There are lots of answers for "where not exists" type inserts that expect you to specify the columns to insert. I have over 400 columns, and the two tables have identical schema.
There are also lots of answers for unknown column, but not one that I can find in an insert where not exists statement. I can't understand the problem and hope someone here can help.
Here is the sql fiddle http://sqlfiddle.com/#!9/70a34b/1
Here is one of several queries I've tried:
INSERT INTO test1
SELECT * FROM test2 b
WHERE NOT EXISTS(SELECT * FROM test2 c WHERE test1.go = c.go);
Just flip your table names around. Remember, you're trying to insert into table1 FROM table2 where the values are not already in TABLE1.
Change the query to:
INSERT INTO test1
SELECT * FROM test2 b
WHERE NOT EXISTS(SELECT * FROM test1 c WHERE c.go = b.go);
