fix(internals): fall back to raw stderr when schema engine error has no message#29845santichausis wants to merge 3 commits into
Conversation
…no message parseJsonFromStderr drops the schema engine's first stderr line as a discardable preamble. When the engine emits only that one line for a given failure, the only line with real diagnostic information gets dropped, `logs` ends up empty, and the error thrown was a bare "Schema engine error:" with nothing after it. Extract the message-joining into formatSchemaEngineError and fall back to the raw stderr whenever no log line yields a usable message, so the thrown error always carries some diagnostic content instead of silently swallowing the only information available. Closes prisma#29838

raw-stderr fallback, without changing the formatter’s implementation.
- Around line 72-75: Update parseJsonFromStderr to remove blank lines after
slicing stderr before attempting JSON.parse, so trailing-newline input such as
`real error\n` falls through to formatSchemaEngineError without throwing. Add a
regression test covering this input and verifying the raw stderr fallback is
returned.

Place the new test suite alongside the source file.
This *.test.ts suite is under packages/internals/src/__tests__, not alongside packages/internals/src/schemaEngineCommands.ts. Move the added tests to an adjacent test file, using the required kebab-case name if a new file is created.
As per coding guidelines, *.test.ts files should be placed alongside source files.

Friendly bump on this one whenever someone has a moment — happy to make any changes if needed 🙂 |
…fallback parseJsonFromStderr's `.slice(1)` on a single-line stderr with a trailing newline (e.g. "real error\n") left a lone blank-string element, which JSON.parse rejected before formatSchemaEngineError's fallback ever ran — the exact scenario the previous commit meant to handle. Filter out blank lines after the slice, export parseJsonFromStderr for direct testing, and document formatSchemaEngineError with a proper doc comment. Found by CodeRabbit's review on prisma#29845.

filter(Boolean) let a whitespace-only fields.message (e.g. ' ') through as a "real" message, which formatSchemaEngineError would then return instead of falling back to the raw stderr — leaving an equally unhelpful error. Filter on the trimmed value instead. Found by CodeRabbit's review on prisma#29845.

Description
Reported as
prisma migrate deployfailing on MariaDB with a bareError: Schema engine error:and nothing after it — no diagnostic content at all.Traced it to
parseJsonFromStderrinpackages/internals/src/schemaEngineCommands.ts, which unconditionally drops the first line of the schema engine's stderr (.slice(1)) on the assumption that it's a discardable preamble. When the engine emits only a single stderr line for a given failure, that line — the only one with real information — gets dropped entirely,logsends up an empty array, and the fallback error message construction (logs.map((log) => log.fields.message).join('\n')) produces an empty string. That matches the reported symptom exactly.This doesn't require reproducing the underlying MariaDB failure itself (which may be a separate, engine-side issue) — regardless of why a given failure only produces one stderr line, the error message should never silently end up empty.
Fix
Extracted the message-joining logic into
formatSchemaEngineError(logs, stderr), used in all 3 places that previously built this message (canConnectToDatabase,createDatabase,dropDatabase). It now falls back to the raw stderr whenever no log line yields a usable (non-empty) message, so the thrown error always carries some diagnostic content instead of silently swallowing the only information available.Closes #29838
