I have a json object coming in on a service with a field that has "NaN" as its value.

"ReferralInOutOfNetworkCd": "NaN",

In my DTL, I do a straight copy. yet what goes outbound is NaN, without being wrapped in double quotes

"consulting_provider_network_ordering_rd":NaN,

Has anyone experience this?  If so, did you find a way to fix or work around it?

An issue has been corrected that prevented global sets and kills in custom logic from being journaled.

Hello Community!

We're pleased to invite you to the upcoming webinar in Hebrew:

Is it possible to run a test case by classname instead of loading it from a directory?

I need to skip any directory loading completely since the directory with the source code does not exist.

While reviewing our Orphan messages, we noticed that there are some Orphans that look like they are the start of an HL7 message.

MSH|^~\&

Since this does not link to any Message Header, and most of the information in EnsLib_HL7.Message is NULL, is there a way to track down what Object maybe creating these so we can nip it in the bud.

Only way that I know of is to go through each of our Schema's and make both the MSH and Encoding Characters optional.

Hi Communtiy,
I am a begineer who is working and trying to understand Intersystems. I am developing an Ensemble interface which receives a XML message and converts it into HL7 format without using enslib.HL7 classes. 
Requirement

Hello,

I have problem to get working my web application in IIS. On apache just works fine.

I had an app in wwwroot called test, there is index.html file where is tag

I created a new repo called ipm-module-budget from https://github.com/intersystems-community/intersystems-iris-dev-template template.

I cloned the repo to an EC2 instance in AWS. When I try to build image, I see this error:

#8 22.09 [IRISAPP|ipm-module-budget] Reload START (/home/irisowner/dev/)Segmentation fault (core dumped) #8 ERROR: process "/bin/sh -c pip3 install -r requirements.txt && iris start IRIS && \tiris session IRIS < iris.scri pt && iris stop IRIS quietly" did not complete successfully: exit code: 139

Already included in SystemPerformance

There are nfs disk commands (including nfsiostat) included with SystemPerformance, but disabled by default. Enable them by running:

$$Enablenfs^SystemPerformance()

Doing so will add the following nfs commands, for example, on Linux:

1. /usr/sbin/nfsstat -cn
2. /usr/sbin/nfsiostat [interval] [count]

Ensure the commands are installed and runnable from the OS :)

This can be subsequently disabled via $$Disablenfs^SystemPerformance()

Adding a generic command to SystemPerformance

Adding an arbitrary OS tool creates a "user" command under ^IRIS.

Hi Community,

A big perk of attending InterSystems READY 2026 (April 27–30) is the chance to talk to experts like @Sam Schafer!

Issue

In the versions specified above, an instance may fail to start or may hang during operation if the database cache is greater than or equal to 2,097,152 MB (2 TB).

I have an issue and can't seem to find the problem.

Issue

 In some namespaces i get a 403 Page not Found error for healthconnect/csp/healthshare/[NAMESPACE]/%25ZEN.Dialog.namespaceSelect.cls ; healthconnect/csp/healthshare/[NAMESPACE]/%25ZEN.Dialog.finderDialog.zen  && healthconnect/csp/healthshare/[NAMESPACE]/_CSP.UI.Portal.About.zen

Iris setup

It is currently configured in a mirror group and on the other mirror-member i don't encounter the issue. (I have checked if it was because of the member-type Primary and Backup). 

The user that I am using has the %All role.

We are trying to run the HS solution inside of a container, but we are getting the following errors un start up
03/17/26-10:19:05:108 (1386) 1 [Generic.Event] Cannot lock /usr/irissys/mgr/hslib/ err(13): will try accessing readonly
03/17/26-10:19:08:174 (1386) 1 [Generic.Event] Cannot lock /usr/irissys/mgr/enslib/ err(13): will try accessing readonly

I understand that those databases should be mounted as read only don't needing the lock, any idea how to fix it? or where should I look to configure it correctly?
Thanks!

Since our previous announcement, we have introduced several incremental improvements to the client‑side editing experience in VS Code. These updates focus on preserving developer‑authored formatting when synchronizing with the server.

What Changed

Client‑side *.cls files previously lost certain formatting details during compilation, including keyword casing (e.g., classmethod → ClassMethod), normalization of blank lines between class members, and removal of line breaks within parameter lists.

Hello all,

I have a EnsLib.HTTP.GenericMessage inbound from a webhook with a GC stream.

My router is defined as the following:

There are lessons we learned from developing and maintaining code for interoperability components within a healthcare institutional environment.

The plane is already flying

Be prepared to rebuild, improve, extend, and fix the plane mid-flight.
 

Maintenance windows for hospital systems are often very limited, with some required to be operational 24/7. While the critical health systems such as imaging modalities or registration kiosks — or at least their critical functions — must operate autonomously, efficiency and usability may be compromised when interoperability components malfunction.

Hey Developers,

Thank you for being part of the InterSystems Developer Ecosystem! 
We truly appreciate your participation across the Developer Community, Open Exchange, Global Masters, and the Ideas Portal.

Each year we run a short survey to understand how we can improve our platforms and better support developers like you. Your feedback helps us shape the future of the ecosystem.

Please take a few minutes to complete the survey:

Hi all.

I have a rather strange problem.

I've created a method in Python to create a vector for a vector search. So far, so good.

If I call this method from the terminal, it works correctly:

But if I make this same call from a code block in a Business Process, it gets stuck, doesn't respond, and throws the following error:

Does anyone know what's happening and how to fix it?

Thank you in advance

Hi community,

I've been working on a side project that I'd love to get some eyes on: a ground-up rebuild of the classic IRIS Production Monitor using a modern web stack. The existing ZEN/CSP-based portal does the job, but I wanted to explore what a contemporary, real-time version of it could look like.

What it is

A standalone Angular web application that connects to any Interoperability-enabled IRIS namespace and gives you a live view of your production — services, processes, operations, queues, event log, and message traffic — all in one screen.

As part of the new Interoperability UI wave (see what was new in 2025.1, and 2025.3 by @Aya Heshmat), v2026.1 which is available already as a Developer Preview, and this could be a reason for you to give it a ride - will be shipping the new UI for the Message viewing and searching, including Visual Trace (and other UI goodies).

He's a quick teaser:

I may have mentioned this before: I believe the Visual Traces, these sequence diagrams with full content of each step, are a fantastic feature of the IRIS Data platform! Detailed information about how the API works internally, as a visual trace, can be very useful for projects on the IRIS platform. Of course, this applies when we are not developing a high-load solution, in which case we simply don't have time for saving/reading messages. For all other cases, welcome to this tutorial!

If you have ever dug through a large IRIS namespace looking for where a particular string, method call, or pattern was used, you know the pain: there was no built-in way to do a grep-style search across your server-side ObjectScript code from VS Code — at least not without jumping through some hoops.

That is what ObjectScript Search fixes.

Try it today with a simple install from the VS Code Marketplace. If you don't like it, uninstalling is just as easy. But I think you will like it — it is a huge quality-of-life improvement for anyone doing ObjectScript development in VS Code.

We are trying to track down significant growth within our Namespaces, one big culprit is Ens.AppData (EnsLib.SQL.Snapshot). 

Within many of our BPL's we use EnsLib.SQL.Snapshot to return Results from External SQL Stored Procedures or Query's. The same EnsLib.SQL.Snapshot context variable is used for many of these calls within a BPL. 

Is there something we should be doing at the end of the BPL to ensure that EnsLib.SQL.Snapshot gets cleaned up and purged from Ens.AppData?

Hello everyone, thanks for reading this question.

I am currently working with Ens.Alerting.ManagedAlert in an interoperability production and I am using the alert suppression mechanism to avoid generating duplicate alerts within a defined time window (for example, 30 minutes).

The configuration works correctly in terms of preventing duplicate alerts from being generated, but I have a question regarding observability.

When an alert is suppressed during the configured time window, I can see log messages such as:

        "Managed alert not created for AlertRequest with ID 'XXXX' due to rule 'Rules.
