Hi Community,

I am attempting to create a new table by executing a SELECT statement that involves joining multiple tables. However, I encountered an error during execution: '( expected, AS found^Combined AS.' I would also like to create a cube based on this SQL table. However, during the cube creation process, I am prompted to specify a source class, and I'm unsure which class to use as it requires an existing class. Could you please help me identify the issue with the table creation, and provide guidance on selecting the appropriate source class for the cube creation?"

Feel free to let me k

Hello!

Trying to delete txt file in folder: /tmp/test

How I can delete file in Lunix system?

Good morning,

I have a question about the python version, I read in the documentation that the compatible version is 3.9.5 for the proper functioning of python on Iris.

Do we have to stay on this version or can we use newer versions?

Thanks in advance

Hi,

I am after an IRIS instance in the cloud or otherwise which will allow me to learn ObjectScript.

I can find ObjectScript learning tutorial and videos.

If so please advise the sandbox url.

If not please suggest something similar.

Tanks

I need to verify that certain .m files have been compiled and inserted into the VA mumps database.  I need to do it on a schedule and thus I want to automate it.  Because of the automation I'd prefer not to use the IRIS web app. So if there were a similar CLI version that would be great. I see there is something called /usr/bin/iris but this seems to be a maintenance tool, not a IRIS.DAT querying tool.  I'd love to be wrong about that.

Please forgive my lack of proper nomenclature, clearly I'm a n00b.

I am trying to write a ZMIRROR routine that makes a shell script call using $ZF

Set cmd = "/usr/local/sbin/failover-intengtest-vip"Do$ZF(-100,"/ASYNC /SHELL",cmd)

The script I am calling is returning an output to the screen, how do I get around this using $ZF without having to rewrite the scripts?

Thanks

This error occurs when an instance of the class is already open at compile time.

There are two ways to deal with this issue:

1. Terminate the process or application that has the instance open
2. Compile options in the studio build menu: Check the compile flag “Compile classes in use” and compile.  

If you want to determine which process is using the class, try the sample routine below.

/// Test.mac
search(classname) public {
    Set pid=""
    Set pid=$order(^$Job(pid))
    While pid'="" {
        Do checkVars(pid,classname)
        Set pid=$Order(^$Job(pid

I would like to strip the , at the end of a string. I'm able to find the start of the string using ..StartsWith(String,",") but not able to strip the "," at the end of a string.

I've tried:

Str="Addr1,Addr2,"

Piece(Str,"",1,Length(Str)-1)

Piece(Str,"",1,Length(Str)-2)

Extract(Str, Length(Str)-1)

Extract(Str, Length(Str))

But nothing works as expected.

Hi all,

The last time I used CSP was back in 2008, so I am very rusty on it.
This question might have been asked many times, and the answer probably is that it is a matter of preference.

Are there scenarios to which CSP pages is easier/better to use than classes extending from %CSP.Page?
I want to build a little thing and don't want to start at the wrong end.
Doing an API-based, heavy client-side framework is not a requirement, and I would prefer not to do it that way.

Some of the criteria

• Users need to do a login.
• RBAC per page using the instance's Users, Roles and Resources
• Call some se

HI *,

So last night I was doing a deployment which had a query to select from a large dataset of joined tables, to iterate through and populate data in a new table.

This was done in a classmethod using embedded SQL and the %PARALLEL keyword.
On a testing environment with the same dataset, this worked perfectly a few days earlier.

It was going to be a long-running process, so we started it from a csession using the JOB command.
Then get the PID with $zchild, go to Processes and monitor it there.
It would terminate after a minute or so with a <STORE> error.
The per process memory is set at 1GB. W

Hello Guys,

Our cache application uses REST web services and handles single API request perfectly with response (response status and related data). But sometimes user sends multiple requests to the same API simultaneously ( ie, without waiting for the first to respond ), where one request will succeed (not necessarily the first) and the others will fail. 
So, I need to handle the requests one by one after completing and sending the response for first request in the queue then process the next request and so on.

Is there any appropriate way of handling this problem? 

I found that, cache suppo

Hoping someone can help,

I have the "Sample FHIR Production" installed ( as described in the documentation) with the following Components:

Service: HS.Gateway.ECR.SDA3XMLFileService

Processes: HS.FHIR.FromSDA.DTL.Transaction.Process

Operations: HS.FHIR.Repository.Operations

When a patient's data gets updated in my application a new SDA3 message is generated and processed by the FromSDA DTL. The Repository Stores that data as a New patient ( i.e. when I query the Repo they have different IDs "resource":{ "resourceType":"Patient", "id":"4", ) . How do I get the record in the Repository to update rath

I am trying to get data out of a cache backup. I am completely new to Intersystems Cache.
I got a docker image of Cache from this post:

Hello

We are in the process of upgrading to 2023.1 for InterSystems Health Connect, and the Business Rule Engine editor is very difficult to use compared to 2022.1. It's difficult to scan over the rules as it all looks the same style with barely any distinction between rules, constraints, conditions, whens etc. There's also tonnes of whitespace, and searching on the page is hit and miss (using Ctrl + F) . I can see the previous editor is still available when you modify the URL, but I'm wondering if we can set it to be the default editor, and if this is something supported.

Thanks

Lewis

Hey guys,

As the year comes to a close, it's time to reminisce a little of what's gone on and what was the most important breakthrough or discovery of this year.

Hello,

I have been facing a problem for several months, I have several flows that work in SFTP with the iris class EnsLib.FTP.PassthroughService

The problem is that from time to time I get an error message that says:

"A connection could not be established because the target computer expressly refused it"

I had the case for a server at our house and we solved the problem by extending the call interval parameter to 60 seconds,

However I have the same error for an external server with exactly the same configuration as the first flow, I contacted their infrastructure department who told me th

  Hi, Community!

Since this article is an overview of Flask Login, let's begin with Flask Introduction!

What is Flask?

In the realm of web development, Python has emerged as a formidable force, offering its versatility and robustness to create dynamic and scalable applications. For that reason, tools and services compatible with this language are in demand these days. Flask is a lightweight and easy-to-use web framework for Python. It stands out as a lightweight and user-friendly option. Its simplicity and flexibility have made it a popular choice for developers, particularly for creating smaller-scale applications. It is based on the Werkzeug toolkit and provides a simple but powerful API for building web applications. 
Unlike its full-stack counterparts, Flask provides a core set of features, focusing on URL routing, template rendering, and request handling. This minimalist approach makes Flask lightweight and easy to learn, allowing developers to build web applications quickly and without the burden of unnecessary complexity.

Is it planned that LOAD DATA takes into account several DATE/DATETIME formats with, for example, a parameter indicating the format used in the source data?

example :

LOAD DATA .../...
USING
{
  "from": {
    "file": {
       "dateformat": "DD/MM/YYYY"
    }
  }
}

Hi all,
Does anyone have experience with obtaining logs from Caché databases and parsing them now? Please leave me a message.

I ask because my project involves some hospitals that used Caché when creating databases over 10 years ago. Currently, we cannot replace the database, but we need to check and parse the database logs from the Caché.

Thanks.

Hi developers!

As you know InterSystems IRIS besides globals, object, document and XML data-models also support relational where SQL is expected as a language to deal with the data.

And as in other relational DBMS InterSystems IRIS has its own dialect.

I start this post to support an SQL cheatsheet and invite you to share your favorites - I'll update the content upon incoming comments.
