Thread: How to get error message details from libpq based psqlODBC driver (regression)
Hi!
I'm looking for a way to fix psqlODBC driver regression.
Starting at psqlODBC 09.05.0100 when psqlODBC driver uses libpq for all
operations (earlier versions used libpg only for authentication) ODBC client
does not show error message details.
For example, users got only generic error message like
Connectivity error: ERROR: insert or update on table "mytable" violates
foreign key constraint "mytable_myfield_fkey
Error message details like
Key (myfield)=(mykeyvalue) is not present in table "mymastertable".;
are no more returned.
How to detailed error message or at least only bad key value "mykeyvalue"
which is returned in error message details ?
Some ideas:
1. First versions of libpq based ODBC drivers returned same error message
"no resource found" for all errors. Hiroshi has fixed it it later versions.
Maybe psqlODBC code can fixed to restore pre-libpq behaviour.
2. Maybe analyzing odbc logs from pre and after 09.05.0100 drivers may
provide solution. I can provide ODBC log files.
3. psqlODBC allows to pass parameters to libpq from connection string. Maybe
some libpq parameter can fix this.
4. Maybe some Postgres query, postgres extension or direct odbc or libpq
call can used to return last error message details like Windows API
GetLastError() or Unix global errno.
5. Maybe it is possible to to create method which returns error message
detals from postgres log file.
Postgres 12.2 and latest psqlODBC driver 12.01.0000 are used.
psqlODBC is called from Visual FoxPro
Andrus.

Does that affect what the ODBC driver sends back to the user? -- Angular momentum makes the world go 'round.

Hi! >What does the log_error_verbosity setting in postgresql.conf show? It is not set. postgresql.conf contains it default value from installation: #log_error_verbosity = default # terse, default, or verbose messages I changed it to log_error_verbosity = verbose but problem persists. postgres log file contains 2020-02-23 09:02:27.646 GMT [11252] ERROR: 23503: insert or update on table "rid" violates foreign key constraint "rid_yhik_fkey" 2020-02-23 09:02:27.646 GMT [11252] DETAIL: Key (yhik)=(xx ) is not present in table "mootyhik". 2020-02-23 09:02:27.646 GMT [11252] LOCATION: ri_ReportViolation, d:\pginstaller_12.auto\postgres.windows-x64\src\backend\utils\adt\ri_triggers.c:2474 2020-02-23 09:02:27.646 GMT [11252] STATEMENT: insert into rid (dokumnr, yhik) values (2065, 'xx') but application shows only ERROR: insert or update on table "rid" violates foreign key constraint "rid_yhik_fkey" Andrus.

There maybe someone else on this list that could help, though I think your best bet would be to ask the question again on the pgsql-odbc list. > > Andrus. -- Adrian Klaver adrian.klaver@aklaver.com

I posted it in pgsql-odbc list. In pgsql odbc source code file connection.c: line 866 contains: errprimary = PQresultErrorField(pgres, PG_DIAG_MESSAGE_PRIMARY); which probably gets only primary error message. To get error message detail, PG_DIAG_MESSAGE_DETAIL should used according to https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/libpq-exec.html. Unfortunately PG_DIAG_MESSAGE_DETAIL is not used in pgsql-odbc source code. Andrus.
