hi,guys
I have a job is designed like this

Folder-->XmlInput-->Transformer-->Sequential File.

when the source file is around 800M, there will be "Abnormal termination of stage XmlInput detected.

I searched in the forum, and someone said this can be solved by setting APT_DEFAULT_TRANSPORT_BLOCK_SIZE, but in server job, I dont find the parameter.

Please help me to solve the problem.
Thanks!

That is a PX variable, not one for Server. And the XML stages have a size limit on files they can process, looks like you've found yours. Any chance your file can be delivered in smaller chunks? That's a pretty unreasonable size and even the wunderkinds at Google put a limit of 100MB on the XML files you can send them.
