Thanks Ray . But its puzzling that varchar / integer works when the range look up is done on the stream column .

So does it mean that I cannot have alphabet keys when the range is on the reference look up (key_range.txt).

Thanks,
Vinod

Can you please check the timeout setting in the administrator. This issue normally pops up when the time out is set for say 1 hour and the job runs for more than the the timeout set .

Thanks,

This issue has been resolved. One of our shell clients F-Secure had remote forwrding set instead of local forwarding which started the second rogue listener process.

Has someone specifically started an instance of dsrpcd intended to listen only to localhost (127.0.0.1)? If so, why? Or it may have something to do with your specific tunnelling protocol - you'd have to ask your support provider about that. Thanks ray. I will check that but i am skeptical as the ds...

Hi Ray,
Looks like the issue was fixed and it was due to a bad Configuration file.Is there a way to put the job design in the posts,if so can you please let me know how.

Yes these are seperate data sets and they are mutually exclusive.

Thanks,
Vinod
