We are failing 42 sqllogictest with the same error:
Out of bounds value for decimal type.This is caused by Case performing a
convertto a decimal type that had a badexclusiveUpperBound.MySQL has specific rules about the precision , scale, and conversion of decimals, and it is difficult to match their behavior exactly.
Fortunately, the result is correct before the conversion, so the fix here is to just use the result, and not convert.
This is somewhat of a bandaid fix; decimal type is an area that needs more improvement in general.
