Heyho,

Not sure if this is a bug or if I'm doing something wrong (probably the 
latter)...

In Hop gui (2.0, win10), I have defined a database connection (tested with both 
redshift and mysql) and build a simple Workflow using the "SQL" workflow 
action. Executing the WF locally works.
>From Hop gui, I then want to execute the same workflow on a remote server 
>(running hop 2.0 in docker). When the remote run configuration has "Export 
>linked resources" disabled, this works as well.
However, if I enable "export linked resources", the workflow fails with

2022/08/19 13:15:43 - test - Starting action [SQL]
2022/08/19 13:15:43 - SQL - ERROR: No database connection is defined.
2022/08/19 13:15:43 - test - Finished action [SQL] (result=[false])
2022/08/19 13:15:43 - test - Workflow execution finished
2022/08/19 13:15:43 - test - Workflow duration : 0.008 seconds [  0.008" ]
2022/08/19 13:16:20 - Hop - Workflow execution has ended

I checked the exported zip file on the server. As expected, it contains the 
.hwf workflow definition, metadata.json and 
__workflow_execution_configuration__.xml.
The .hwf file contains the SQL action with the correct connection:
...
<action>
      <name>SQL</name>
      <description/>
      <type>SQL</type>
      <attributes/>
      <sql>SELECT 1</sql>
      <useVariableSubstitution>F</useVariableSubstitution>
      <sqlfromfile>F</sqlfromfile>
      <sqlfilename/>
      <sendOneStatement>F</sendOneStatement>
      <connection>MySQL_Test </connection>
      <parallel>N</parallel>
      <xloc>608</xloc>
      <yloc>224</yloc>
      <attributes_hac/>
    </action>
...

And metadata.json contains the respective connection string:

...{"rdbms":{"MYSQL":{"databaseName":"hop","pluginId":"MYSQL","indexTablespace":null,"dataTablespace":null,"accessType":0,"hostname":"XYZ","password":"Encrypted
 
2be98afc808d595a049a925feacf88d","port":"3306","pluginName":"MySQL","servername":null,"driverClassName":"Mysql
 
8+","attributes":{"SUPPORTS_TIMESTAMP_DATA_TYPE":"Y","QUOTE_ALL_FIELDS":"N","STREAM_RESULTS":"Y","SUPPORTS_BOOLEAN_DATA_TYPE":"Y","FORCE_IDENTIFIERS_TO_LOWERCASE":"N","PRESERVE_RESERVED_WORD_CASE":"Y","SQL_CONNECT":"","FORCE_IDENTIFIERS_TO_UPPERCASE":"N","PREFERRED_SCHEMA_NAME":""},"manualUrl":"","username":"hop"}},"name":"MySQL_Test"}....

Shouldn't this be enough for Hop to be able to execute the workflow? Yet I get 
the error that no database connection is defined. Do I need to specify the 
rdbms connections explicitly elsewhere on the server?

Cheers,
Dieter Hehn
