Look in the job log to verify that the job parameters are all being resolved correctly and, indeed, that the correct number of parameter markers (corresponding to the column names on the link) are being supplied. It is in the latter area that the fault most probably lies.

Doesn't matter. You have NLS enabled. Oracle reports "three bytes per character" sizing. Go with it - it works.

If you want to you can more closely qualify the data type when creating the table, using one of VARCHAR2(n BYTE) or VARCHAR2(n CHAR).

any suggestions please ! Learn patience. Your two posts were 11:51pm and 3:24am my time. How long does the Oracle query take by itself to complete (not to return the first row)? What is your job design? Are you doing normal lookup or sparse lookup? How many rows are there in the reference data? The...

ODBC has its own protocols and rules. The name of the function may be SUBSTRING rather than SUBSTR. You have to use the name that is specified in the ODBC grammar specification.

Record the identity of the owner, which is revealed when the "job locked" message box is displayed. Using the Web Console for Information Server choose Session Management and disconnect that particular session, provided that it does not belong to a currently valid user.

No, you have missed one critical point. The restartable job sequence continues to believe that the job in question has aborted (never finished successfully) so will attempt to execute it - and probably succeed if you have fixed the job. The only legal way around this is to reset or re-compile the jo...
