What does that command do? Does it have any additional screen IO?

Does "E:\putty\pscp" require any additional terminal input? Can you execute a simple "DIR" command without a problem?

Using your "Output" variable:

Code: Select all

   FieldCount = DCOUNT(Output,@FM)
   FOR x = 1 TO FieldCount
      WorkValue = Output<x>
      AnotherWorkValue = FIELD(Output,@FM,x) ;** same result as previous line, just different syntax
   NEXT x

Add a semicolon to the end of your SQL-flavor SELECT statement so that the engine knows which type of SELECT you mean. If you don't add the semicolon the engine will prompt for more code or a terminator and that is why your routine never returns.

I am getting the same error message on my AIX as well - but I don't even have DSADM access. What user are you running this as - can you try it as root?

The OBJIDNO is an I-type and is not part of the record or key. You cannot read it the way you want to, since the OBJIDNO is not unique and returns more than one record. You can use an execute to a SELECT statement and then process the returned list of record ids for that OBJIDNO.

The parameters are not the issue in this case. Is the NtwxRunProcessMultipleTest routine present in your repository? If so, compile it. If not, then you have found your error as well.[/b]

Add a semicolon to your select statement:

Code: Select all

Call DSExecute ("UV", "SELECT NAME FROM DS_JOBS WHERE NAME LIKE '%A%';", Output, SystemReturnCode)

If you execute, from UNIX, the dsjob -report for your job this information will be listed. Alternatively you can use the DS/BASIC function such as DSGetJobInfo() to retrieve the information from inside a DataStage routine.

Your error is in a transform stage, most likely you are doing a mathematical derivation and your data is not numeric. Check your derivations and you will find the source of the problem. If you still can't find it, you can look at the BASIC source in the path shown in the error message around line 28...

With PX jobs you have parallelism which might make jobs more complex (I'm not sure if you mean design-time run run-time complexity); with repartitioning and sorting. The same applies for aggregations and similar actions within the job. Job design spends a lot of time analyzing source data - that alw...

Opdas,

if you can use a BASIC transform stage you can do the conversions using OCONV and ICONV functions; but this will slow a job down - if performance is a factor then you will need to write your own c++ function.
