The error message you are getting should contain a bit more information than what you posted, could you perhaps add some more detail to the error so that we can see the actual library causing the error and what type of error was encountered?

HI Arnd,
Thanks for your response. :D

I have checked my director.No more message.except ds_loadlibrary: error in dlopen.
But the Event type here is different.This is not a usual type like info,warning or fatal instead its like other=21 :shock:

Any idea on this?

Please post the detail of the error message, which includes information about what stage it occurred in. You also need to tell us what kind of stage was involved, and an overview of the job design would help also.

Ultimately we need to establish what was trying to be opened, so that we can narrow down the search for the likely library.

Please do a reset-job and then see if there is a log entry for "from previous run".

What stages does this job use? Could it be an add-on plugin or package that you had installed on your Windows site and don't in your your installation? Try to do a view-data on the sources and targets.

Hi,

Are you able to view data through oracle stage?
Is the job impored from some other project or version of project?
If you can able to view the source and target data (which make sure there is no connection issues) how about simplifying the transformation logic (if you have any)
How about trying export and reimporting the job again.

HI friends, :D

Im getting the ds_loadlibrary:error in dlopen
message when im trying to view the data.

while importing the meta data im getting the following error

unable to initialize plugin.

Now i got an idea :idea: that this problem arises becz of the priviledge issue.
I will check with my admin and revert back to you later.

Anyway thanks for all your support.

HI FOLKS, :D
We rectified the problem with the help of Ascential tech people.

Its something related with Oracle library pointing to wrong path.

Thanks for all your support.

We just experienced a similar issue on a newer install. The issue was that ORACLE_HOME was not getting set properly in dsenv. (Root cause was related to /etc/oratab not having a valid entry on this server.)

"dot" the dsenv ( . ./dsenv) then check the environment variables. Make sure ORACLE_HOME and LIB are set properly to point to your Oracle libraries on your server. You can also look in the environment variable settings as displayed in the 2nd line of a job log from a given run.
