Yes, it can... and yes it is.

Kalpna, isn't there someone there in your organization that can help you with all these XML questions?

Not that I've ever seen.

How many components are in your VC project and how long did you wait before deciding it was frozen? Using those right-click options forces it to read through the entire repository from what I can tell, hence the question.

Are you trying to do a mass promotion?

I'm guessing that Arnd meant the name of the stage variable.

Assuming you imported the metadata so you are using the generated xpath expressions, it's usually becuase you've marked the wrong field as the key. Try moving it down to the lowest repeating element and see if that fixes it.

The connection breaks when the job run exceeds the Inactivity Timeout setting and the dsrpc connection is severed. Neo, you need to find someone with Admin privledges and have them either increase the timeout value or set it to 'Do not timeout'. That or make your job run in less time.

Have you tried searching for 'access violation'? There seem to be quite a number of posts with similar error messages in them, like this one for example. Perhaps something out there will help solve your problem.

Make sure you have an appropriate value in the Display column as well and don't simply leave it blank.

I have installed DataStage version 7.5.1A on hp-itanium unix server. Hmmm... Itanium... that's ringing some warning bells in my head. I seem to remember some issues related to that chipset on an HP server. You may want to contact support and see if there are any known issues or patches or something...

This error is because of the open file limit. You wouldn't happen to know exactly which 'open file limit', would you? You said it was 'somewhat related' to MFILES or NOFILES in an earlier post, hoping you could clarify that. Interestingly enough, yesterday when the problem was occuring, there were ...

Unfortunately, there isn't. You get an error dialogue that basically says: ACCESS DENIED: Project has been locked by the Administrator. Try again later or check with your Administrator From memory, but that's basically that's what it says. Problem is - I is the Administrator and I sure as heck didn'...
