>             Project: Derby
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: SQL
>    Affects Versions: 10.7.1.1, 10.8.1.2, 10.8.2.2, 10.8.3.0, 10.9.1.0, 10.10.1.1

> Given this table:
> ij> connect 'jdbc:derby:memory:db;territory=en;collation=TERRITORY_BASED;create=true';
> ij> create table t(x varchar(10));
> 0 rows inserted/updated/deleted
> ij> insert into t values 'a' || 'b';
> 1 row inserted/updated/deleted
> The following query works:
> ij> select * from t where x = 'ab';
> X         
> ----------
> ab        
> 1 row selected
> However, if the string is generated with the concatenation operator, an exception is thrown:
> ij> select * from t where x = 'a' || 'b';
> ERROR 42818: Comparisons between 'VARCHAR (TERRITORY_BASED)' and 'CHAR (UCS_BASIC)' are not supported. Types must be comparable. String types must also have matching collation. If collation does not match, a possible solution is to cast operands to force them to the default collation (e.g. SELECT tablename FROM sys.systables WHERE CAST(tablename AS VARCHAR(128)) = 'T1')
> I'd expect the two queries to be equivalent.
