SELECT, COUNT and Inner Join
Posted by: Geir Anthonsen

I am not to familiar with databases, because I work with wifi networks.

I have imported a text file with all the issues on the network into a SQLite database.

There are 2 tables:

______________________________________________________________________

"Issues" with a "ap_mac_adress" field

and

"AP_names" with a "ap_mac_adress" and a "ap_name" field.

______________________________________________________________________

I try to run a sql query that will count all unique ap_mac_adress in Issues.

This does the job:

SELECT DISTINCT ap_mac_address AS [Ap MAC Adresse], COUNT(ap_mac_address) AS Antall
FROM issues
GROUP BY ap_mac_address
ORDER BY Antall DESC

Result:
AP MAC Adresse Antall
xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:b2 1254
xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:f17 1021
xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:g4 723


But - I would like to have the name of the ap points, not their adress.

And when I do this, i get an error:

SELECT AP_Names, DISTINCT ap_mac_adress AS [Ap MAC Adresse], COUNT(ap_mac_adress) AS Antall
FROM issues
INNER JOIN aksesspunkter ON aksesspunkter.ap_mac_address = issues.ap_mac_adress
GROUP BY ap_mac_adress
ORDER BY Antall DESC

I think it has to do with the AP_Names in the select part, and GROUP by ap_mac_adress.

Can someone please guide me in the right direction??
