ds_loadlibrary: Win32 error in LoadLibrary of dsstp.so

Hello ppl,

I am getting the following error when I try to run any job with stored proc stage. Did anyone ever come across such an error. Any clues why it might be happening ?

ds_loadlibrary: Win32 error in LoadLibrary of dsstp.so

The development was done in datastage 7.5.1.A and subsequently moved to datastage 7.5

Any clues will be helpful.

Thanks
Soham

Also, Can you please tell me what are these ".so" files ? Should they be present in both windows and unix installation. I am moving from unix to windows installation. Can that be an issue ?? If so, what should be the right approach to get rid of the error

thanks

Precisely HOW are you "moving from UNIX to Windows"? Did you re-compile jobs and routines after the migration? It may be that the executables contain references to the UNIX shared libraries (the files with a ".so" or ".sl" suffix to their names).

I exported the jobs that i created in unix and imported them in windoze.
Wondering where in the job there might be a hard reference to unix library files. Yes, i compiled the jobs before running them in windows. When i exported them a dsx file was created which i guess is a source file rather than an executable.

There were some significant changes in that stage between 7.5 and 7.5.1A from what I recall. Perhaps you should take one of the offending jobs, remove the stage from it and rebuild it with the 7.5 version of the stage. Perhaps that will help.

Always a little dangerous to go 'backwards' in versions.
