#Docker

When I run my IRIS in a Docker Container I know the host an know the mapped ports
so access is no problem.

BUT: is it possible from my IRIS
- inside a Container
- 'inside' Docker
to find the actual IP address of the Host?
This may sound strange, but for error tracking, it could be quite important.

I have installed Iris in Docker container with the above version.  I need to create an additional user to log in via ssh.  I have created a user and put in both the irisuser and irisowner groups, and created a user in iris with permissions.  But, when I run "iris session iris" I originally got an error about permissions: /usr/irissys/bin/irisdb: Permission denied.
I looked @ the /usr/irisys directory and the permissions was only (r-x------).  I changed to (dr-xr-xr-x.)and now I get a different error:
Invalid ownership for ./irisdb
Any suggestions? 

Hi folks!

I'm playing with Embedded python with IRIS trying to do some 'hello-world' exercises.

I'm running IRIS in container and have the following python code:

# Program to test coding with IRIS'Hello World'# Run IRIS Class Method 

So, when I execute it, I get the following:

$ /usr/irissys/bin/irispython /irisrun/repo/python/app.py
Hello World
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/irisrun/repo/python/app.py", line 7, in <module>
    import iris
  File "/usr/irissys/lib/python/iris.py", line 14, in <module>
    from pythonint import *
ImportError: IrisStart failed: IRIS_ACCESSDENIED (-15)

I am trying to pull down the webgateway from containers.intersystems.com and I am receiving the following errors... Please advise

[roth16@int-lxiris-vd02 tls-ssl-webgateway]$ docker pull containers.intersystems.com/intersystems/webgateway:2021.1.0.215.0

I'm trying to run IRIS for Health Community Edition container on Mac (Apple chip) as follows

docker run --name iris -d1972

but it will error out to start

17

If I do not provide a durable volume, it will start w/o any issues.

Any thoughts about that?

Thanks

Hi folks!

Sometimes building an images via docker-compose.yml can take significant time.

And often after a minute or two of waiting it turns out that ports listed in docker-compose are busy and you need to start building process again with different ports or to turn down processes that took it.

Is there a way to check ports listed in docker-compose BEFORE starting the image baking process?

How do you deal with this problem?

Hello everyone,

I am attempting to implement continuous integration using Docker with Caché 2018.1, and I am in the process of creating an image for our client. I have already installed Caché 2018.1 on the RedHat server, but I am working on a script to create the database and namespace. For the database, I used the following code:

do ##class(SYS.Database).CreateDatabase("/usr/cachepoc/cache2018/mgr/poc/")

However, I have encountered some issues with this code.

Hi folks!

When I launch IRIS as a docker container instance, e.g. like this one:

docker run --name iris-sql -d --publish 9091:1972 --publish 9092:52773 intersystemsdc/iris-community

And then try to connect to it e.g. via irissqlcli it says I need to change the password:

irissqlcli iris://_SYSTEM:SYS@localhost:9091/USER

Password change required

I know that I can open Management portal http://localhost:9092/csp/sys/UtilHome.csp and change password manually, but is there a programmatic way?

Say if I have a password in a file and I can just provide it to docker instance for the change?

I was wondering if someone could help me. I do not have docker available to me however a lot of the Open Exchange apps require it. Since I am using a Virtual Windows Machine I can not get docker installed, so I was wondering how to get around this? Someone at GS2022 suggested looking at the docker_compose.yml to figure out how to get around docker, but I am not sure I understand how to read it. 

Does someone have any quick solutions to get around docker compose? Or can tell me how to read a docker compose so that I can install some Open Exchange and or additional InterSystems components?

Hello,

I'm using CircleCI to spin up the image `store/intersystems/irishealth-community:2021.2.0.649.0`.

When building the application we are getting messages that say:

ERROR #5373: Class 'EnsLib.HL7.Message', used by 'Package.Class', does not exist
Skip class Package.Class

Other missing classes seem to include, but not limited to:

Ens.BusinessProcessBPL
Ens.BusinessService
EnsLib.RecordMap.ComplexChild
EnsLib.EDI.XML.Document
Ens.

Hi folks!

Lately (maybe last 2-3 years) I develop with IRIS exclusively in docker - so iris instance I use for compiling and running IRIS apps is local.

And most every time I enter password for management portal and web-apps. The same password every time. Sounds familiar?

Is there an easy way to have a parameter in docker build for a "dev-mode" that will not ask me a password?

here is the command I run 

docker pull containers.intersystems.com/intersystems/iris-community:2024.1

docker run --name iris -d --publish 1972:1972 --publish 52773:52773 91b900c4baf5

docker ps

Has anyone seen this before? I'm new/bad at Docker and not even sure how to debug.

Hi,

I am using the container image 2023.1 and am hitting a max total db size error.  However, this post indicates that the issue should have been resolved in Community edition 2019.3

Hi all

I'm testing migrating our existing installers (without ZPM) using the docker dev template as a basis with a commercial image and licence key.

So far everything builds as I expect, but the one issue I have is the production doesn't apply itself automatically.

In my iris.script I have custom installer that uses this manifest below but it does not observe the last three steps

<NamespaceName<<

As a workaround I do a compile in iris.

Hi developers!

Those who code IRIS solutions in VSCode using Docker often use the convenient ObjectScript menu, which contains links to Management Portal, Class Reference, Unittest portal, Productions, etc.

While drilling down to a Dev Container to code Embedded Python there is no such option, at least within my settings:

So I don't know how to connect to it. 

Thoughts?

Hello,

In response to the infrastructure needs of our company's service, I've created a small API that sends SNMP queries to InterSystems to visualize relevant data for retrieval when the infrastructure implements monitoring.

However, I'm experiencing a timeout issue when attempting to collect information using an SNMP walk. Here is the code for my API's SNMP service:

importfrom"net-snmp"()

I do have the 'session created' console.log, so I am able to successfully create the SNMP session. However, I encounter this error: 'error: RequestTimedOutError: Request timed out.

I am working on a setup using the iris docker image (iris:2020.4.0.547.0).  I need the timezone to be a different timezone than the host.  Is there a way to do that by passing in an options / variable? 

Hi community members!

I'm trying to deploy a container based on IRIS Community for Health ML image available from this url but when I start the container the memory consumption skyrockets to 99% making impossible to work with the instance (it never goes below the 95% of the memory). When I do the same with the IRIS Community for Health image it never goes over 80% of memory.

Is this a known problem? Should I try another version? Maybe have I just to sit down in a corner and cry like a baby?

Hello,

How can I send a request via a SOCKS5 proxy in IRIS, using, for example, EnsLib.REST.Operation?

Background

I need to access APIs inside my corporate network, to which I don't have direct access from my home office. I've set up a SOCKS5 proxy via SSH on my host machine like this:

ssh -D 9999 server.corporate.com

I can then make requests with curl to the APIs I need:

curl -x socks5h://localhost:9999 https://api.corporate.com/api/some/endpoint

And I receive a response. Simple!

Also, inside the containerized IRIS, I can execute the request:

curl -x socks5h://host.docker.internal:9999 https://api.corporate.com/api/some/endpoint

I am trying to get the Apache Web Gateway with Docker running on a development RHEL 8 machine so I do not have to config the Web Gateway and Apache apart from each other. I noticed the Apache Web Gateway docker image is using IRIS Community Edition. However when I try to run the docker image with podman I am running into issues with the IRIS setup. I was wondering if someone could help me. When I get the image to run I am seeing the following errors...

For quite some time I am bored by slowly starting Docke Demos from OEX.
I type

docker-compose up - d

and after a few seconds

docker-compose logs

And I just see ISC Agent was started and is hanging around
No IRIS instance is up yet.

To prepare a migration to IRIS I use Docker images.
The (aged) application is built around Caché Terminal
And on Windows,  IRIS uses the same ctelnetd.exe as Caché.

In my Docker installation, Telnet Settings are just grayed out in SMP.
and my Terminal can't 'connect.
Port mapping is OK and verified with TCP

Working from the console in Docker with the whole set of ESC and
screen formatting is not acceptable.
We tried WebTerminal but there is just no Partition behind as in Terminal.

How can I switch on Telnet support in the Docker image?
 

Thanks to @Dmitry Maslennikov I have access to a Container for Caché.
It is based on Centos.
Is there anywhere a container based on Ubuntu available?

I've tried to access this morning at https://containers.intersystems.com/contents and I'm receiveing a 503 as answer.

Come on! I need my dosis of IRIS + Docker!

Hi, guys,

A client is trying to launch a irishealth community docker image on centos 7.6 but failed

How to fix the problem? Thanks.

Good afternoon,

I'm trying to start an instance of the Community Edition with Docker and I get the following error.

I tried downloading the object-script template directly from OpenExchange, but one of these two things always happens:

1 - It gets stuck starting up forever

[+] Building 147.0

Hi, 

I have a problem when starting the docker container that the collation is standard US

sample:

docker run --name iris1 -d --publish 1972:1972 --publish 52773:52773 containers.intersystems.com/intersystems/iris-community:2022.1.0.209.0 --check-caps false

After the installation I like to import existing classes and globals but it failed due to an collation error 

We usually use DEUW = German3 

if I change it manually - in the management portal / NLS. -  to DEUW it works fine.

IS anyone else having issues logging into the container registry?  I log in and it just says logging in and hangs?

I am fairly new to using Docker, and instead of trying to get IIS, a Web Gateway, and Docker desktop working within my Windows environment, I thought I would try running it in a WSL2 Ubuntu environment since this is similar to how use it on my server. I have installed Apache and the Web Gateway on my WSL2 Ubuntu.

I went through Apache Web Gateway with Docker | InterSystems Developer Community however that is already bundled and requires TLS certificate setup which I don't care about since this is running locally on my machine.
