fix #8252
regression from #6957
The current code works with MySQL 8+ (as well as PostgreSQL and SQLite), but not with MariaDB, because MariaDB does not support CTE (Common Table Expression) fully (which I was not aware of)...

On my instance, it looks like i do not have the banner notifying of new articles anymore, although the new articles do appear when I refresh the page. Would that be what's fixed by this PR?
If yes, it unfortunately does not resolve the problem for me.

I was also having the issue in the bug report (tons of SQL errors for 'updateCachedValues' during refreshes), and have just checked out this branch. I will keep an eye on my logs for a while, but is there anything specific that I can do to trigger the hopefully-fixed functionality? Any specific logs you're looking for?

Edit: Also, for what it's worth, I am on Debian 13.2, PHP 8.4.15, and MySQL 8.0.43. I see mention of this being a MariaDB specific fix, but I am not using Maria and definitely have the issue.

Edit 2: After some manual refreshing, I am no longer seeing the errors in my logs. Promising! Haven't paid attention to whether the 'New Articles' banner is appearing properly or not yet, though.

@Alwaysin Please check whether you have any remaining errors in your logs

@WillPresley Thanks for the feedback. The bug was on some specific databases regarding updating the number of unread articles, and total number of articles. Please keep an eye on your logs.

Merging fast, as it is a critical regression. Please continue testing on the edge branch.

I have this:

[Wed, 26 Nov 2025 16:10:17 +0000] [error] --- SQL error FreshRSS_FeedDAO::updateCachedValues["42000",1064,"You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MariaDB server version for the right syntax to use near 'UPDATE `freshrss_alwaysin_feed`\nLEFT JOIN entry_counts ON entry_counts.id_fee...' at line 10"]

@Alwaysin What DB version? And this is on the freshly updated edge branch?

@Alwaysin What DB version? And this is on the freshly updated edge branch?

10.11.13-0ubuntu0.24.04.1

And yes, freshly updated!

I will likely bow out after this comment in favor of tracking down what's happening for others, but just wanted to follow up and say that I have not seen any more of the SQL updateCachedValues errors since things were merged to Edge earlier.

Changed syntax for an even wider compatibility.
Follow-up of FreshRSS#8254
Regression from FreshRSS#6957
MariaDB images on Docker Hub go back to 10.6, so changed documentation to indicate support from that version, as I cannot easily test even older versions.
