This turned out to be an issue with the table that was created. We found out that We had not changed the field value in the table, and no issues with datastage.

We are extracting the data from a database and in the transformer stage, we are using the function Space(x) to generate the necessary spaces needed wherever the length of the input field is lesser than the necessary length. The job works fine, but ...

I tried to re-import the definition, but it still shows up the same old column length. If i manually change it , still i am not able to insert the data in that particular column as it still refers to the old one.
