IBM_DB does not support Node JS v4.0.0 #64

elkorep · 2015-09-10T19:10:42Z

IBM_DB does not install on Node JS v4.0.0 64-bit and 32-bit on linux machines.
It installs on windows 7 with the 64-bit version of Node JS v4.0.0 but fails to run the tests.

adr1anav · 2015-09-18T13:02:49Z

I was able to install ibm_db on Node js v4.0 64-bit but like the user above, also ran into issues when running the code. What are the plans to get ibm_db supported on Node js v4.0?

smartmouse · 2015-09-25T17:27:20Z

Yes, not a surprise, see this nodejs/node#2798

ibmdb · 2015-10-04T17:11:54Z

Try it: npm install git+https://[email protected]/ibmdb/node-ibm_db.git#v4_support
Also, it requires gcc version > 4.8 on linux. If installation fails, check gcc --version.

elkorep · 2015-10-06T18:42:59Z

The issue seems to persist, even with gcc version > 4.8
I was unable to install it on xLinux, zLinux, and Power BE

bimalkjha · 2015-10-07T20:15:37Z

I verified it on Mac using node.js V 4.1.1. It seems working fine now. All test cases are working fine.
npm install git+https://[email protected]/ibmdb/node-ibm_db.git#v4_support

But, I see a problem here. It does not seem to work with older node.js. I check with v0.12.4 on linux. Not sure how it behaves for you. Thanks.

neurotech · 2015-10-08T00:02:16Z

Thanks @bimalkjha that worked for me. 👍

bimalkjha · 2015-10-09T09:03:28Z

@elkorep Since, it is working on all zLinux except one, I suspect some system issue and not ibm_db issue. I would suggest to copy ibm_db installed from some other zLinux to the failing system and run below command to get the exact cause of the issue:

node-gyp configure build --IBM_DB_HOME=$IBM_DB_HOME --IS_DOWNLOADED=true

node-gyp should be in your system path and run this command from ibm_db folder. Thanks.

elkorep · 2015-10-09T15:02:18Z

Thanks @bimalkjha I will look into it

rperlas · 2015-10-26T19:09:56Z

@bimalkjha I am having problems installing ibm_db on zLinux SLES 11.

This is my current environment:

64-bit zLinux SLES 11
v4.2.1-IBMBuild-4.2.1.0-201510191435
gcc version 4.8.3 20140627 [gcc-4_8-branch revision 212064](SUSE Linux)

This is the steps I took to install:

npm install git+https://[email protected]/ibmdb/node-ibm_db.git#v4_support

This is the full error message I get:

@bimalkjha Hi, I have a different issue testing ibm_db on a different machine. I am not sure, but this could be an issue with missing libraries in the environment I am using, can you confirm?

The environment:

xLinux Ubuntu 12 64-bit
gcc version 4.8.1 (Ubuntu 4.8.1-2ubuntu1~12.04)
v4.2.1-IBMBuild-4.2.1.0-201510191435

The steps I took to test:

npm install git+https://[email protected]/ibmdb/node-ibm_db.git#v4_support
npm install async
npm install moment
npm test

The error I get:

Error: libxml2.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
at Error (native)

Thank you!

bimalkjha · 2015-10-27T08:42:32Z

@rperlas For you second issue, you need to install OS library libxml2.so.2. I don't see any other issue.

Your first reported issue is compiler issue. See the start of the error and it is about v8 header file.

/home/nodebot1/.node-gyp/4.2.1/include/node/v8.h:336: error: expected unqualified-id before ‘using’

The current installed compiler is not able to compile the node.js header file. Try with latest compiler. This issue is not related with ibm_db code.

Thanks.

rperlas · 2015-10-27T13:43:13Z

Thanks @bimalkjha. I will look into it.

smartmouse · 2015-11-19T00:53:22Z

@rperlas ,any updates on your issues? I think everything is working for Node 4.0 except windows?

csaroff · 2015-11-19T21:28:53Z

npm install git+https://[email protected]/ibmdb/node-ibm_db.git#v4_support
works for me in node 5.1.0, but not 0.12.7.

Is there anyway to make this update reverse compatible?

rperlas · 2015-11-19T21:46:05Z

@smartmouse Yes, everything works fine except windows.

bimalkjha · 2015-11-23T08:04:02Z

@csaroff We are looking into code to make single branch available for all versions of node. Yes, currently for node v0.10.x or v0.12.x, you need to run npm install ibm_db while for nodejs v4.x onwards, use npm install git+https://[email protected]/ibmdb/node-ibm_db.git#v4_support command. We have documented it. Thanks for confirming that it is working fine with node.js 5.x too.

Lonniebiz · 2015-11-25T23:34:09Z

In Ubuntu 15.10, I was able to successfully run node 4.2.2 with the ibmdb version here:
git+https://[email protected]/ibmdb/node-ibm_db.git#v4_support

However, in Windows 2008 R2, it has issue with the git+ portion of this version-specification (when specified in the package.json file). Is this version also for Windows? If so, how should it show in the package.json file. Windows don't like "git".

How can I run node 4.2.2 with the ibmdb module in Windows 2008 R2?

Lonniebiz · 2015-11-26T00:04:34Z

Ah, "Note: Currently, node-ibm_db is not supported on Windows using NodeJS V4.x." --Source: https://github.com/ibmdb/node-ibm_db

smartmouse · 2015-12-01T17:04:25Z

If you are using IBM SDK node.js 4.x,
Here are the supported platforms:
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/web/nodesdk/version4.html

On older distribution like RH 6.x , you can upgrade the gcc level to 4.8.x but this is not an officially supported platforms

This should be useful info

bimalkjha · 2016-01-12T12:04:47Z

"npm install ibm_db" works with all versions of node.js on Windows platform only. Thanks.

bimalkjha · 2016-01-21T15:16:56Z

ibm_db supports Node.js V4.x. On windows use "npm install ibm_db" with v4 node.js.
For non-windows platform, use below command for node.js v4.x:
npm install git+https://[email protected]/ibmdb/node-ibm_db.git#v4_support

qpresley · 2016-01-21T16:06:03Z

When will npm install ibm_db support V4 on all platforms?

bimalkjha · 2016-01-22T07:42:02Z

We are working on it.

bimalkjha · 2016-01-28T17:58:03Z

We have released a new version of ibm_db 0.0.18.
Now npm install ibm_db works with all versions of node.js on all platforms. Thanks.

@sharethemagics ,
Please share following details with us:

Which node.js version you are using?
How you installing node-ibm_db (from git or npm)?
easy steps for reproducing above exception?

thanks

sharethemagics · 2016-05-31T13:43:30Z

@rhtpandeyIN Please find the answers below

Which node.js version you are using? - v5.7.0
How you installing node-ibm_db (from git or npm)? - Npm
easy steps for reproducing above exception? - It just throws error whenever I include "ibm_db"

var http = require("http");
var ibmdb = require("ibm_db");

console.log("Test program to access DB2 sample database");

http.createServer(function (request, response) {

response.writeHead(200, {'Content-Type': 'text/plain'});

response.end('Hello World\n');
}).listen(8081);

console.log('Server running at http://127.0.0.1:8081/');

thanks

rhtpandeyIN · 2016-05-31T14:55:54Z

Hi @sharethemagics,
The error you are getting is obvious, because you are installing from "npm", and it do not have support for node.js V5.x, and you are using V5.x.
so you have two options:

Use node.js V4.x if Installing node-ibm_db from npm.
or
Install node-ibm_db from github repo(supports node.js V5.x), if you want to use node.js V5.x

you can use following command for Installing from github directly :
npm install git+https://[email protected]/ibmdb/node-ibm_db.git

sharethemagics · 2016-05-31T15:56:54Z

@rhtpandeyIN Thanks a lot. It worked fine.

rhtpandeyIN · 2016-05-31T16:24:22Z

neurotech · 2016-06-01T22:52:55Z

Will node-ibm_db support >= v5 soon?

bimalkjha · 2016-06-02T03:37:40Z

Yes, within 2 weeks. Currently it is supported using npm install
git+https://[email protected]/ibmdb/node-ibm_db.git command.
