Hi,

To integrate InterSystems IRIS for Health with Open Source Drools(as rules engine), any advice? Thank you!

A few months ago, I faced a significant challenge: streamlining the handling of business logic in our application. My goal was to extract the business logic from the code and hand it over to analysts. Dealing with a multitude of rules could easily result in a code littered with countless "if" statements, especially if the coder lacked an understanding of cyclomatic complexity. Such code becomes a source of pain for those working with it—difficult to write, test, and develop.

We recently went through an Audit of our Security Policies and Procedures when it comes to IRIS. As a result of that Audit, we need to make adjustments to the way that Security is setup within IRIS. I have already done my changes on our TEST and DEVELOPMENT environments, but now I am trying to plan out how do we make these changes in Production.

These changes include moving away from the PWS, setting up Apache/Web Gateway, moving to LDAP instead of using Delegated Authentication, updating Web Applications, updating Resources, updating Services, etc...

To minimize the impact on our system, does

Good morning,

First of all thanks for reading this question.

We have been asked by a client to check if our Soap Service has charset / encoding "UTF-8".

We have been investigating the class "EnsLib.SOAP.InboundAdapter".

We only observe one reference to the charset as "Set tCT=$S(tCST:"binary/CST; charset=UTF-8"

Inside the method: WriteResp

Hello, I am writing to you because I am receiving a strange error on our Integration server after restoring a Production copy.

On other occasions we had restored the Production copy on this server without problems (in fact it was done weekly)

After restoring the copy when entering the Studio this error appears:

All FHIR resources have a Meta element containing metadata about the resource. Some attributes are updated by the server, others are populated by the app constructing the resource.

Here are the 3 common attributes of FHIR’s Meta element: 

1. versionId
This is an ID that identifies a saved version of the resource on the FHIR server. Many servers use a GUID here, others use an integer. But it’s a string value, so don’t write code against this assuming a sequential integer, regardless of what the server does.

2. lastUpdated
The date and time that the resource was last updated, populated by the

Ran into an issue this morning, that I am having a hard time trying to track down what might have caused the issue. We have a Business Rule that sends HL7 ADT to a Business Process that inserts the data into a MS SQL Server using a Custom Business Operation (SQL Outbound Adapter).

Early yesterday morning the Custom Business Operation reset its connection through the Java Gateway Server to the MS SQL Database, when it reconnected to the Java Gateway/MS SQL Database it stopped processing.

I am looking to run IRIS for UNIX on the Linux Ubuntu 22.04 platform and need to determine which filesystem configurations are considered supported. The three options under consideration are Ext4, LVM with Ext4, and OpenZFS. Currently, the system is running on a raw Ext4 filesystem, but there is a desire to switch to either LVM with Ext4 or OpenZFS to make it easier to handle disk usage.

This leads to two questions:

Are either of these two configurations considered to be tested and supported by InterSystems?

Are there any issues or concerns with transitioning data and logs from a raw Ext4

Wondering what version the Information.Schema schema was introduced, so that I can decide how to query the metadata for user defined tables. 

Thank you!

For your convenience InterSystems is posting the typical install steps for the operating systems that are supported with InterSystems IRIS.

For Microsoft Windows, please consult the InterSystems product documentation.

The IRIS installer will detect if a web server is installed on the same machine, which gives you the option to automatically have the web server configured.

All Apache installations will require sudo (recommended) or root permission to install the web server. This requirement supports recommended best practices. 

For Red Hat (RHEL), InterSystems is installing SELinux files to

Configured the webapplication as described in the previous link, and now have a URL which I call in PostMan

I have been struggling with a docker run command that kept crashing, the error message was too generic to point me to the right direction.

Since the container is shut down after the failure, I was unable to login to it in order to figure out the problem.

I had to run the container in a way that I'll be able to log into it before it crashed, so I found the adding  -u false prevents the docker run command to run the iris session IRIS and the container stayed up and running. then I was able to log into it using:

docker exec -it <container id / name> /bin/bash

inside the container I was able to try

I am trying to do a INSERT OR UPDATE SQL query, but the query always inserts new rows to table. Is it how I defined the table or am I mising something in the query?

table defines as,

Property Tablespace As %Library.String(MAXLEN = 50) [ SqlColumnNumber = 2 ];

Last Friday November 17 suddenly ran into an error where ZPM would issue an error saying:

ERROR! Object open failed because 'Name' key value of 'xx' was not found

I googled but found no specific help. Step by step I was able to conclude that:

1. This is the error message for error 5770, also known as $$$KeyValueNotFoundOpen.

2. In objectscript, this error can be raised by calls to NameOpen, where 'Name' is the first quoted part in the error message.

3. The error status is raised when there is a call to ##class(yy.zz).NameOpen("xx", , .sc) where yy.zz inherits from %Persistent and has an index

Does anyone have any trick to get the raw text out whenever you run a DTL test in the DTL editor? 

If not is there any plans to add this to a later version?

Hello,

I am trying to use the %ToJSON method on my dynamic object, calling it with a "DO" and not passing in outstrm parameter.

We are trying to avoid MAXSTRING errors that we get with some of our abnormally large messages.  In order to do this, I am trying to update my code to not call the socket's "Write" method after converting the dynamic object to a JSON string using the %ToString method's output.  Per the documentation on the %ToJSON method:
    If outstrm is not specified and the method is called via DO, the JSON string is written to the current output device

The previous code (extending
