Is it the same data each time, including the lookups? The job fails in the 6-node configuration also. With the same d...

Chulett,
Change the XPath bits in the Description field from #PCDATA to just text()
I tried using text() instead of #PCDATA. It runs successfully.

I thank all of you for your inputs and time!

Thanks
