How to pass an object from axios catch block to parent component with Vue.js - laravel

Question

I am using Laravel 7 and Vue.js 2.
I want to pass an object of validation errors from the catch block of an axios call to a parent component but for some reasons it doesn't work.
This is the code of the axios call:
runReport: function() {
let self = this;
const url = "api/get_report?room="+this.formReport['room']+"&participant="+this.formReport['participant']+"&start="+this.formReport['start']+"&end="+this.formReport['end'];
axios.get(url)
.then((response) => {
console.log(response.data.data);
this.meetingsReport = response.data.data;
this.$emit('passMeetings', this.meetingsReport);
this.$emit('success');
this.errors = {};
})
.catch(function(error) {
console.log(error.response.data);
self.errors = error.response.data;
alert(self.errors);
self.$emit('failure');
self.$emit('passErrors', self.errors); //problem
console.log('call ended');
});
}
This is the code in the parent component:
<template>
<div>
<report-meeting #passMeetings="onPassMeetings" #failure="displayTable=false" #success="displayTable=true"></report-meeting>
<hr>
<validated-errors :errorsMeeting="errorsMeeting" #passErrors="onPassErrors" v-if="displayTable===false"></validated-errors>
<table-report :meetingsSelected="meetingsSelected" v-if="displayTable===true"></table-report>
</div>
</template>
<script>
import TableReport from "./TableReport.vue"
import ReportMeeting from "./ReportMeeting.vue"
import ValidatedErrors from "./ValidatedErrors.vue"
export default {
components: {
'table-report': TableReport,
'report-meeting': ReportMeeting,
'validated-errors': ValidatedErrors
},
mounted() {
console.log('Component mounted.');
},
data: function() {
return {
displayTable: false,
meetingsSelected: {},
errorsMeeting: {}
}
},
methods: {
onPassMeetings(value) {
console.log(value);
this.meetingsSelected = value;
},
onPassErrors(value) {
console.log('errors passed'); //never used
this.errorsMeeting = value;
}
}
}
</script>
In the console I visualize no errors (except an 422 Unprocessable Entity). The strange thing is that the first emit works (failure), but the second one doesn't work (passErrors).
In the parent function onPassErrors I put a console.log that is never used so I suppose that the function is never called.
Can help?

This is likely caused by an event name mismatch, which can occur when using in-DOM templates because HTML attributes are automatically lower-cased (#passErrors becomes #passerrors in the DOM).
When using the development build of Vue, you'd see a warning in the browser's console:
[Vue tip]: Event "passerrors" is emitted in component but the handler is registered for "passErrors". Note that HTML attributes are case-insensitive and you cannot use v-on to listen to camelCase events when using in-DOM templates. You should probably use "pass-errors" instead of "passErrors".
This is not a problem in single file components (demo 1) or string templates (demo 2), but if you must stick with in-DOM templates, custom event names are recommended to be kebab-case:
<!-- Parent.vue -->
<MyComponent #pass-errors="onPassEvent" />
// MyComponent.vue
runReport() {
this.$emit('pass-errors', /*...*/)
}
