Migrating from Linux to AIX

[ccatania]

Recently migrated several jobs from the Linux DEV Server to the QA AIX server.

Currently some of the migrated jobs are now producing NULL values for all the output fields, regardless if the output is a file, peek or table.

Placement of a peek prior to the transform stage shows correct data values.

In addition adding a Peek to the same Transform stage also show correct data value although the main link has null for the same fields.

When the transform stage is removed and all output links recreated it works fine.

Some how the metadata link is either getting corrupted or altered in some way.

Does anyone know of any issues when migrating from one o/s to another o/s that would have an affect on the transform stage.

I'm not 100% sure but I believe the correct C compiler has been installed on the AIX server.

This problem so far has only happened on 3 of the 20+ jobs that were migrated.

Importing and compiling the job again doesn't change the results.

Any idea on this is appreciated.

This almost certainly suggests that the C++ compiler has not been correctly installed or that, if it has, it (or its environment variables) has not been correctly configured.

Do you get compile-time errors with these jobs? Does the Transformer stage have any flags set in the Build tab of stage properties?

Hey Ray,

No compilation errors are generated and there are no flags set.

The most the transformer stage has is an IF, Then , Else statement and some may in addition a convert function. With some stage variables mixed in.

Strange thing when a peek is added to the Transformer stage there is data , then after a few runs and compiles it changes back to Null value, using the same 2 record test file.
