I am working on an open source project called PHP-Bouncer, and I'm having issues with a MySQL Query I am writing for it. Basically we have three tables: BouncerRoles, PageInRole, and BouncerPageOverrides. BouncerRoles contains access levels, and the other two tables link back to BouncerRoles via Foreign Key and provide multiple entries of additional data. I have written the following query to attempt to pull all of the role data I need all at once:
select BouncerRoles.RoleID, BouncerRoles.RoleName,
GROUP_CONCAT(PageInRole.PageName separator '|') as ProvidedPages,
GROUP_CONCAT(CONCAT(BouncerPageOverrides.OverriddenPage,'&',BouncerPageOverrides.OverridingPage) separator '|') as OverriddenPages
from BouncerRoles join PageInRole on BouncerRoles.RoleID = PageInRole.RoleID
join BouncerPageOverrides on BouncerRoles.RoleID = BouncerPageOverrides.RoleID
group by BouncerRoles.RoleID;
The Goal of this query is to provide the RoleID, RoleName, a pipe delimited list of provided pages, and a pipe delimited list of overrides (in the form of overriddenpage&overridingpage). Everything works except the last column of the query, which repeats the entries it finds over and over like this (output in CSV format):
RoleID,RoleName,ProvidedPages,OverriddenPages

Is there something I've done wrong in my query to cause this?
You are probably joining a table with two tables on 1..n relationships, producing duplicate results.
Use either
GROUP_CONCAT( DISTINCT ...)orUse two subqueries: in each one use
GROUP_CONCAT()with group by on each of the 2 tables. Then join the two subqueries and the main table.
