fails with the error:

Error: could not allocate space

ErrorCode: 0

I have plenty of disk space and available ram (32GB)

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:

1.Create the table unitTestDontDelete with the records in description
2. run the query in description

Actual Results:

Error: could not allocate space
SQLState: HY001
ErrorCode: 0
Error: COLnew:tt error
SQLState: 22000
ErrorCode: 0

Why did you close this bug? It's not been fixed.

I realised it is caused by a duplicate column in the order by clause. Feel free to re-open it, if relevant.
