Laravel-datatables: Search Error Incorrect parameters in the call to native function 'LOWER'

@seven9 have you tried updating to the latest stable version v6.22.5?

Hi @yajra ,

I already updated and tried it.That problem is happen when I use table alias like
DB::table('items as it') and join many talbes with laravel query builder.

Thanks..

@seven9 , I just got the same issue, but resolved it eventually. The fix was in my JS.
I made sure the column properties match the alias and the actual columns.

Using your example:
data: 'name', name: 'name'
data: 'category', name: 'category'

data-value : _alias_
name-value : _actual column_

try:
data: 'name', name: 'it.name'
data: 'category', name: 'c.name'

Thanks @jedknyt and nice fix.

@jedknyt you've saved me a lot of time bro

@jedknyt thanks for sharing the solution. 👍

Query

$sales = \DB::table('driver_ride_transactions as drt')
            ->join('bookings', 'bookings.id', '=', 'drt.booking_id')
            ->join('businesses', 'businesses.id', '=', 'bookings.business_id')
            ->leftJoin('users as driver_u', 'drt.user_id', '=', 'driver_u.id')
            ->leftJoin('users as app_u', 'bookings.user_id', '=', 'app_u.id')
            ->select('drt.id', 'drt.status', 'driver_u.first_name as driver_name', 'app_u.first_name as app_user_name', 'businesses.name as destination', 'drt.created_at');

Javascript Code

$('#sales-table').DataTable({
            processing: true,
            serverSide: true,
            order: [ [4, 'desc'] ],
            ajax: '{{ route('admin:fetch:ride:transactions') }}',
            columns: [
                {data: 'id', name: 'drt.id'},
                {data: 'destination', name: 'destination'},
                {data: 'driver_name', name: 'driver_name'},
                {data: 'app_user_name', name: 'app_user_name'},
                {data: 'created_at', name: 'drt.created_at'},
                {data: 'status', name: 'drt.status'}
            ]
        });

Everything works perfectly, but Still getting this error while searching _Search Error Incorrect parameters in the call to native function 'LOWER'_

What am I missing? @yajra @jedknyt ?

@siddharthghedia since you are using join, I think you should include the table name too on each columns and avoid using the alias on name values. Use the actual column value.

columns: [
                {data: 'id', name: 'drt.id'},
                {data: 'destination', name: 'drt.destination'},
                {data: 'driver_name', name: 'driver_u.first_name'},
                {data: 'app_user_name', name: 'app_u.first_name'},
                {data: 'created_at', name: 'drt.created_at'},
                {data: 'status', name: 'drt.status'}
            ]

@yajra Thank you so much for replying, I tried the same code which you wrote, but still gave me the same error and you asked not use alias on name right? But here driver_u and app_u are the aliases already. How could I solve it? Thank you in advance.

                {data: 'status', name: 'drt.status'}
            ]

IT works for me. Thank you so much
