Re: [IBMiOSS] nodejs stored procedure call - Program type out of range

I’m not sure where you got that syntax, but that’s not how you call
procedures with node-odbc.

Here’s the docs:
https://github.com/IBM/node-odbc?tab=readme-ov-file#callprocedurecatalog-schema-name-parameters-callback

parameters?: An array of parameters to pass to the procedure. For input
and input/output parameters, the JavaScript value passed in is expected to
be of a type translatable to the SQL type the procedure expects. For output
parameters, any JavaScript value can be passed in, and will be overwritten
by the function. The number of parameters passed in must match the number
of parameters expected by the procedure.

All parameters are just values, there is no need to describe what types
they are.

Try this instead:

const result = await connection.callProcedure(null,
defaultSchema,
procedureName,
[
runSchema,
undefined // output parameter
]
);

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [IBMiOSS] nodejs stored procedure call - Program type
out of range
I’m new to Node and stored procedures, so I’m sure I’ve done something
wrong,
but I keep getting an error ‘Program type out of range’. As far as I can
tell
everything should line up.



This is what I am getting:

Error calling RPGLE procedure: [Error: [odbc] Error binding parameters to
the
statement] {

odbcErrors: [

{

state: 'HY003',

code: 0,

message: '[unixODBC][Driver Manager]Program type out of range'

}

]

}





Here is the RPGLE procedure interface definition. It is in service program
PLOC
:

Dcl-pi PlocReview;

RunLib char(10) const;

Match varchar(5000);

End-pi;





Here is the stored procedure definition:

CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE MODVANTIS.PLOC_REVIEW (

IN RUNLIB CHAR(10) ,

OUT MATCH VARCHAR(5000) )

LANGUAGE RPGLE

SPECIFIC MODVANTIS.PLOC_REVIEW

NOT DETERMINISTIC

NO SQL

EXTERNAL NAME 'MODVANTIS/PLOC(PLOCREVIEW)'

PARAMETER STYLE GENERAL ;



I have tried 2 different methods to call the procedure with the same
results.



try {

// Connect to the database via ODBC

const connection = await odbc.connect(connectionConfig);



const sql = `{CALL ${defaultSchema}.${procedureName}(?, ?)}`;



let outputparm = '';



const statement = await connection.createStatement();

await statement.prepare(sql);



const result = await statement.bind([

{ParamType: 'INPUT', DataType: 'CHAR', LENGTH: 10, Data:
runSchema.padEnd(10, ' ') },

{ParamType: 'OUPUT', DataType: 'VARCHAR', LENGTH: 5000, Data:
outputparm }

]);



const result = await statement.execute();



Also tried:

const result = await connection.callProcedure(null, defaultSchema,
procedureName, [

{ Value: runSchema, IO: 'IN' }, // Input parameter: Run library

{ Value: '', Length: 5000, IO: 'OUT' }, // Output parameter: name
(varchar)

]);
