-1FB8
SELECT * FROM files WHERE hash NOT IN (SELECT hash FROM files WHERE set=0) returns an empty data set, but should return the item from set 4 The following does work select * from files where set > 0 and not exists (select * from files a where hash=files.hash and set=0); which is great and solves my problem, but I cant see why the first query doesn't work.
