BODI-3016234: Unable to connect to the Job Server

dataservices administration
1

Hi, I’m stuck with the graveyard shift between christmas and new year and our Data Intergrator Server has gone down. IT have managed to restart it but when i try to kick of a BODI job i get the error message

“BODI-3016234: Unable to connect to the Job Server ‘xxxxxx’. Error: Connection refused: connect.”

I normally write the reports and am pretty new to BODI. I’ve looked at the services on the server and the “Data Intergrator Service” hasn’t started although the “Data Intergrator Web Server” has.

We’re running version 11.0

Any ideas are greatly appreciated.

thanks

Malcolm

First of all you should have given your configuration information. Anyway fallow these(I think you are using Windows Server) :

1 - start cmd (From Run)
2 - cd install_directory/bin
for example : cd c:\program files\businessobjects\dataintegrator11.0\bin
3 - al_jobservice -remove (execute this command)
4 - al_jobservice -install (execute this command)
5 - restart the computer

Now you will see that jobserver has started.

If Jobserver and designer are on different computers then also check these :

1 - ping server_ip (from your computer)
2 - tnsping server_ip (from your computer if you use oracle repository)
3 - ping hostname (from your computer)
4 - ping your_computer_ip (from server)
5 - ping hostname (from server)

let me know when you try
