Match Stage error

Hi,

I am getting the below error in the Match Job:

"Match_Contact_INT,0: Variable [_qsC_ADDRESS] not found in [A] frequency file"
Though I can see the '_qsC_ADDRESS' in the frequecy dataset.

Thanks

Hi,

you have to give output from standardization process as the input to match frequency.

atleast the input columns of match frequency must be same like standardization output columns.

sometimes mismatch of metadata may cause this error.

Check out the job for the metadata...

i hope this will solve your problem

Regards

Hi do you guys have any Idea why I am getting the above error.
Basically I have one source standardised dataset, one source frequency dataset, one Verispan standardised Dataset and Verispan Freq ds for referencr match process.

I am getting the below two errors while testing match passes:
1. ##I IIS-DSEE-TDOD-00080 09:38:42(006) <MWI_Odbc_Write> Process meta data not available in database

2. ##E IIS-QSEE-MATM-00004 09:38:43(000) <QS_Test_MWI_0,0> Variable [_qsC_StateAbbreviation_USAREA] not found in [A] frequency file

I really appriciate if you have any thoughts on how to resolve these issues.

Thanks
Jan

janreddy,

Looks like in your match specification you are using the State Abbreviation field returned from the USAREA ruleset in a match command but while generating the frequency data set this field was not included


I can see two ways of avoiding this issue:

- In you match frequency stage include the field in question or better include all fields (If you don't specified a match specification in the match frequency stage all columns will be included)

- Specify that there are not frequency data available for the field using Variable Special Handling with NOFREQ while designing your match specifications


Hope this help

Hi Julio,
I successfully resolved the issue and I am able to see all the match test results but when I ran the job, I am getting the below fatal error:

main_program: Fatal Error: An operator with concurrent inputs cannot change the collectionMethod for a virtual data set if this method is defined and not equal to eCollectAny.

could you give me any resolution on how to resolve this issue.

Thank you so much..

Please begin a new thread. This error is about parallel execution and specifying an explicit collection algorithm, not about the Match stage per se.
