Come scritto nella documentazione
Devi specificare return_date e rental_date nella clausola select.
Ci sono due opzioni:
SELECT DISTINCT
customer.first_name,
rental.return_date,
rental.rental_date
FROM
rental,
customer
WHERE
rental.customer_id = customer.customer_id
GROUP BY
rental.rental_id
HAVING
(
rental.return_date - rental.rental_date
) =(
...
o
SELECT DISTINCT
customer.first_name,
(rental.return_date - rental.rental_date) as rental_duration
FROM
rental,
customer
WHERE
rental.customer_id = customer.customer_id
GROUP BY
rental.rental_id
HAVING
rental_duration =(
...
Entrambi dovrebbero funzionare bene.
