My (implied) solution is "don't do it".

Otherwise track down a command line mechanism for invoking your package and use that, perhaps from an External Source stage if stdout will receive the required output from the package.

Just an idea, since you're on a very old version: can you handle the XML as a VarChar (or Long VarChar) data type within your job design? Ignore (or demote) any metadata mismatch alerts.

Since you have not specified what name resolution technique you are using it's hard to comment but, yes, hard coding IP address to name mapping in the hosts file should successfully resolve this issue.

Also APL ("a programming language", would you believe?), but I considered that to be a variant of PL/I so did not include it.

Not easily, because the error is being reported by the Sybase OC library, not by DataStage.

At the lowest levels the DataStage server engine is largely written in C. Once upon a time there was some FORTRAN and PL/I in there too, but I believe that's no longer the case. Only the "public" levels are written in DataStage BASIC. The clients are written in a mish-mash of languages, in...

Another approach might be to join/lookup with a complete list of numbers, which you could generate within the job. The beginning and end numbers could be provided as job parameters.

You will need sorted data, and you will need to operate in Sequential mode. Use a Transformer stage. Use stage variables to "remember" the value from the previous row. Use a loop to traverse the interval between that and the current row's value, sending values less than the current row's v...

My guess would be inadvertent closure/re-use of a file unit within the application. Only IBM could give you a definitive answer on that.

Could be. Take a look at the score - the Lookup stage actually generates two operators - one to build (and index) the lookup data set in memory (LUT_CreateOp) and the other actually to use the reference data set (LUT_ProcessOp (this name varies in different versions)). This is known as a composite o...

Given that the error message mentions REST I'd be looking for some inappropriate use of a REST API. I wonder if that's how the Assembly Editor actually works under the covers?

I don't think it's SalesForce per se; it would appear that the resource file that contains error and other messages (for example DS_RESENU for English US) has become inaccessible - or was not installed in the first place.
