Further info, I setup a new Ubuntu 20.04 Virtual machine, and installed npm and node via the APT package manager (as opposed to following the info on https://nvm.sh), and after restarting my vscode session, I was able to get sqlite to work properly.

My guess is the script is looking in a certain place for the sqlite node modules but cant find them there and then it fails. This would explain why it can successfully install them correctly (npm handles the installation, not this package). I have not figured out where the sqlite library is looking for the sqlite node module however.

I had the same problem and fixing the path didn't do the job for me. I got it working (on the Mac) using the following steps. If you are not on a Mac it may still be the right steps, you just have to figure out the paths yourself.

First step is to go to the directory where vscode-sqltools stores its dependencies:

cd
cd 'Library/Application Support/vscode-sqltools'

Next make certain that the dependency is in the file package.json. My file looks like this:

{
  "dependencies": {
    "sqlite3": "^4.2.0"
  }
}

If that is the case (you may have more dependencies, just make certain that the sqlite dependency is present) take the following steps:

rm package-lock.json
rm -rf node_modules
npm i

You should be all set now.

Note that I first tried it without removing package-lock.json. That showed the underlying problem. I got an error from a tool called gyp. This is the most informative line:

gyp: Undefined variable module_name in binding.gyp while trying to load binding.gyp

So by removing package-lock.json and fully rebuildingnode_modules I fixed the problem.

Because the maintainer seems busy currently, I published the quick fix version of redshift driver for this issue. If anyone want the quick fix for this issue (like me), please use this extention.

Dear @mtxr, As soon as this issue is solved for current PostgreSQL driver, I will unpublish this driver.

I am experiencing the same issue. Below is my log of trying to connect to the sqlite database, running the install prompt, and then trying to connect again. Basically, it is stuck in a loop where it cant seem to find the installed dependency, but there isn't much in the way of errors coming back, except for a failed connection.

@KerimG Thanks a lot, I really solve this issue

@rjshanahan can you try to manually run this query:

https://github.com/mtxr/vscode-sqltools/blob/134e38769adf6f7ffe79b5dd84cdf12a9bfcc058/packages/driver.pg/src/ls/queries.ts#L207

Of course, changing to valid values, let me know if you get any errors

I checked information_schema.schemata and it only returns schemas that my user owns. It seems AWS changed the behavior at some point of time.

I also tired to replace that query and I look trough some options. I'm happy if this summary helps:

1. Use pg_* tables which seems more supported by AWS
2. Use redshift-specific system views as mentioned [here].(https://docs.aws.amazon.com/redshift/latest/dg/c_join_PG_examples.html).
3. Use information_schema.tables instead and make result rows distinct.

I think option1 is the most simple way, but unfortunately I could not find way to relate database names and schema names only using pg_* tables so far.

option2 may be the more reliable than option3, because there is an official documentation in AWS webpage. The downside is that it will break compatibility with postgres, requires an additional logic (I'm not sure because I'm new to SQLtools).

option3 is easy fix, I found it works in my redshift cluster and compatible with postgres test env. So I can send the pull request. It introduces distinct operation, but will not significantly effect performance I think.

Now, need some discussion around these options?

ps. just my personal view, I feel redshift starts to deviate a bit from postgres. e.g. redshift now has external tables which postgres does not have, and these external tables are not shown in SQL tools(I will create issue for that). So they becaming different things, we might need separete logics for redshift and postgres in the future?

Same issue here

Trying to connect to a Microsoft SQL Server that uses integrated AD security. My connection string looks like this: "server=MYSERVERHERE;database=MYDATABASEHERE;Integrated Security=true;User ID=MYDOMAIN\MYUSERNAME;Password=MYPASSWORD"

Clicking "Test Connection" works, and gives the message that the connection was successful.

However, clicking "Save Connection" presents the error message "Request connection/GetConnectionsRequest failed with message: Cannot read property 'localeCompare' of undefined"

I am a bit of a database and VS Code novice. Anyone have any ideas on how to fix? Is this a non-issue?

Describe the bug

I am unable to install the sqlite3 npm package, because there is a loop of the extension asking to install it.

I am able to install the sqlite3 npm package outside of vscode in an arbitrary directory using npm install sqlite3@4.2.0.
