Re-read Paul's response. The additional information you provided does not obviate the fact that you need WAS running where currently it is not.

I thought that the Dads and Grads would have been more likely to have had this particular experience if anyone had.

Alas 'twould seem that no-one has.

You have seen an unexpected internal error that you probably won't be able to reproduce.

If it happens again, involve your official support provider, always best for internal errors.

Why do you not specify the same encoding (UTF-8) that Teradata is using?

The lookup functions in the Modify stage, such as lookup_int16_from_string(), may suit your requirement.

Is it repeatable for those two projects?
Are the identifiers (host names, project names) spelled correctly and in the correct case?

Teradata is using some kind of Unicode encoding (such as UTF-8). Your job is specifying VarChar(20) but is not specifying Unicode in the Extended column of the Columns grid.

Courier New is wasteful of screen space. Also, the Data Viewer (log viewer) has to work with all character sets, and not all of these are supported by Courier New (for example the CJK language character sets). That's why it will never happen out of the box.

Well, the typeface is not stored in the log, it's a function of the viewing interface. You could always write your own log viewer.

It needs this information so that the SAP components can talk to the installed Information Server components. It will not install another engine. Give precisely the same information that you used when installing Information Server.
