Error while working with Informatica Design SDK for creating mapping

Question

I have found the mapping sdk code samples, however without any documentation whatsoever.

Currently working with 9.0, I am looking for more info.

For one of the current issues, when I try to save the mapping to repository, (with pcconfig.properties lying in the same folder where the xml file is being generated), I am getting the following error:

Written the file..

Caught an exception in run() method

java.io.IOException: Cannot run program ""C:\Informatica\pmrep"" (in directory "C:\Informatica"): CreateProcess error=2, The system cannot find the file specified

This is my initial example.. trying to find my way through the API..

Answer 1

The path to the pmrep utility doesn't look correct. It is normally found at the path C:\Informatica\\server\bin on Windows.

Check the value of PC_CLIENT_INSTALL_PATH within pcconfig.properties is correct.
