I have a function to delete employees like so

removeEmployee(empRefId: string): Observable<void>{
    const docRef = doc(this.firestore, 'empDetails/'+empRefId+'123'); //123 to corrupt Id
    const promise = deleteDoc(docRef);
    return from(promise);
  }

I call this from my component like so :

this.firebaseEmpService.removeEmployee(empRefId).subscribe({
        next: (result) => {          
          console.log("succesfully deleted emp in db");          
          this.toastrService.success("Deleted emp successfully ");
        },
        error: (error) => {
          console.error("Something went wrong:", error);          
          this.toastrService.error("Something went wrong");
        },
        complete: () => {
          console.log("On complete delete");          
          // Handle completion cases
        }
      });

When supplying an incorrect ID, I would have thought I will get an error. However, the error property of subscribe is never called.
I have surrounded the deletion call with try/catch and catch doesn’t catch the promise’s rejection – if it rejects at all.

    try{
      const promise = deleteDoc(docRef);
      console.log("Returning from try");      
      return from(promise);
    } catch(error)
    {
      console.log("Error in try catch");
      console.log(error);
    }
    return of();

The documentation doesn’t say what happens when an incorrect Id is supplied – am only guessing the promise rejects. So, what am I doing wrong? Does deleteDoc not return an error? With what I have currently, the promise and observable both complete successfully, how do I tell the UI that an incorrect ID was passed?

I have tried to use the promise as is, but the catch block never executes:

this.firebaseEmpService.removeEmployeePromise(empRefId)
       .then((o) => {
         this.toastrService.success("Deleted emp successfully ");       
         })
         .catch((o) => {
           console.log("REJECTED", o);                    
           this.toastrService.error("Something went wrong");
         });
