Method call not returning from event but will from console

help
1

Hi, I have a strange issue that I can’t figure out. I have a method and a method call in my template event handle. For some reason the method call only works like 1 time out of 5 and it doesn’t update DOM. When the call works, console.log(Session.get('getReportData')+ " from method call"); returns Objects to console but not to the DOM.

When I set the variable manually in console and call:

Meteor.call('getReportData',startDate, finishDate, function(err, data) {
    			console.log("is the call working at all??");
    			if (err)
    				console.log(err);
    			Session.set('getReportData', data);
    			console.log(Session.get('getReportData')+ " from method call");
    		});

I get everything back and DOM is updated also.

Here is the code:

Method:

'getReportData': function(startDate, finishDate) {
		/*
		if (mingi check, mis annaks errorit?) {
			throw new Meteor.Error("no-data-found", "No data can be found for selected period");
		} */
		var reportData = ScrapReport.find({dateEntered: { $gte: startDate}, dateEntered: { $lte: finishDate}}).fetch();
		return reportData;
	}

Client:

Template.report.events({
	'click .btn': function(startDate, finishDate) {
		var startDate = $('#startDate').val();
		console.log(startDate + ' StartfromTheButton')
		var finishDate = $('#finishDate').val();
		console.log(finishDate + ' FinishfromTheButton')

		Meteor.call('getReportData',startDate, finishDate, function(err, data) {
			console.log("is the call working at all??");
			if (err)
				console.log(err);
			Session.set('getReportData', data);
			console.log(Session.get('getReportData')+ " from method call");
		});
	}
})

Template.reportData.helpers({
	'reportData': function () {
		return Session.get('getReportData');
	}
});

What can cause this issues?

  1. Call doesn’t work every time.
  2. When it works, DOM is not updated?

stupid error, I was missing event in the function call and event.preventDefault();
