Assumng that your job is just a simple source...copy...transformer...xmlOutput...Sequential, then start looking at other things...compare the properties in your xmlOutput in "this" job to the jobs where it works.... How is this one different from any of your others?

Try different sources..... try a RowGenerator...maybe it's something in your data....

I did change source to a seq file it failed.But i tried the same with server job with seqfile-->xfrm--->xml O/p but getting the error "Abnormal termination of stage XMLTestSer..XML_Output_2 detected"0

I fixed the issue it was we are getting a new column and putting that into the XML so xml o/p stage did not have a description for that, so i gave that as head and tried running, it is going through but in 7.x it is going thro with out the desc specified

Erine,

any suggestions on that.

Thanks,

Do you want that column on your XML? If so, it needs xpath on the input link. If not, I would delete it from the link.

Why did it work before? Chalk it up to "code tightening." I am surprised it didn't get an error.

Good debugging work!

Also Ernie,

what is desc saying <none>Searchable? N Means.

That has that in 7.1 and 8.1 i deletedit works.But it did not work with none stuff in 8.1.what is that none is all about.

The "<none>" means that whoever imported/created the table definition or column definition was lazy and did not provide a description.

"Searchable? N" means either that the table does not have an index on this column or that the index information was not imported.

Exacly...it's a leftover from/during the metadata import process....and since <non> "happens" to look like xml, it makes sense that it had a problem. The current xml pack "overloads" the description as a place to carry xpath.

Unfortunately it wasn't caught in 7.x.

Thanks Ernie,Ray and Criag for all your inputs.It was good fun in debugging, this made me to learn a lot on XML stuff.
