sql - 错误 : The used SELECT statements have a different number of columns

Question

为什么我得到 ERROR 1222 (21000): The used SELECT statements have a different number of columns from the following?

SELECT * FROM friends
LEFT JOIN users AS u1 ON users.uid = friends.fid1
LEFT JOIN users AS u2 ON users.uid = friends.fid2
WHERE (friends.fid1 = 1) AND (friends.fid2 > 1)
UNION SELECT fid2 FROM friends
WHERE (friends.fid2  = 1) AND (friends.fid1 < 1)
ORDER BY RAND()
LIMIT 6;

UNION(UNION 和UNION ALL)要求所有被 UNION 的查询都具有:

1. SELECT 子句中的列数相同
2. 列数据类型必须在每个位置匹配

您的查询有:

SELECT f.*, u1.*, u2.* ...
UNION 
SELECT fid2 FROM friends

我最简单的重写是:

   SELECT f.*, u.*
     FROM FRIENDS AS f
     JOIN USERS AS u ON u.uid = f.fid2
    WHERE f.fid1 = 1 
      AND f.fid2 > 1
UNION 
   SELECT f.*, u.*
     FROM FRIENDS AS f
     JOIN USERS AS u ON u.uid = f.fid1
    WHERE f.fid2  = 1 
      AND f.fid1 < 1
ORDER BY RAND()
LIMIT 6;

您已经两次 LEFT JOIN 到 USERS 表，但似乎没有使用该信息。
