I have a simple DS job and I am trying to run it from the command line using DS job as below but it is not running. Both client and server are installed on the same machine on which I am trying to run. Please advise.
Command used:
Code: Select all
D:\IBM\InformationServer\Server\DSEngine\bin>dsjob -run -jobstatus project_test copy_job
It is not showing any error/message

Are the project name and job name correctly spelled and, importantly, cased? (Project names and job names are case sensitive.)
Have you sourced the dsenv script before running dsjob command?

Ray, isn't the dsenv script only on a UNIX server?
Have you tried passing in credentials on the command line - domain, user, password - to see if that changes the behavior?

I think the issue is far simpler.
the DSJOB command SHOULD have given you an error if something wasn't right in terms of a bad parm.
The primary reason where it would NOT spit out an error message is if you never called it to begin with. So perhaps someone put a dummy dsjob command in your PATH before your tool path and you are calling a fake program that would not echo anything back to you.
