Hi Vic.

I hadn't considered that the change in that post would have that effect, as the change was to bring back the ability to set a refresh rate on certain pages - good spot. The Activity Monitor page certainly suggest it should always be refreshing every 60 seconds anyway, so I guess it's another section of the product that had its refresh broken by the changes in 2019... smiley

I was hoping to avoid reinventing the wheel as the dashboard is otherwise functional, but I guess we can't win them all.

I don't suppose you know if 2020 contains any improvement in this area?

Hi Vic.

This is what I expected to work as well, but for some reason the messages don't route if I try this method.

For example this works:

HL7.{PIDgrpgrp(1).ORCgrp(1).OBR:UniversalServiceIdentifier.identifier} contains "ABC"

But this doesn't:

HL7.{PIDgrpgrp(1).ORCgrp().OBR:UniversalServiceIdentifier.identifier} contains "ABC"

Even though I'd expect the "HL7.{PIDgrpgrp(1).ORCgrp().OBR:UniversalServiceIdentifier.identifier}" to return something along the lines of "<ABC><XYZ><LMN>" and therefore would be picked up by the contains function.

Hi Joao.

Here is the working version of the code I referred to - I'm sure someone here can probably look at it and refactor it into 4 lines, but it does the job smiley

Hi Joao.

I have a task that runs every x mins to check a folder for files older than y mins, and it then sends an alert to Ens.Alert to then trigger an alert to our team. The logic is, if the file has been sat in the folder for more than the defined period, it is effectively "queued".

However, as I went to dig it out, I have realised I made a mistake with subtracting the seconds from the Horolog near midnight...

I'll try clean it up, and then see if it safe to submit here :)

All the documentation I have read advises against recompiling like that:

"You could also use the $SYSTEM.OBJ.CompileAllNamespaces() method to recompile all namespaces, but you should not do this when upgrading a HealthShare installation. You should not recompile a namespace used for HealthShare."

Were any errors returned when you ran this?

It might be worth checking with WRC to see if there's anything they can advise on?

Doesn't answer your question, but I use Winmerge with some tweaks to the settings to make the highlighting a little nicer:

If I need to compare 1000s of messages from two sets of transforms, I then point their outbound to a single fileout (or since I upgraded to 2019.1, using the export) and then compare the two files.

Hi Vandrei.

Have a look at the learning site: https://learning.intersystems.com

Here you will find learning paths for what you want such as Building Your First Application with Caché and Learn Caché for Developers.

There is also classroom training that can be arranged with Intersystems, but it might be good to give yourself exposure with the above before considering such courses. 

It might be unrelated, but I recently had a similar issue when installing healthconnect on a windows 10 machine with Kaspersky Endpoint Security.

Kaspersky was being triggered by some temp files created by the installer, and placing them in quarantine. This was then leaving the installer showing it had completed, but with the progress bar still showing. I never did leave it for as long as you did to then get the error you didn't save.

The weird thing was that Kaspersky only reported a virus with the installer on specific versions of Windows 10.

I ended up submitting the installer to Kaspersky so that they could white list it. 

Long story short, check the reports section within Kaspersky and see if it interfered with your install. smiley
