Kartheek,

could you explain exactly where you are using a template and quote the error message you are getting? That would make analysis a lot easier.

Check whether you are trying to give the same path and name as the existing job.

Templates are stored on the client machine. Perhaps the path you have given does not exist on your client machine, or perhaps you lack write permission to that folder. The pathname of the folder in which templates will be stored is prompted for when the client software is installed. It's usually a subfolder called Templates where the DataStage client is installed, for example

Your template path is stored in the windows registry on your client machine. You may have been prompted for a path when you installed your client (not sure what versions had this prompt). You can change the location by modifying the registry entry or, more drastically, reinstalling the client.

I don't have DataStage installed right now so I can't tell you the registry path. Hoping someone can help.
