Description: Bug in select with Union
Details:

I think there is a problem with the select statement with Union.

Firstable, I create 3 tables (tuserprofileopp, tprofileopp and
tgroupprofileopp).

CREATE TABLE tuserprofileopp
(
internalkey int8 NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT tuserprofileopp_pkey PRIMARY KEY (internalkey)
);

CREATE TABLE tprofileopp
(
internalkey int8 NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT tprofileopp_pkey PRIMARY KEY (internalkey)
);

CREATE TABLE tgroupprofileopp
(
internalkey int8 NOT NULL,
manager_id int8,
CONSTRAINT tgroupprofileopp_pkey PRIMARY KEY (internalkey)
);

Then, I write this request:
select *
from
(
select
internalKey, null as manager_id, 0 as clazz_
from TProfileOPP
union select
internalKey, null as manager_id, 1 as clazz_
from TUserProfileOPP
union select
internalKey, manager_id, 2 as clazz_
from TGroupProfileOPP
)
this_;

The result is "ERROR: UNION types text and bigint cannot be matched"

If I do
"select *
from
(
select
internalKey, null as manager_id, 0 as clazz_
from TProfileOPP
union select
internalKey, manager_id, 2 as clazz_
from TGroupProfileOPP
)
this_;", It works.

Thank you.
