unable to open file from location

Post by svkworld »

I am getting this error while running the ds job. I checked the location of the file. I don't know why I am getting this error. Its a .dbf file. I added ODBC driver to read .dbf file. I have some other .dbf files and they worked fine. This file is 20GB in size. Does size matters?

SQLSTATE=S0002, DBMS.CODE=30040
[DataStage][SQL Client][ODBC][DataDirect][ODBC dBase driver]Cannot open file

Appreciate any input.

Double check the location of the file that you have specified in the DSN. Check that you have permission to open the file. Size should not be a problem just to open the file.

Also try
the file name is correctly spelled(Do not copy & paste file name...instead try typing it in.)
