Create Table on iOS failure - SQLITE.ExecSQL Failed Prepare: 1 about nativescript-sqlite

[NathanaelA]

Thanks for the report; I will take a look into this; but to set your expectation it probably won't be for a while as I always prioritize my commercial customers over free support.

Also if you want to debug it and send me a pull request; I'm always glad for pull requests.

Have you figured this out yet @johnnyzen?

Could it be the backticks in your 'create table' string? Backticks in es6 are used for string interpolation, and I noticed some oddities with string interpolation in my own app. Maybe try building the string separately and passing it to execSQL as a parameter.

I am getting this error:

CONSOLE ERROR file:///app/services/commonServices.js:20:30: We failed to open database ReferenceError: Can't find variable: sqlite3_open_v2

But it's fine from Android.

i was having the same problem. It turns out i was missing closing ) in my sql statment. like following:
db.execSQL("CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS setting (id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT, key TEXT, value TEXT)")

I have tested all the existing and new functionality in the new 2.x release. I am not able to duplicate either of these issue reported in this report.

Please note, one of the issues above is because you didn't fully rebuild the app (ios). You MUST de-install the app from the device, then do a tns platform clean ios then do a tns run ios.

Sorry to ask a question in a closed thread, but I also came across this issue with my app: "SQLITE.ExecSQL Failed Prepare: 1" with one of my insert statements.

Platform: iOS
Using the "ad-hoc" method of distribution (ie I am not using the nativescript cli)
iOS version: 12.4.7
NativeScript version: 6.7.4
nativescript-sqlite version: 2.3.3

Like you said @NathanaelA - it works fine if I uninstall the app before installing it again on the device. However, if I update the existing install without removing the app first I get that error. I don't really want to ask the users to completely uninstall the app each time they want to update, plus I am not sure if the app will pass the app store review if that is required in order for the app to function correctly.

So my question is whether there is a possible resolution to this problem in the pipeline or if there is something I can do to mitigate this? Also, most importantly, what is the reason for the need to reinstall completely?

Thank you again, @NathanaelA, for a great plugin! I hope I made myself clear?

All the best :)
Richard
