To pas path as a parameter from the parameter file

[datastagedw]

Hi All,

I want to pass some directory paths as parameters to the sequencer job. This runs fine when i run the job manually from dataStage. However when i run the job from the script (which takes parameter file as a parameteri., ./ scriptname paramfilename), it says DSJE_BADParm and points to error in $LD_Library_Path. The same script works fine for other jobs wherein directory path is not passed as parameter. Do we need to escape anything when we pass the path as a parameter from the script

Please help

Thanks wurlod. My requirement is to pass a file path as parameter. We are running the jobs from the script in the following syntax:

opt/isproj/Abc/Scripts/ sh script1.sh parameterfile.parm

Here parameterfile.parm is the parameter file containing all the job parameters of the said sequencer. One of the parameter is actually assigned to a directory path e.g pInputFilepath=/opt/isproj/Abc/Input/

When i run the above script with the parameterfile.parm it says DSJE_BADPARM. It says error getting information from $LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

I am able to run other jobs whose parameter file does not have any parameters assigned to a directory path. So i am thinking this is the reason for the above error. Am i not passing the parameters properly when i actually call from the parameter file. Because I am able to run the same job from designer.

Please help

I suspect you're not stripping off the line terminator after reading from the parameter file. This will have been converted to a field mark (@FM). Search DSXchange for techniques.
