Error in Viewing the data

Post by ds_sai »

Hi,
My o.s is windows xp,datastage version is :7.5x2.
I created the simple job which take the data from sequential file and it copies to target sequential file.It was compiling well.But it was not running and was aborted.
I am getting the error when i view the data in sequential file.
>##E TFPA 000021 $APT_CONFIG_FILE was not set, and config.apt was not found in the working directory or in $APT_ORCHHOME/etc.
>##F TFCF 000009 Fatal Error: Cannot continue without a configuration file.

For this job i am passing the parameters.I went and checked in Administrator for the location of configuration file,it was set to default.apt.
In director i got the error as "main_program: File archive: Trouble creating file "/tmp/APTcs9752481310b8",main_program: Fatal Error: Null archive."
Could u please look into this issue?

Cheers,
ds

There could be 2 possibilities...

There might be something wrong on specifying apt config file..
did u specify the parameter as $PROJDEF or something else
Try to give the whole server path where your config file resides.

the "trouble Creating file" error may occur if you don't have sufficient permission on the Project..
check your Rights on the Project..you may not be able to execute it..

APT_CONFIG_FILE was not set. What could be clearer?

Bring $APT_CONFIG_FILE into your job as a job parameter, set its default value to $PROJDEF. Make sure that the pathname given for this environment variable in the Administrator client is valid.

To test, use a hard-coded pathname in the job parameter's default value.
