Description (last modified by Tim Graham)

Brief Summary

The brief overview is:

  • I have a second postgres database that I am reading data from.
  • It's data from a closed-source ticket system we are migrating away from.
  • I ran a manage.py inspectdb on it about 2 years ago and have been pulling stats from the data since then without trouble
  • The database structure looks *ugly* thanks to the closed-source designers, don't blame me... ;)
  • Upgrading from 1.8.4 to 1.9.2 broke one of the queries I was running

Query:

Company.objects.all().annotate(ticketcount=Count('srservice')).exclude(ticketcount=0).order_by('-ticketcount')

Error:

>>> Company.objects.all().annotate(ticketcount=Count('srservice')).exclude(ticketcount=0).order_by('-ticketcount')

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

models.py only showing the two related objects and snipping about 150 useless fields

      owner_id = models.IntegerField(blank=True, null=True)                                     
      company_recid = models.IntegerField(primary_key=True)

      owner_id = models.IntegerField(blank=True, null=True)

      --snip--

The models haven't changed since I ran inspectdb and manually set up ForeignKeys between the objects I wanted. As far as the database is concerned, there are no keys. Did I mention we are migrating away from this horrible system? ;)

I talked with @jarshwah in #django and he requested I file a bug.

Attempting to run the SQL generated by the queryset directly against the DB results in the same error from Postgres.

The version of PostgreSQL is 9.3.12 on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, compiled by gcc (Ubuntu 4.8.4-2ubuntu1~14.04.1) 4.8.4, 64-bit.

It looks like you are using a version of PostgreSQL that is not supported by the version of Django you are using.

Django 1.9 dropped support for PostgreSQL 9.0 and takes advantage of a feature in PostgreSQL 9.1 that allows grouping by only the selected tables primary keys.

Please re-open if you're experiencing the same issue on PostgreSQL 9.1

comment:2 by Simon Charette, 8 years ago

FWIW I also tried to reproduce against PostgreSQL 9.3 with no success and managed to reproduce against 9.0.

The simple fact that the error messages mentions "company"."owner_id" must be in the GROUP BY clause when "company"."company_recid" is already part of it is a strong indicator that's the underlying issue here.

Updated description with version info. I'm using PostgreSQL 9.3.12.

Can you reproduce with the sample app I provided? Else I'm afraid you'll need to provide more details.
