failed to wait for sqlite3 dump command: exit status 1

Hi, I have been following the instructions (README.md), and I have got as far as the models being created. However, when I run

go test ./models

I receive the following error:

Unable to execute setup: failed to wait for sqlite3 dump command: exit status 1

I have created a tables_schema.sql with the CREATE TABLE' sql. I have tried locating it in ./models` and in the root of my app - no joy. Can anyone give me some pointers as to what the issue is?

Okay, so tables_schema.sql has nothing to do with the issue.

I have checked the sqlite3_main_test.go the following:

dumpCmd := exec.Command("sqlite3", "-cmd", ".dump", s.dbName)

I have tested on the command line (use Windows): sqlite3 -cmd .dump ./db/data.db and it works just fine?

I am new to Go and sqlboiler. Any help appreciated :-)

Further update: I moved the database to the root of my app and things progressed further. Now I have the following similar issue:

Unable to execute setup: failed to wait for sqlite3 create command: exit status 1

Again, tried the tables_create.sql in the root and '/models` folder... - no joy.

The auto-generated tests have been a little bit neglected for a while now. It is a bit difficult to generate given how varied the database structures could be and right now. We may consider removing it altogether in the near future.

I am not quite sure what is causing your specific issue, but I am hesitant to debug this myself.

While not a solution, perhaps you can just generate your models with the --no-tests flag, and generally test the rest of your code that the models are working as expected.

Thank you for the reply. I tried to debug, but it was too much... And I don't have the bandwidth now. I will try as you suggest. Many thanks again...😊
