Hi guys when iam trying to run this query its showing above error so can you please help me out to solve this problem

Answer : Oracle Sql Query error

the column SECONDS_IN_WAIT is present in both views contained in your query, so you need to specify which one you want. So, if you want the one from V$SESSION_WAIT then use the following:

                       
         
           
           
             select a.event, 
	count(*) cnt,
	min(a.SECONDS_IN_WAIT) min_wait,
	round(avg(a.SECONDS_IN_WAIT)) avg_wait,
	max(a.SECONDS_IN_WAIT) max_wait
from v$session_wait a, v$session b
where a.sid > 7
    and b.sid = a.sid
    and b.status = 'ACTIVE'
group by a.event
order by 2 desc;
