Input buffer overrun at field

Post by ashishm »

Hi,

My job gives me a lot of this warning message
SQFS_CustRecords,0: Input buffer overrun at field "LST_MAINT_DT", at offset: 982

Can anyone tell me how I can solve this. The Sequential file is reading from a file with no delimiter. It's a fixed length field file.

Looks like your metadata specifies 982 characters in a line but the file has more - maybe 983. Might it be the case that your metadata specifies UNIX-style line terminators but the file actually has DOS-style line terminators?
