Hi,

Can anybody explain me how to extract the XML files into sequential files in datastage 8 parallel.
i have designed the job like this.
external source stage->XML input stage---->sequential file stage.
I am getting the fatal error like this.
"External_Source_27: Unable to initialize the importer"
Please let me know what are the properties we need to set in external source stage and xml input stage.

regards,
vasu.

What exactly is in your External Source stage? Check Ernie's blog post on the subject if you haven't already:

You have the MKS Toolkit installed, so UNIX commands should work for you... including "ls". Or some form of "dir" should as well, probably with the /b for "bare listing" option.
