Mirth SQL Server Database reader source, DBMaxRetries error

Question

I am using Mirth Connect Server 3.4.2.8129. I created a test channel, a very simple one which should just select the records from a table (SQL Server) and send them to a destination of type javascript writer.

I defined a database reader source and I am trying to select the records of a table. I will paste the code below.

The Javascript code I use in the Source is this (I replaced sensitive information with ***):


var dbConn;
try 
{
    dbConn = DatabaseConnectionFactory.createDatabaseConnection('net.sourceforge.jtds.jdbc.Driver','jdbc:jtds:sqlserver://***:***;InstanceName=***;DatabaseName=***','***','***');
    var results = executeCachedQuery('select * from [***].[dbo].[***]');        
    return results;
} 
finally 
{
    if (dbConn) 
    { 
        dbConn.close();
    }
}

I get the following error:

I tried searching for a setting in all the configuration files in mirth installation folder, but I didn't find any file containing it. I also unarchived the SQL Server driver (jtds 1.3.1.jar) and searched there, too, but no. I did not find anything about a DBMaxRetries.

Has anyone else face this?

Thank you.

You likely meant to call:

var results = dbConn.executeCachedQuery('select * from [***].[dbo].[***]');

According to the stack trace, you must have javascript functions executeCachedQuery and executeOperation defined, likely through a code template if you check your channel dependencies. You are calling the executeCachedQuery javascript function instead of the DatabaseConnection.executeCachedQuery API method.

$('DBMaxRetries') is attempting to pull the value from one of the mirth maps. globalMap, globalChannelMap, and configurationMap are the only ones available from a Database Reader context. If you haven't defined DBMaxRetries in at least one of these maps, it will return null.
