Node ibm_db Installation Error with Python 3.12 #981

Closed phaviland closed 4 months ago

I am receiving then following error when attempting to install ibm_db on a machine with python 3.12.1. It appears 'distutils' is removed in Python 3.12 which node-gyp has a fix for.

npm ERR! Error: Command failed: node-gyp configure build  --IS_DOWNLOADED=true --IBM_DB_HOME="$IBM_DB_HOME"
npm ERR! gyp info it worked if it ends with ok

@phaviland It is the issue with package node-gyp : https://github.com/nodejs/node-gyp/issues/2869 Seems node-gyp@10.0.1 has fixed the issue. Your node-gyp version is 9.3.1. Run npm install node-gyp@latest and then npm install ibm_db. It should fix the issue. Thanks.
