[General repository interface 'other error']

Post by vardhan354 »

Folks,

I have a job sequencer where it calls jobs (multiple instances of 2 jobs).
When the first job is completed, it calls the second one...and this process
happens for multiple instances.
The situation right now is whenever the first job is completed, it is not
calling the second job and is throwing the following error.

Controller problem: Error calling DSRunJob(Job name.1), code=-99
[General repository interface 'other error']

I'm not able to come to make any conclusion out of that message.

Please add your comments.....

Thanks

Go into the director and check the status of that job. A code -99 means that its not in a runnable state. Recompile it and try it again.

I'm getting this same error and all that changed was that I migrated a change in a job from development to production by exporting and importing it with manager. Then it began giving this error. No matter if I compile or clear the status it continues. Any ideas?

Hi
From previous post
Check this:
Rebuild index in DataStage.

Log in DS administrator and select the project and click on command. Then type 'DS.REINDEX ALL' that will build indices to the project.

Make sure no-one is logged in

Did the export include the job executables and job source code? If not, then you will need to recompile the job designs in the new project. It's probably a good idea to do so in any case.
