Bug Report_Getting " PrintDeps.exe Bad image" pop-ups while running tests from terminal using ibm_db package with Playwright with JavaScript about node-ibm_db HOT 8 CLOSED

hello from the Playwright team! In the past a few users ran into this issue with using the library, which broke Playwright. We are unsure if its an issue on our or on your side. When I was debugging it, I saw that after we load the native ibm binding, it stops working, maybe you have a clue on whats going on there. See microsoft/playwright#28846 (comment).

Thanks!

@mxschmitt @54995610 what was the previous version of ibm_db which was working?
In the shared code, I see you are promisifying ibmdb.open() as const open = util.promisify(ibmdb.open). It may be the cause of issue as open api returns promise in latest version if you do not pass a callback function. In fact, all ibmdb apis returns promise and you can use it for async-await programming. Please check and update. thanks.

I think it was never working. It only reproduces on Windows and it also reproduced without util.promisify.

That's correct we are also seeing this issue even without using util,promisify.

@54995610 Could you please share simplified steps to reproduce this issue on my Windows system? I have not used Playwright yet. Thanks.

from node-ibm_db.

OS: Windows

npm init playwright my-project
cd my-project
// put the require inside tests/example.spec.ts
npx playwright test

Actual: throws with a weird error (via a Windows MessageBox) when we launch PrintDeps.exe via child_process.spawn
Expected: Does not

Note: We mitigated it on the Playwright side for now, @54995610 has not confirmed yet, that it works for him, but for me did not reproduce anymore.

@mxschmitt Thanks for sharing the repro steps. I am able to reproduce the issue and getting test result as below:

C:\nodework\defects\my-proj>npx playwright test

Running 6 tests using 4 workers
  6 passed (37.6s)

To open last HTML report run:

  npx playwright show-report


C:\nodework\defects\my-proj>

The reason for these pop-ups only for require('ibm_db') is unknown for me. We need detailed info from playwright team about this behavior, then we can look further. Thanks.

Closing the issue now as issue seems with playwright. Once, you have input from playwrite team with detail, you can post here and we can reopen the issue. Thanks.
