MariaDB Error 1349: View SELECT Subquery FROM
Description
Error 1349 occurs in MariaDB when you try to define a `VIEW` whose `SELECT` statement includes a subquery within its `FROM` clause. This specific syntax is not permitted for view definitions in MariaDB (and MySQL), although it is valid in standard SQL for regular queries.
Error Message
View's SELECT contains a subquery in the FROM clause
Known Causes
3 known causesMariaDB View Definition Constraint
MariaDB's `CREATE VIEW` statement has a specific limitation that disallows subqueries (derived tables) directly in the `FROM` clause of the view's defining `SELECT` statement.
Overly Complex View Logic
Attempting to encapsulate advanced query patterns, such as derived tables, directly into a `VIEW` definition that exceeds MariaDB's allowed syntax for views.
Database Migration Differences
Migrating SQL view definitions from other database systems (like PostgreSQL, SQL Server, Oracle) that permit derived tables within a view's `FROM` clause without modification.
