Consolidate the xsd files into a zip file and import the zip file as a "schema bundle". This should fix the issue assuming your xsd files have correct syntax.

Just use the string $PROJDEF in your parameter set for the password value. It will automatically resolve changes from the administrator client. Job recompiles are not necessary. It was also discussed here

Use the @DAY System Variable in a job sequence which gives you the current day. You can set up a nested condition check to see if the day is equal to 1 and if so then call your job as necessary.

NuTCRACKER errors in event viewer

Level Date and Time Source Event ID Task Category Error 10/16/2012 10:08:19 AM NuTCRACKER 4 16005 NuT...

User registry handles leaked

About once every couple of hours, one of our servers logs these messages in the event viewer. I do not notice any drop off in job performance with the DS jobs that are on this server, but I was wondering if anyone else on a Windows OS had experienced similar issues. Is this something that could poss...

I modified the job and changed the sequential file stage to Char(21) as suggested. This works great and rejects the record perfectly. Is it a best practice to use Char instead of Varchar in these scenarios? I also incorporated the Column Import stage off of the sequential file reject link and I am a...

Sequential File Stage -- Flat file data load

I must be overlooking something really obvious, but I ran into an issue with a flat file load job and wanted to see if my understanding of the sequential file stage is skewed. One of the systems that we receive data from sends us files that are fixed width. This particular fix width file is defined ...
