The RT_CONFIGnnn hashed file is a table used when jobs run. As noted, it contains the run-time configuration; things like what stages are involved, the relationships between them, and so on. These records are used as input by the executable that runs the job.

Interesting. I teach DX436 but there is no such zip file in the materials. There are two routines (Keywords.c and Keywords2.c) in the solutions, but no zip file. Was it on the student CD or handed out by the instructor?

No there isn't. In parallel jobs it's one stage, one task. That sounds like a good reason to process through a Transformer stage. Of course that Transformer stage (or a Column Generator stage) could appear on the reject link from the Lookup stage.

Use the APT_STRING_PADCHAR environment variable to set the pad character to space. Its default value is 0x00.

The key column is coming through from the stream input, not from the refererence input. Add a reject link to prove that your lookups are failing.

It can be done with one parallel job, which has been explained (fully, I believe) in the past. In outline the technique involves splitting the stream of sorted rows using a Copy stage, sending the key through an Aggregator stage that counts them, then bringing the streams back together using a Join ...

If you follow the standard software development life cycle (that is, changes are only ever made in the development environment) then you don't need to migrate table definitions.

The environment variable must not just be included, it must be "set" (have a true value).

You can also disable combination in most stage types, on the Advanced tab of stage properties.

We just don't do APT_CombinedOperatorController errors. They could come from any of the combined operators. Disable operator combination and try again. That's the only way you'll know for sure which stage is generating the error. Certainly the fact that the error message implicates the ODBC driver i...

My car is not working. Can you tell me why?

Come on, "not working" just isn't enough. What error messages are you getting? Do you understand that the command search list needs to be set to use commands, or the full pathname of the command given?
