Hi,

We can't start DataStage because the installation directory was changed from <dir> to <dir1>. How can I correct this?

Thanks in advance!

You will need to change the directory back to what it was when you installed, or reinstall in the new location.

I see..

That sucks because I can't change the directory name back.

Is there absolutely no other way without re-installing?

Thanks Arnd!

No, there are so many internal parts that have absolute pathnames that it would take much longer to change all paths and refrences to paths than re-installing - and you'd never be certain that some error in the future might be due to the changed path.
