DSXchange

That's interesting. I was using it for a short time to switch between our 6 and 7 clients (while we were testing 7.0.1) and it did not require a reboot. This was under XP Pro, for what that's worth.

Good to know you got it straightened out!

Yah, sorta forgot about that option.

So, nobody out there yet has any experience with this... Ken? Vince? Anyone? Bueller?

You could search the forum, the generic issue of "upgrading" from older versions has been discussed many times. Typically - unless you are involved in a upgrade-everything-all-at-once exercise like Ray is (fun!) - simply install the new version over the old version. It will automatically upgrade you...

Thanks, Guys. I don't have alot of time to provide detailed answers over the course of the day when I'm supposed to be working, especially lately. Now that I'm home... you've covered all of the bases. nsm - this should definitely get you started! The rest comes from setting up a job, running some of...

Can someone explain exactly how the current Server CPU licensing model works? My current company is licensed for 8 CPUs. Right now it is running on a 6 CPU box and was running on an 8 CPU box in the past. All is well and good up to this point. Now, in the very near future the server will be upgraded...

It's very straight-forward and fully documented. There should be online help available from the Stage itself and a .pdf document for it in your "Docs" directory under your Client installation. Check them out and give it a try. If you have issues after you've played with it, come back with some speci...

Actually, in most cases you don't need any 'code' on a reject link. If you simply mark the 'Reject Row' check box, two things will happen: 1) Any rows which do not go down any previous rows will be routed out the Reject link. Link ordering is very important here. 2) In addition to that, any rows rej...

Pivot Stage.

You're welcome.

Doesn't sound like you want to "do nothing" actually, it sounds like you want to keep the old value. Is this an expression in a Transformer? If so, simply refer to the original first file's field name where you are trying to put "null".

Need more information...

What Database is this and what Stage are you using to access it? Please post the entire error message as well.

Check the online help. You want the first one.

Always nice when four of the five entries so far are from the OP. More info. Rebooting made no difference. Turns out what is happening is this - I can run any kind of normal O/S command (like "ls -l", for example) and anything using default shell (sh) syntax. What coredumps for me is when I need to ...

You will be fine - as long as you separate this into two actions. You'll need to determine which records need updating and which records need inserting before this step and then take the appropriate path. You can't do this in a single step because of the mis-match in the number of columns. Either th...

Are you sure this is using an OCI plugin? Question mark parameter markers are from stages like ODBC, OCI uses numbered parameters like :1, :2, etc - unless that's the way it works back in Version 4. I don't remember it working like that, but it's been awhile. The other issue you've got is the number...

I haven't looked at this tool in a little while... do the docs mention what versions it supports? A 4.x client might be a little too old for it and it may be messing up the registry changes when making the switch.
