How do i get the list of people not in an inner join?












0















I am trying to get the exact list
of people who are not part of an inner list. I am not sure if its another join, a NOT EXISTS or a NOT IN function that i should use:



 SELECT *
FROM db.user
WHERE NOT EXISTS (SELECT DISTINCT email, m.id, u.status
FROM db.member m
INNER JOIN db.user u
ON m.id=u.member_id
)


Unfortunately the output is blank when I run this query. Althought about 1 million rows should appear.

You can try the query below, which is including a left outer join instead



select distinct u.*
from db.user u
left outer join db.member m on m.id = u.member_id
where m.id is null


Or if u insist using inner join, then try:



;with cte as (
SELECT DISTINCT m.id,
FROM db.member m
INNER JOIN db.user u
ON m.id=u.member_id
)
select *
from db.users u
where u.member_id not in (select id from cte)

You have used U as an alias but it is not defined. Also, you don't need to JOIN when you using EXISTS(). This is correct usage for EXISTS():



 SELECT *
FROM db.user U
WHERE NOT EXISTS (SELECT 1
FROM db.member m
WHERE m.id=u.member_id
)
