Yii2 GridView: SQLSTATE[23000]: Integrity constraint violation: 1052 Column 'id' in order clause is ambiguous

Question

could someone explain me why I'm getting this error? I've tried to search related information, but couldn't find what would be useful.

Here is my function:

$query = Recipient::find()->from('recipient')
            ->joinWith(['delivers'])
     
    $dataProvider = new ActiveDataProvider([
        'query' => $query,

    ]);

Error is:

SQLSTATE[23000]: Integrity constraint violation: 1052 Column 'id' in order clause is ambiguous

The SQL being executed was:

SELECT COUNT(*) FROM `recipient` 
LEFT JOIN `deliver` ON `recipient`.`id` = `deliver`.`recipient_id` 
ORDER BY `id` DESC

Answer 1

Try

Recipient::find()->from('recipient')->joinWith(['delivers'])->orderBy(['`recipient`.`id`' => SORT_ASC]);

In above example, column name is explicitly specified to avoid ambiguity error.

Code seems incomplete. Post more code, so we can help you.
