Started out in school writing COBOL on an IBM Series 1, bought a Tandy Color Computer 2 shortly after. 40 years later, I run IRIS on Raspberry PIs. Lots of 'em. It's a disease for which there's no escape!

  • Installed IRIS on a couple Raspberry Pi's! (4 & 5). Using it for testing some features, and I would love to use the Ensemble features for other home-based logging projects from my Raspberry Picos. Any chance for an inexpensive personal license for these wonderful little computers??? Enquiring Minds wanna know! :-)

Ronaldo,

The ChangePassword property isn't for the password, it's to set a flag if the user is supposed to change their password on next login - this property's handy for admins that assign temporary passwords and the user needs to change it to something befitting them on first login. To set the property, it's a simple 'set' like the others:

Set userObj.ChangePassword=1

And to set the initial Password is also a standard 'set':

Set userObj.Password="initialpassword"

Also, if the Roles is only %SQL, but if you're testing the login using Terminal, that user doesn't have enough rights for that functionality and you'll probably get an 'Access Denied' error. You'll either need to (temporarily) assign the %All role to that user to test, or just verify that the settings are getting set in the Management Portal.

As to the NameSpace, if the Namespace doesn't exist (typo, I've done that before) or if the user doesn't have enough rights to access that Namespace, it may not be set correctly.

Lastly, here's the documentation for the Security.Users class:  https://docs.intersystems.com/irislatest/csp/documatic/%25CSP.Documatic.cls?LIBRARY=%25SYS&CLASSNAME=Security.Us

Hope this helps!

Screenshots would certainly help, and an explanation of what the task actually does would help as well (Is it a backup, does it export data to a different system, wash the dishes maybe? :-) ). Is it possible that the task may at times take longer than 24 hours to execute? I have seen instances where a process 'hangs' so TaskMan thinks it's still running and doesn't fire up a new instance of that task.

Hope this helps!
