How do I resolve issues with data files?

(Note: The error you encounter might differ from the examples shown here.)

Cause: Various issues can occur with data files for the Contact Verify Component, such as an incorrect path to the data files path or outdated/missing data files.

Solution: Follow these steps to ensure the configuration is correct:

Step 1: Check for Required Data Files: Ensure you have all the necessary data files for each on-premise object. The required files can be found here:
  1. Name Object
  2. Address Object
  3. GeoCoder/GeoPoint Object
  4. Phone Object
  5. Email Object
Step 2: Verify Data File Path Configuration: Confirm the Data File Path points to the correct location. By default, this path is C:\Program Files\Melissa DATA\DQT\Data.
Step 3: Update Outdated Data Files: If the data files exist and the Data File Path is configured correctly but errors persist, your data files might be outdated. Consider the following actions:
Option 1: Run the Full On-Premise SSIS Installer
  1. SSIS builds are released quarterly. You should receive emails from the sales rep with download links for the latest installer. Running this will update the data files.
  2. If you aren’t receiving these emails, please contact your Sales Rep or our Tech Support.
Option 2: Download Data Files Manually
  1. Use Melissa’s Releases page to download the latest data files using your License String. Links for each object:
