Welcome Aboard :D !!!

Was it a new server/ installaion? Where you able to see the stages in designer? If it was the existing and the same server where the code been developed, check if any change in permission one user id and the filesystem been changed.

No . What happened is we had a virus and datastage was acting strangly so we cleaned the machine uninstalled datastage and re-installed it. After importing the datastage jobs the problem started.
All the other jobs are working well we have client oracle 8 installed on the machine.

Sounds like you used to have an Oracle 7 client installed as well, and it no longer exists after you 'cleaned' the pc. Can you reinstall the 7 client? Or perhaps covert the jobs to use a different stage? I'm assuming you are talking about the 'Oracle 7 Load' stage...

Perhaps you can try to reinstall the plugings using dspackinst in $DSHOME/bin.
