Hi Dhayanadh.

First let me confirm if you are using a flat file with fixed field lengths. if that is the case, then you need to specify the length of each field in the content conversion parameters.. for example

record.fixedFieldLengths : 10,14,12

where in 10 is the length for the first, 14 for second and 12 for the third one.

in the other case if, the field lengths are not fixed, then we need to mention the field separator in the conversion parameters.

Just check if you have provided that....

Browse these links....these could be provide you with an idea about content conversion...

>>>

the error is self descriptive.

You need to mention either fieldFixedLengths or fieldSeparator for the particular records in the FCC.

make sure you have used any of these. In case you have already used and still the error is coming check for spaces before or after the entry cos that even a single space can also create the same error.

hi

Can you please mention which property you are using for Content Conversion ? Is it fieldSeparator or fieldFixedLength ?
