MySQL - Using COUNT(*) in the WHERE clause

Question

I am trying to accomplish the following in MySQL (see pseudo code)

SELECT DISTINCT gid
FROM `gd`
WHERE COUNT(*) > 10
ORDER BY lastupdated DES         


        

Answer 1

COUNT(*) can only be used with HAVING and must be used after GROUP BY statement Please find the following example:

SELECT COUNT(*), M_Director.PID FROM Movie
INNER JOIN M_Director ON Movie.MID = M_Director.MID 
GROUP BY M_Director.PID
HAVING COUNT(*) > 10
ORDER BY COUNT(*) ASC
