      cannot perform an aggregate function on an expression containing an

      aggregate or subquery

      is the error i am getting while i am executing the query.

      SELECT name

      FROM (SELECT c.name, COUNT(p.clientid) p_count

      FROM client c, project p

      WHERE c.clientid = p.clientid

      GROUP BY c.name) a,

      (SELECT MAX(COUNT(clientid)) p_max

      FROM project

      GROUP BY clientid) b

      WHERE a.p_count = b.p_max

      clientid and name are the columns in client table

      and projectid and clientid are the columns in project table.

      name

      from

      (select c.name, count(p.id) p_count from clients c, projects p

      where c.id = p.cl_id

      group by c.name) a,

      (select max(count(id)) p_max from projects

      group by cl_id) b

      where a.p_count = b.p_max
