OK this is fixed and works fine.
Some hints from personal experience

  • make sure your phone is operational
  • use a fresh API key
  • use an anonymous browser session
  • speak English or American

Sorry, there is a bug:

from config.py:

# Default config variables
import json
import os
import sys
import base64

APP_PATH = os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__))
JSON_CONFIG_PATH = APP_PATH+"/config.b64"
.....

BUT it is missing in your repo:

irisowner@2bbb2b066320:~/dev$ irispython ./rh/flask/main.py
/home/irisowner/dev/rh/flask/app/config.b64 not found

Ooops !

No discussion: Business Operation and Outbound adapter is a combination you should not break 

But to trigger a second Business OP You just need a Business Service that you kick,
no need for a Busines Process in between. Old ENSDEMO shows such examples.
eg. DemoRecodMapper

Here the FileService is the driving part.
another example uses a service that triggers itself DemoDashboard

It just lives on his timeout setting
Here it has nothing to do then updating some properties
But it could be anything. eg Kicking another Business Operation

Translation from the French community posted by @Lorenzo Scalese 
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi,

ISC should keep a copy of the original repo until a new release on OEX (this is eventually the case already)
If a package gets orphaned, it seems to be complicated to hand it over to another member of the community if this copy doesn't exist. 

The account on GitHub could have been closed or the repo could have been deleted. This complicates the situation. We could. of course, try to recover the content from ZPM. But this could be wuite a huge effort of re-engineering. [ If it is available in ZPM at all. -rcc]

Regarding the deletion of the package.
I'm not against the idea, IF there is a valid reason.
It happened to me that I deleted a package because a new functionality of IRIS made it obsolete.
Anyhow, I left the repo on GitHub public in order not to lose the contained knowledge.

In that case, we could decide on an option to "archive" the package 
Not everybody works with the latest version of IRIS. So this might be interesting in some cases.

Thank you & Merci @Lorenzo Scalese

Just to complete the case  mailing was step 0 way back
I received no reply  and canceled the related PR which was out of data after 3+ months

You can see 2 examples of the adoption of orphaned  OEX packages here:
Besides the pure bug fixes, I applied some other enhancements for comfort

  • pointer to the orphaned predecessor
  • fixed Dockerfile to be version-independent
  • fixed pending mapping of SuperServer
  • added support for IPM
  • added installation guide
  • added quality tag
  • added demo server
  • added screenshots
  • enhanced README

Case #1) https://openexchange.intersystems.com/package/JSONExportManyToMany
GitHub:  https://github.com/rcemper/JSONExport-ManyToMany-AD

Case #2) https://openexchange.intersystems.com/package/Samples-FHIR-Oximeter-Devices
GitHub:  https://github.com/rcemper/Samples-FHIR-Oximeter-Devices-AD
The packages on OEX are still pending for approval and not public yet.

Today I had to process a rather sad exercise. 😢

For about 15 recognized packages in OEX I had to cancel my previous reviews
because the packages were broken. 
They could have been fixéd easily as there were PRs ready.
But for more than 3 months these fixes were just ignored by their owners.
On top of it:
A significant part of them was highly awarded in previous contests

I'm deeply disappointed, as the Quality of Packages in OEX was a personal focus.
However, I have to accept that quality has lost importance also in this
narrow section of my life.

😞

Thank you @John Murray !
As I haven't been forced to use VCS up to now I leave the check to someone more experienced.
I use personally WebTerminal just for access to the Demo Server.
So I have no direct pain. It's more a warning

  1. SMP > System Operation > Databases shows the size o your DB   8192 is the default
    you have to match te blocksize of your backup source
  2. /usr/lib/iris/mgr/ is IRISSYS or the HS equivalent
    a direct restore may destroy your running installation.
    restore it in a parallel DB and import only uncritical parts.
  3. in SMP > System Adnin > Config > Sys Config > Local DB

Investigating WebTerminal.core shows a top-quality redirect construct
designed specifically for ObjectScript.
I doubt that Embedded Py is able to make use of it.

Robert Cemper · Sep 5, 2023 go to post

I think I found the deeper cause of the problem.
In WebTeminal both $P and $I point to  a /nul device
Standard input from a NUL device is a NUL_string in any programming language I know
As you can see this is happening here;

I assume this is a design issue of WebTerminal and a mismatch with Embedded Py

I like it!
I wonder if this would work also for Horse Races or Roulette or BlackJack or Baccarat.

The variable can't be the problem
BUT the typical default structure is /iris/sys/<instance name>/mgr/<namespace>

The "L" in your Open makes me nervous.
From the description, it seems to hang and wait for unlock not In IRIS but at OS-FileSystem Level.
The description of "L" seems to give some chance for such a conflict. 

L   Locked Exclusive: Use this mode with the “W” (Write) mode to specify exclusive write access to a file. “WL” or “WRL” specifies that the current process has exclusive write access to the file. A file opened with “RL” may still have shared read access. The effects of the “L” mode on concurrent opens are different in Windows and UNIX®. Refer to the “OPEN Mode Locking” section, below, for further details. On UNIX® systems if one process specifies “WL” (or “WRL”) access to a file, other processes requesting read access to that file must specify “RL” so that UNIX® can coordinate file locking.

suggested testing:

  • Check the situation without "L"
  • If there is a difference: find out who else may lock at OS level

Hi @Lorenzo Scalese 
I guess you are looking for class(%Utility).FormatString()

USER>set lb=$lb(1,"Lorenzo",2023,"RCC"_$c(13,10))
USER>write lb
      LorenzoçRCC
 
USER>zzdump lb
0000: 03 04 01 09 01 4C 6F 72 65 6E 7A 6F 04 04 E7 07         .....Lorenzo..ç.
0010: 07 01 52 43 43 0D 0A                                    ..RCC..
;;;;;  this is it
USER>set viewlb=##class(%Utility).FormatString(lb)
 
USER>write viewlb
$lb(1,"Lorenzo",2023,"RCC"_$c(13,10))
USER>zwrite viewlb
viewlb="$lb(1,""Lorenzo"",2023,""RCC""_$c(13,10))"

Objectscript uses double quotes for strings.
Single quote is Negation

Totally correct.
This is what the example describes:
and the consequence is that you have to spin through ALL GetOrgUpdatesResponse objects
A less impressive design.
So you need to add an index on the ELEMENTS of your  Property Organizations
to find all affected objects.

Robert Cemper · Aug 24, 2023 go to post

in this case store it in  +$HOROLOG format as explained
and leave the conversion to   YYYY-MM-DDT00:00:00Z  to output
using

  • $system.SQL.TOCHAR(+$h,"YYYY-MM-dd")_"T00:00:00Z" or
  • $zd(+$h,3)_"T00:00:00Z"

+$h stands for your property DOB as %Date

Robert Cemper · Aug 23, 2023 go to post

Your transformation produces  a YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:SS string
in contradiction 
Property DOB As %Date;   expects an Integer similar to +$h 
The error is reported during Validation before %Save() of  your record

  • either you change  Property DOB As %String;
  • or use '$zdateh(source.DOB,7,,,,,,,,"")'   then ##class(%Date).IsValid(...)  is happy
