Using MySQL Debug, I get the following errors on every Front-Side page of my site:

SELECT * FROM *****_users u, *****_user_profile p WHERE u.uid = p.profileid AND (level > '0') ORDER BY user_regdate DESC LIMIT 0, 5
Error number: 1052
Error message: Column: 'user_regdate' in order clause is ambiguous
( 0.000338)
SELECT * FROM *****_users u, *****_user_profile p WHERE u.uid = p.profileid AND (level > '0') ORDER BY user_regdate DESC LIMIT 0, 5
Error number: 1052
Error message: Column: 'user_regdate' in order clause is ambiguous
( 0.00014)


XOOPS Version: 2.2.1
MySQL Version: 4.0.24-standard
PHP Version: 4.3.11

Could someone explain to me what these errors are and how to get rid of them?

Thanks,

James

There is a user_regdate field in both the users table and the user_profile table, so MySQL don't know which one to order by.

Should I delete one of the fields?

I'm not normally keen on deleting MySQL fields, but obviously something didn't go right during the upgrade.

Thanks Mithrandir. BTW... Welcome Back!

In 2.2.x, user_regdate should only be in the user_profile table. The update procedure should have copied its value from the users table, and then dropped the column from the users table.

You might examine the columns in both the users and user_profile tables, to see if the right columns are there, and that the user_profile column values look right.

If they look ok, drop the column users.user_regdate (or rename it to something like xxxxuser_regdate). I suggest backing up the database first.

Yup, just as you described it. I verified that the data was the same in both fields. Backed up my DB and dropped the field from *****_users. Not only did it stop the MySQL debug messages, but my New Members block now works.

I'm going through my entire site now with MySQL debug on seeing if I can find anymore similar problems that might be causing other bugs I've run into.

Thanks a million Dave_L!

Best Regards,
