When SYSTOOLS.GENERATE_SPREADSHEET returns an empty table it fails with an SQL State VSP05 and Vendor Code -438.
Modify the function to don't fail when it happens.
Example:
VALUES SYSTOOLS.GENERATE_SPREADSHEET(
PATH_NAME =>'/home/csvtest',
SPREADSHEET_QUERY =>'SELECT * FROM QSYS2.ASP_INFO WHERE ASP_NUMBER > 1',
COLUMN_HEADINGS =>'COLUMN')
What I get:
SQL0438 Message GENERATE_SPREADSHEET: FAILED WITH SQLCODE=-438 SQLSTATE=VSP05 MESSAGE=GENERATE_SPREADSHEET: ACS - cldownload FAILED - CONSULT JOBLOG FOR DETAILS returned from SIGNAL, RESIGNAL, or RAISE_ERROR.
Cause . . . . . : An application has executed a SIGNAL or RESIGNAL statement, the RAISE_ERROR function has been invoked, or an error was signalled within a MERGE statement. If the application is an SQL procedure, function, trigger, or a compound (dynamic) statement, the SQLSTATE was not handled in the SQL routine. The message returned is GENERATE_SPREADSHEET: FAILED WITH SQLCODE=-438 SQLSTATE=VSP05 MESSAGE=GENERATE_SPREADSHEET: ACS - cldownload FAILED - CONSULT JOBLOG FOR DETAILS.
Recovery . . . : See the documentation for the application that issued the SIGNAL or RESIGNAL statement or invoked the RAISE_ERROR function.
What I suggest:
No error and maybe the result of the function is 0 (-1 for error, 1 for successfull and 0 for empty)
