Do those other jobs have parallel Transformer stages? This error can occur if you have an incomatible C++ compiler, or the compiler can not be found. Jobs that don't need C++ (don't have Transformer or BuildOp) can still compile (= generate osh) and run happily.

Look at the second event in the job log to see whether they are there. Verify (APT_PM_SHOW_PIDS) that 2086 is indeed the job sequence. Check that these environment variables are recorded in the DSParams file in the project directory on the server. As a workaround, set them explicitly in the dsenv sc...

There isn't one out of the box - we would ordinarily recommend using COALESCE in your extraction SQL.
Otherwise build the requisite nested IF or your own custom routine or BuildOp.

Two characters at a time can be done simply in a server routine with a loop. Be sure to handle exceptions, such as argument not assigned, argument not null, argument contains odd number of digits, argument does not contain decimal numbers. You can invoke the server routine from any expression in you...

Do you have a warning limit set?

It may be preferable to bring the data to something local using DB2 Connect (perhaps via DB2 stage). Then you can use ODBC or UV stage to perform lookups locally and still use the multi-row return capability - it will be much faster than trying to do it over a network and, in bringing the data to th...

Please post in appropriate forum.

Your Informix database was created "with no logging". Therefore it will not accept COMMIT statements sent by DataStage.
