@vinita, The answer to your question is that it is the PROPERTY of seq file that if something is being written to it (your second seq file stage), then you cannot read from it at the same time. That is, for a seq file stage you cannot have a stream input link and a stream output link at the same tim...

@Aakash,

I thought you were talking about the second seq file and not the first.

In the menu popped up, click 'Convert to Stream'. Hope it helps. Cheers Aakash Aakash, I don't think you will get th...

What Aakash has specified is absolutely correct. If you have an input link to a Seq File then the only output link can be a reject link. The significance of this reject link is that if due to some reason a particular records is not being written to the seq file, then it could be captured in this rej...
