DSXchange

Hi DSXians,

When i click on merge stage in DS designer it hangs up.Later i have to stop the process.No issues with any other stages.I reinstalled the ds client after removing the source directory it previously installed,but of no use.

But one more suggession in dsxchange is to clear off registory entries for all ascential installation,before reinstall.Could you please let me know,how to find registory entries of datastage or any other solution to this problem?

Thanks in Advance

Have you used 'regedit' before? If not, you may want to have someone who has help you. Search for all entries of "Ascential", those are the ones that are your delete candidates in the registry.

Thanks Chulet for the reply.

I could see only one entry REG_SZ in path
C:\Program Files\Ascential\Datastage 7.5.1\vmdsrpos.dll.

Is this one one want to clear off and after or before uninstall?

Thanks

First uninstall the client and then remove everything with "Ascential" in it. Make sure you tell it to 'Look at' Keys, Values and Data for that string.

Thanks Chulett for your help.It worked out.

Can we clear all acential registory entries at a time?It is quite hectic
to search and delete hundreds of entries.

Thanks once again.

There probably is some way to script it, but I'm not familiar with how exactly to accomplish that.
