[jira] [Commented] (SPARK-14666) Using DISTINCT on a UDF (like CONCAT) is not supported

["Dominic Ricard (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-14666?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15243455#comment-15243455 ] 

Dominic Ricard commented on SPARK-14666:
----------------------------------------

It appears that the order by clause is expecting the column name. The proper query looks like this:

{noformat}
select
  distinct concat(column_1, ' : ', column_2) as `column1`
from
  table
order by
  `column1`;
{noformat}
