"I have no idea, who at ISC wrote this recommendation " - this is the whole point ... this wasn't written by anyone at ISC, but is inferred / synthesized / arrived at by the ChatGPT algorithm.  I did several google searched on strings from the result I was given and couldn't find this anywhere.  So ChatGPT isn't copying content, it is generating it ... albeit incorrectly in this case :)

do you see this before or after you log in?  what happens if you try an incognito browser?

I just checked and the app is up.

As we looked into things further on our side, it appears as though the UNIX 'hostname'.  We were able to resolve the issue in UNIX by doing the following to change the hostname to 'mynewhost':

log in as root
hostname mynewhost
echo mynewhost > /etc/hostname

The 2nd line will change the hostname in the current processes, and the 3rd will make sure that the change will persist during a reboot.  

Hope this is helpful to someone else.

It is always interesting to see how far down the debugging Rabbit Hole you can go, but in cases where product classes are throwing errors it's always best to contact InterSystems Support.  You get bonus points if you can provide a sample class which can demonstrate the problem ;)

@Benjamin De Boe  - if you could weigh in on this (or get someone else to ... @Bob Kuszewski ?) it would be really helpful.  We are still using XML exports for my team and this would be a big blocker from going to UDL.

@Jimmy Xu  - thank you for this very simple primer for getting started with ZPM ... it is very clearly laid out!

@Benjamin De Boe - this is a great article ... thank you for the write-up!  

Bumping the thread as more people should be reading from this and can benefit from it :)

Really impressive feature!  I am curious (if you're willing to divulge), is this built on top of "Ens.Deployment.Utils" or did you create your own secret sauce at a lower level?  

Nice work!  This is definitely a pain point for interoperability sites, no question :)

@Colin Brough - all great questions!  I'll provide some thoughts and I am sure others will chime in as well.  One question that I have which may impact the answers is what your current source control approach is?  Are you using serverside source control hooks with Studio or some other approach?

  • Take Atelier off the list and drop it from consideration... it is deprecated new work shouldn't be started with it
  • VSCode is the path forward for InterSystems technologies; it used the Atelier REST APIs and therefore you can use it on Caché 2018.x (originally added in 2016.2 IIRC)
  • You can typically use VSCode alongside Studio, depending on your answer to the above question about your source control approach.  If you are using no source control, or if you are using serverside source control, then Studio and VSCode can both be used against the instance in mixed mode (my team has been doing this for years)
  • I can't speak to what you lose with VSCode but I believe that at this point the answer is either 'very little' or 'nothing' for all intents and purposes
  • I can't speak to Studio Templates (hopefully someone else can weigh in)

Hope this is a good starting point.
