datatables and SUM

[An7hony]

I am using datatables.net and want to include a SUM() on this query below:

 

$sQuery = "
SELECT SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS * FROM
(SELECT p.people_id, p.people_firstName, p.people_surname, p.people_address, p.people_town, p.people_county, p.people_postcode, SUM(r.relationships_id)
FROM People p LEFT JOIN Relationships r ON p.people_id = r.people_id) sel
$sWhere
$sOrder
$sLimit
";

 

This is only returning one row (should return around 2k records in the database)

 

I have tried adding GROUP BY

 

        $sQuery = "
SELECT SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS * FROM
(SELECT p.people_id, p.people_firstName, p.people_surname, p.people_address, p.people_town, p.people_county, p.people_postcode, SUM(r.relationships_id)
FROM People p LEFT JOIN Relationships r ON p.people_id = r.people_id GROUP BY r.relationships_id) sel
$sWhere
$sOrder  
$sLimit
";

 

Although this is throwing a JSON format error

 

Below is my full code:

<?php
    
    
    $aColumns = array('people_id', 'people_firstName', 'people_surname', 'people_address', 'people_town', 'people_county', 'people_postcode', 'relationships_id', 'people_id');

    /*

    $sLimit = "";
    if ( isset( $_GET['iDisplayStart'] ) && $_GET['iDisplayLength'] != '-1' )
    {
        $sLimit = "LIMIT ".intval( $_GET['iDisplayStart'] ).", ".

Can any one help?

Got it

Post your solution, because what you were trying with group by is wrong.
