I am running a sequence, it has 10 calling job activity, after completing the fourth or fifth job I am getting this error.

Controller problem: Error calling DSRunJob(FORM_SEQ1000), code=-14

One possibility is that your system is overloaded and the last one takes so long to initiate thatis causes a timeout. If you monitor your system load using your favorite monitoring tool (such as vmstat) while this sequence runs does the system begin to page or swap and what is the CPU load?

That's pretty much the possibility, which a search for "Timed out while waiting for an event" would quickly reveal.

No, you can also get this if one of the databases to which you're connected is in a "not ready" state.

No, you can also get this if one of the databases to which you're connected is in a "not ready" state, or takes too long to execute your "query from hell".

Interesting... haven't seen that, the event it typically times out waiting for from what I've seen is for the job to start.

Thank you very much for responsing immediately, Actually there was around 30 jobs were lock, due to that I was getting sequence aborted, I unlock all the jobs then I re-run the sequence then I runs perfectly.
