Hi,

I am getting the following Error when I am trying to connect to DataStage Server (5.1).
Run Time Error "5": Invalid Procedure call or Argument.
After clicking on OK, I am able to view the Datastage jobs List in Designer, but unable to open any of the jobs.

Please help me on this.

Thanks.

Welcome aboard. :D
This error is occurring on the client side, which may indicate a bad installation of the DataStage client(s). Can you see the job names in Director and/or Manager? Does it work from a different PC?
The easiest "solution" may be to uninstall then re-install the DataStage clients on that machine.
Is it running Windows XP? You may need a patch.

Hi,

I reinstalled DataStage client tools in my machine. But still facing the same problem. Yaah, its working from a different PC. O/S is WIndows XP Professional, 2002, SP 2.
Can you advise me on this.

Thanks,
Latha

Is this PC on another network? Can you go to a DOS windown and either ping or tracert or telnet to the server machine?

Arnd - Latha able to view the jobs in Designer.
Perhaps she may need a patch for the machine.

Ahh - I missed that; thanks. I thought it might be a connectivity issue.

Latha - are you logging into the Designer with the same userid on your machine (which isn't working) and on the other (which is)? If not, does your userid/login work on the other client PC?

Authentication issues should not even allow to enter into to designer, but Latha can log in but cannot not open the job. But can have a try with the right user id or dsadm.
Latha - What exactly happens if you try to open the job?

If a job was created with a userid that had an incorrect umask setting, the it might be possible for one user to open and work with a job while others cannot.
