Bug: 8610 http://cvs.horde.org/diff.php/ansel/lib/Faces.php?rt=horde&r1=1.18.2.6&r2=1.18.2.7&ty=u Tue, 29 Sep 2009 14:58:13 +0000 https://bugs.horde.org/ticket/8610#t56021 Seems like mySQL allows a column alias in the HAVING clause, while postgres and some others do not. Fixed for 1.1, thanks for the report. Tue, 29 Sep 2009 15:00:26 +0000 https://bugs.horde.org/ticket/8610#t56022
