This is likely because your $DSHOME/dsenv file has not the correct variables such as shared library path set.
Try reading the client plug-in installation and configuration pdf documentation installed with your DS client.

Or search the forum. This has been covered before.
Good luck,

I know this not what you are planning...
but sometimes different approaches are helpful.

Could you write to a staging table, then, if the job completes successfully, you can move data from staging into production. Otherwise truncate the staging table ?

Yes you are all correct it was because the col was null :roll:

So does setting an input column's 'Nullable' property to 'No' have no effect ?

Does it need to be a bubble sort for some reason? Windows has built in sort filter command. If you had your array in a file (or put it in one) like infile.txt... You could have a prejob something like: - sort < infile.txt > sortedfile.txt Then in your job, pick up the sequential file sortedfile.txt ...

Are you using unconditional triggers?

The conditional triggers can be used to determine if an activity succeeds (or fails etc) which implies waiting for a result.
