Hi all.
I'm writing a database utility that has to access IBM's "DashDB" and other
DB2-variants. I have their latest ODBC driver, and I have simple queries working. However
queries against their system catalog are not working - queries appear to be returning
*empty* recordsets. After some laborious debugging, I can see that when I call
$sth->fetchrow_array, DBI::errstr is set to:
st_fetch/SQLFetch (long truncated DBI attribute LongTruncOk not set and/or
LongReadLen too small) (SQL-HY000)
I've dealt with this before. So when constructing my $dbh, I do:
$self->{dbh}->{LongReadLen} = 65535 * 1024 # 64MB - yes I know it's big
$self->{dbh}->{LongTruncOK} = 1;
This usually fixes things - or at least has for SQL Server and Netezza. For DB2
connections however, it appears to have no effect.
I've turned on ODBC tracing immediately prior to calling $sth->prepare ...
$sth->execute ... $sth->fetchrow_array:
https://paste.pound-python.org/show/hS6ur7dwGRsQubr29HFT/
This one was from the query:
select * from SYSCAT.COLUMNS
Does anyone know why LongTruncOk / LongReadLen are not being honored here?
I'm using unixODBC-2.3.6, DBD::ODBC from git, and the latest available DB2 ODBC
driver.
Please help! Thanks :)

There are some very long columns in that result-set but I can't tell from the
unixodbc log alone what has happened.
Can you reduce your perl to the simplest test you can and rerun with
DBI_TRACE=15=trace.log perl mycode.pl
and show me the trace.log file.
