Hi,
it's a very weird problem. I can't open any of the active stages from my exercise jobs any more, while passive stages open fine -- if I try to click on any active stages from my existing exercise jobs, the DS designer just freeze there, and eventually I have to kill it from the DS Manager.
I assumed that there were something wrong with the DS server, is that so?
I removed all DS related packages (including server & client) from windows, and did a reinstall, having a clean reboot after the removal, but the problem persists.
it's so weird to me. Any possible reasons (and fixes)?
thanks

FYI, having found the following Datastage FAQ entry, I gave up trying and restore my last-good os backup.
Datastage Designer hangs when editing job activity properties

The appears when running Datastage Designer under Windows XP after installing patches or the Service Pack 2 for Windows. . .
That's a very old piece of information related to the fact that installing Service Pack 2 for Windows XP broke certain things in DataStage. Seeing as how SP2 was released seven years ago, I doubt it caused your issue.
I'm sure there would have been a less drastic solution but restoring your last O/S backup was certainly an option.
