Description

@phpdave

Describe your system

  • odbc Package Version: 2.4.9
  • ODBC Driver: 1.1.0.28-0
  • unixODBC 2.3.9
  • Database Name: DB2 for i
  • Database Version: V7R5M0
  • Database OS: IBM i
  • Node.js Version: 18.18.2
  • Node.js OS: IBM i

Describe the bug
The error doesn't contain the odbcErrors data. console.log of the error in a catch block will give you

[Error: [odbc] Error executing the statement] { odbcErrors: [] }

Expected behavior
odbcErrors to have the information about what caused the error

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Run the node.js code below:

Code

try {
const connection = await odbc.connect(my_connection_string);
const statement = await connection.createStatement();
let bindVal = [
        field1 || '',
        field2 || '']
await statement.prepare(`UPDATE MYLIB.MYTABLE
      SET 
      FIELD1 = ?
      WHERE FIELD2 = ?`);
await statement.bind(bindVal);
const result = await statement.execute();
} catch (error) {
        console.log(error);
        const odbc_error = error?.odbcErrors || 'No ODBC error object';
        console.log(odbc_error)
        const odbc_error_message = error?.odbcErrors?.[0]?.message || 'No ODBC error message';
        console.log(odbc_error_message)
}

Additional context
Checked the following table to find out what the error was but couldn't find anything there either:
qsys2.history_log_info
qsys2.joblog_info
