problem using aggregate functions with multipul table joins
My goal is to make an aggregate function (sum) and group the elements , but there is an error
this is all the steps that i have done
1- first step code
SELECT ca.question_id , ca.choice_0 ,ca.choice_1 ,ca.choice_2 ,ca.choice_3 ,ca.choice_4 ,q.headline_id FROM closed_an开发者_高级运维swers ca
INNER JOIN questions q ON ca.question_id = q.id
INNER JOIN headline h ON q.headline_id = h.id
INNER JOIN forms f ON h.form_id = f.id
WHERE f.id = 2
the result

2- now i want to aggregate the choices and group them by headline id but when i write
SELECT sum(ca.choice_0) ,sum(ca.choice_1) ,sum(ca.choice_2) ,sum(ca.choice_3) ,sum(ca.choice_4) ,q.headline_id FROM closed_answers ca
INNER JOIN questions q ON ca.question_id = q.id
INNER JOIN headline h ON q.headline_id = h.id
INNER JOIN forms f ON h.form_id = f.id
GROUP BY q.headline_id
WHERE f.id = 2
the error is
A Database Error Occurred
Error Number: 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 'WHERE f.id = 2' at line 6
SELECT sum(ca.choice_0) ,sum(ca.choice_1) ,sum(ca.choice_2) ,sum(ca.choice_3) ,sum(ca.choice_4) ,q.headline_id FROM closed_answers ca INNER JOIN questions q ON ca.question_id = q.id INNER JOIN headline h ON q.headline_id = h.id INNER JOIN forms f ON h.form_id = f.id GROUP BY q.headline_id WHERE f.id = 2
PS : it works when i remove the group by keyword and sum all the choices

Put the GROUP BY
after the WHERE
