错误1052我试图使用内部联接联接表，但是我一直收到此消息

Question

Im looking to join two tables together using inner join but i keep getting this error saying that 'column 'isbn' in field list is ambiguous'. Ive seen a few questions about this but none of them solved my problem.

SELECT isbn, title
FROM book 
INNER JOIN copy ON book.isbn = copy.isbn
    WHERE duration = '7';

Answer 1

I can see you have this column isbn in both copy and book table. So you have to choose which of this isbn columns is selected. so you should have

SELECT book.isbn , title
FROM ....

Or

SELECT copy.isbn , title
FROM ....

Answer 2

You are selecting a column that is present on both tables, so SQL can't distinguish which one to select. You have to specify it like this:

SELECT book.isbn, title
FROM book 
INNER JOIN copy ON book.isbn = copy.isbn
    WHERE duration = '7';

or

SELECT copy.isbn, title
FROM book 
INNER JOIN copy ON book.isbn = copy.isbn
    WHERE duration = '7';
