DSXchange

Hi DS Lords,

I have freshly installed DS EE on Win XP machine. The machine has Visual Studio 2005 and Platform SDK installed on it. While compiling jobs which have transformer I am getting the following error. I have serached through all the topics related to this error and tried all the solutions. No luck !

I have the environment variables in Windows system pointing to correct LIB and INCLUDE path. The error I am getting is..

Output from transformer compilation follows:

And also the compiler and linker options in DS Administrator are as below.



APT_COMPILEOPT : -W/TP -W/EHa -DAPT_USE_ANSI_IOSTREAMS -c
APT_COMILER : C:\Program Files\MKS Toolkit\etc\
APT_LINKER : C:\Program Files\MKS Toolkit\etc\
APT_LINKOPT : -W/TP -W/dll -W/base:0x50000000


I hope I have all the prerequisites installed correctely on the Machine.
Could someone show some light on this.

I got rid of this warning by adding a user defined PWD variable with value .(Dot) which was mentioned in one of the topics.

##W TFPA 000012 20:36:27(000) <main_program> Warning: the PWD environment variable is not defined. Remote process startup may be unsuccessful as a result.If your ORCHESTRATE job does not start up correctly, please set your PWD variable to a value that will work on all nodes of your system.



The rest of the error stays

Hmmm...

Why was that Craig ?



Any solutions for this ..

Seemed pretty obvious to me. Your compiler is complaining about the "-W/EHa" option you are using so you'd need to "fix" that. I don't use VS so no clue what it means and don't know if you should remove it or what.

Hi,

I successfully resolved the issue.
Uninstalled Visual C++ 2003 Toolkit, Platform Development SDK, MKS Toolkit, and Datastage engine.

Restarted the machine and Installed these in order.

1.Visual C++ 2003 Toolkit. And then set the environment variables for these.
2.Platform SDK for XP. Set environment variables for this also.
3.Install the Datastage Server.

And this fixed the problem and transformer is getting compiled successdully.
