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

SetUp:

As you all probably know, Health Connect / IRIS for Health natively supports DICOM messaging, and many of you will have used it daily. Well, I recently discovered a rather insidious little issue that our beloved @Alberto Fuentes gave me the solution.

We (I) will call this phenomenon the Creosote effect (those of you who know Monty Python will understand the reference, for the rest you can see the sketch here )

Mr.

I created a table profile dashboard on Power BI, but I wonder if is possible to do it in Iris by creating a class.

HealthShare Clinical Viewer 2022.2.2 Build: 1000 Adhoc: 23127 [HealthShare Modules: Core:24.0 + Clinical Viewer:24.0] - IRIS for UNIX (Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 for x86-64) 2022.1 (Build 209_0_23127U) Mon Feb 12 2024 18:21:53 EST [Core:24.0|Clinical Viewer:24.0]

Hi Community,

Preparing for InterSystems Certification examsrequires more than reading documentation. It calls for focused practice aligned with real exam objectives.If you are planning to validate your expertise in HL7, SQL, System Administration, or Development, structured preparation can make a significant difference.

🧑‍🏫 Exam preparation platform

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!

Hello to all the esteemed members of the InterSystems developer community in Spanish!

Although I often consult the developer community and have occasionally left a question here, this will be my first article, and what better occasion to do so than by participating in the 3rd technical article contest.

The topic I will cover in this article is the different tools that InterSystems IRIS provides us to optimize both the databases and the queries we run, as well as the new types of storage and data.

The problem

How many times have we migrated an IRIS Instance to another machine, maybe even another version, and after a few days realized we forgot that one SSL Configuration critical for a Business Operations to work? Or maybe a credential, or a lonely class in a package by itself?

The solution

The simple solution is to make a checklist¹. A checklist of the entities we have to move. But simple checklists on Word documents are often forgotten, or just ignored.

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?

Hi Community,

We're super excited to share that we launched another free, interactive tutorial designed to give you a little taste of InterSystems Data Studio.

🧑‍🏫 Introduction to InterSystems Data Studio 🧑‍💻

Hi Community,

Out of almost 200 applications, 26 selected teams will begin a 3-month fully virtual journey at Caelestinus. The cohort brings together pre-seed to seed stage startups from across the globe, spanning the United States, South America, Europe, South Korea, and Singapore.  

During the program, teams will enhance their solutions by building in interoperability, gaining an understanding of key digital health standards, and transforming them using InterSystems IRIS for Health and FHIR Server with the help of InterSystems experts.

We're pleased to invite everyone to watch the Caelestinus 2026 Kickoff Event streaming, where you can discover which teams were selected and learn about their innovative ideas.

Please watch the streaming via www.caelestinus.tech starting at 9 AM ET / 2 PM CET on March 25th 2026.

You can also watch the recording of the opening event here.

 Hi everyone,

I’m currently working with InterSystems IRIS and handling large datasets where some queries are starting to take longer than expected.

So far, I’ve tried basic indexing and reviewing query structures, which helped a bit, but I still feel there is room for improvement. My goal is to reduce response time, especially for frequently used queries in a production environment.

Hello Community!

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

👉Getting Started with OAuth 2.0 on InterSystems 👈

📅 Date & time: March 25th, 3:00 PM IDT

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.

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

Hi Community,

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

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.

Hi Community,

We’re excited to introduce two new Global Masters milestone badges that recognize outstanding long-term contribution on the Developer Community.

These badges are part of the Global Masters program and reward members who reach major publishing and participation milestones on DC.

More badges and updates are coming soon - stay tuned 😊

	🏆 Legend Author Awarded for publishing 100 articles on the Developer Community.	100,000 points
	❓ Curiosity Legend Awarded for asking 100 questions on the Developer Community.	60,000 points

Keep publishing. Keep asking. Become a Legend. 🚀

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.
