Hi ,

I am trying to create my project in different location. while trying to add the ptoject i am getting the following error 'DSR.ADMIN: The project location is invalid.'

I am not using the default directory /home/dsadm/Ascential/DataStage/Projects.

might be due to privilages of the dsadm in the unix directory structure.

check that the user (dsadm) should have the access to create the directory structure.

Yes.

The directory you specify must not exist.
Its parent directory must exist, and you must have read, write and execute permission to it.

Ah. Missed that. The answer is a qualified yes - you need to be on version 5.2 or earlier (one of the versions built on genuine UniVerse) - then you could use UV/Net.

But, for version 6.0 or later, the answer is that the project must be on a local disk - not even on an NFS mount - on the machine where the DataStage engine is installed.
