I get the following error message. I tried to login locally to the DS administrator in order to check the NLS setting but yet it gives me the error.
Pls help.


"Invalid Universe mark characters have been sent from the server, code page 936 may not support these characters, or you may need to install Datastage NLS".

Login with telnet. If that doesn't work, login on the server itself (maybe using Remote Console). Check the NLS settings. Make sure they match the code page set for the Windows environment on your client machine.

There are others using the Languae support on their local machine but they have no problem with accessing their jobs. the others did not specify NLS when installation and it still works why ???

What's different between your client machine and theirs?

Clearly "nothing" is not the correct answer - otherwise they'd be behaving identically.
