Designer Crashes when working with Sequencers

poorna_76 · Post by **poorna_76** » Wed Nov 02, 2005 1:40 pm

We are facing Designer crashes , lot of times, when working with Sequencers in 7.5.1A.

Has anyone facing this kind of issue?

We opened case with IBM and response was:
"there must be some kind of conflict with or perhaps something happened to your client. Have you tried uninstalling/installing the client again? "

We reinstalled DataStage Client on that machine, but that didnot solve
the purpose.

Thanks in Advance.

When you uninstalled the clients, did you check that it had been removed from the Registry?

No we didn't do that , Ray.
Should we be doing that every time we uninstall DataStage on any machine?

Thanks in Advance.

It's always a good plan to check, and not just for DataStage software.

There is a patch for this from IBM.

Hi Duke,

Can you please clarify me which patch it is exactly.

I don't see such patch on IBM website.

Only patch i see related to this is "dsclient_xpsp2"(atl.dll,DataStageSwitcher.dll,DSDesign.exe.local,setup,log,ecase60128-readme) , which we already installed.

Are you talking about some other patch?
If yes, can you please send me the name of the patch.

Thanks in Advance

Is this Anil? If so then call Ron. He got it first from ASCL. There is a dll they sent which goes into the DataStage client folder.

Yeah Designer 751A crashes a lot with Sequencers on my machine too. I save soon, save often and hope for the best. What helped a lot in my case was deactivating the "Show stage validation errors" option.

Call support at IBM and get the patch.

Can I ask whether you connect with the Omit box checked, or supply a user id and password? If you do use Omit, try providing an explicit password. In many ways connection via LAN Manager rather than TCP/IP (which is what Omit does) is flaky.

Hi Ray,

We never connected by checking Omit box.

We always supply UserName & Password.

Thanks
