[Bug]: "Informix Servername" field value not saved or used in Informix connections

[pfabrici]

Apache Hop version?

2.19

Java version?

OpenJDK 21.0.11

Operating system

Linux

What happened?

When configuring a connection to an Informix database via the UI dialog, the Informix Servername field is displayed and allows input. However, the entered value is neither saved in the respecting json file nor used for subsequent connection attempts. As a result, all connections to Informix databases fail.

The value should be saved and used in the INFORMIXSERVER part of the JDBC URL for the connection, allowing successful connections to Informix databases.

This worked in 2.16. and failed after an update.

To Reproduce

1. Open the database configuration dialog.
2. Select Informix as the database type.
3. Enter a value in the INFORMIXSERVER field.
4. Save the configuration.
5. Attempt to connect to the Informix database.
