DRS Plugin Not Responding

Within the designer, I am able to open all of the available plugins except the DRS plugin. When I attempt to open it the application freezes. This is the first occurance of this and I have been using the application on the same machine for 6-8 months. I have rebooted several times and I have also uninstalled and reinstalled the client applications. Has anyone experienced this? Any suggestions

Hello itconsulting,

my first question is to ask whether or not you have DRS installed - I know a program should never hang but at least it would go a bit towards explaining your problem.

Does the Designer actually hang (meaning "not responding" status in windows) or does it just not return anything.

Did you try in a different client PC?

In the task manager, it is in the "Running" status, but when l click on the work area I get no response.

I have tried it on several other PCs and it works fine.

In that case, you need to verify whether your PC has been upgraded with any other software that may impact DRS. Is your PC a Win XP 2?

It is XP SP2. This is very odd because I can open and interact with all other DataBase stage types (Oracle, Redbrick, Informix, DB2...). However when I open the DRS, the designer freezes.

Try getting the latest patch for DRS from Ascential, but some minor bugs are still there like TimeStamp issues.

Where is the patch for this?
