Problems importing jobs

[JeroenDmt]

When I try to import a job in a new project, I get an error message:

Code: Select all

Line 413: The folder \Jobs\MyJobs does not exist..
Object=ROOT.
Class=CJobDefn.

The job cannot be imported because the MyJobs folder (the folder where the original job comes from) does not exist.

The job is exported from another project on the same server.


After I try to import a job and get this error message, when I manually try to create a new folder under the Jobs folder, I get another error message

Code: Select all

Unable to create new folder.
The Folder 'Jobs' is locked by user 'xmeta'
(SessionID 'xmeta-1')

The server is newly setup, so I assume it's a problem in the installation or setup or something like that.

Does anyone know how to fix this? (other than creating all necessary folders by hand of course )

(when I do manually create the folder before the import, the import will go successfully. So the problem is in the import creating new folders).

Are you able to re-start the XMETA database (the common Repository)? Non-existent categories should be created as part of importing.

Ray, In searching for a solution to my import troubles I found your post. I amreceiving the following error when attempting to import MDMQS.dsx as part of the installation process:

Code: Select all

Line 82935: The folder \MDMQS\Table Definitions does not exist..
Object=Data Set\MDMQS\QS_Match_Columns.
Class=CMetaTable.

I'm trying to contact our DBA to get the DB restarted as you suggest. I expect this has something to do with the repository but if not, I do not know how to diagnose and resolve from here. Please help.

I found the solution elsewhere on DSXchange:

Thought it might help others to place the link here

Good, thanks for that. You did it before I could get back to you.
