MySQL OUTER JOIN syntax error

问题

Maybe a facepalm for you guys, but as a SQL query newbie, I'm having a syntax issue. Anyone know what's wrong?

SELECT * FROM company C
OUTER JOIN company_address A ON C.company_id = A.company_id
WHERE A.company_id IS NULL

Giving the error:

#1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds 
to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 
'OUTER JOIN company_address A ON C.company_id = A.company_id WHERE A.address_id 
' at line 2

回答1:

In MySQL you should use LEFT OUTER JOIN or RIGHT OUTER JOIN. There is no just OUTER JOIN. If you need FULL OUTER JOIN in MySql you can use UNION of LEFT JOIN and RIGHT JOIN

回答2:

Try

SELECT * FROM company C
LEFT JOIN company_address A ON C.company_id = A.company_id
WHERE A.company_id IS NULL

回答3:

You have to write LEFT JOIN,RIGHT JOIN,INNER JOIN or FULL OUTER JOIN instead of only OUTER JOIN.

There is also one error with your table name there shouldn't be space between the letters of a table like this [company C- it should be named as company_C]

I hope that will be work..All the best!
