How to avoid error "aggregate functions are not allowed in WHERE"

Solution 1:

Replace WHERE clause with HAVING, like this:

SELECT o.ID ,  count(p.CAT)
FROM Orders o
INNER JOIN Products p ON o.P_ID = p.P_ID 
GROUP BY o.ID
HAVING count(p.CAT) > 3;

HAVING is similar to WHERE, that is both are used to filter the resulting records but HAVING is used to filter on aggregated data (when GROUP BY is used).

Solution 2:

Use HAVING clause instead of WHERE

Try this:

SELECT o.ID, COUNT(p.CAT) cnt
FROM Orders o
INNER JOIN Products p ON o.P_ID = p.P_ID 
GROUP BY o.ID HAVING cnt > 3
