:?: PuTTY is a telnet client. What's your difference between "compile through PuTTY" and "compile through telnet"? Most "not found" error messages relate to a problem with one of the search list environment variables, in your case probably PATH. In turn this suggests to...

Worth logging in today, then, wasn't it? The same thing applies at the record level - to specify DOS-style (two-character) record delimiter, you need to replace Record Delimiter property with Record Delimiter String property.

ASCL indicates "Ascential" and indicates a design source in Ascential software, probably in the MetaStage hub design. You can ignore that. The unique identifier at the end is your installation. Depending on context it may be the unique identifier of a DataStage project or of an IBM Informa...

There seem to be 35 tables in XMETA with "param" as part of their name (and none with "env" or "dsparam") in version 8.0.1 (AIX). No time for further research at the moment. But I think you're right about DSParams not being the only location where this information is st...

Look in RT_BP1130/JOB.867233938.DT.1505838351.TRANS4 in your project. The Transformer stage name will be identified in the comments.

Look around the line numbers mentioned to find out what is being divided by what, then change your design to intercept and prevent zero divisors.
