Using native Query with distinct is returning wrong total count

See original GitHub issue

Hello, It seems that Hibernate is removing the “distinct” key word from the native Query when using the count to get the total elements.

Any Workaround for this?

Springboot 2.3.7

A fragment for the logs:

The log for the get entities

select distinct e.* from schema.entity e 
(more statements...)
...

The log for the count query generated by hibernate (as you can see, for some reason, it is removing the “distinct” keyword)

select count(e) from  schema.entity e 
(more statements...)
...

This seems like bug for me. I saw this issue from a long ago time but without any solution (a part from generating my own count query) https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-data-jpa/issues/750
