I have a column whose datatype is DT_WSTR in source and DT_STR in target.
I tried to convert datatype in DATA CONVERSION but it failed.

I am getting error msg
"[Data Conversion [872]] Error: Data conversion failed while converting column "DXAEQI" (1802) to column "Copy of DXAEQI" (3099).
The conversion returned status value 4 and status text "Text was truncated or one or more characters had no match in the target code page.".
"

I tried different ways but unable to find a solution for this.
Data conversion is working for some values of that column, but when the value in column is of russian language i am getting error.

I kept the TruncationRowDisposition as RD_IgonreFailure. Then it is working, but data is changing from russian language to someother like "??????????????".

Please help me out
 
if you look at the data that is of the russian character set you will probably find some unicode characters Unicode which is DT_WSTR.
