There might be several reasons for this.

First check out whether the Informatica service is running or not. Sometimes the server address will change everytime.so it is suggestable to resolve the server (server-server configuration) and then start the service.

Also check out the repository server configuration... 

hope this will be useful..

Try to folow the below mentioned steps ...

==>Configure the Informatica Server Set-Up in Start-->Programs-->Informatica7.1-->Informatica server set-up.

==>Open the the workflow manager go to workflow tab and then assign server option.

Put the server name that you have given in server set-up.

===>Then go to control panel-->services and start the "informatica server" service.

Then do the things.. Most probably will work great.

In that case you may query the fields from below Informatica repository tables and populate into your target tables.

REP_WFLOW_RUN (WORKFLOW_NAME, RUN_ERR_MSG, RUN_STATUS_CODE)

REP_TASK_INST_RUN(INSTANCE_NAME, RUN_ERR_MSG, RUN_STATUS_CODE NUMBER)

Status code of the task.

1 = Suceeded
2 = Disabled
3 = Failed
4 = Stopped
5 = Aborted
6 = Running
7 = Suspending
8 = Suspended
9 = Stopping
10 = Aborting
11 = Waiting
12 = Scheduled
13 = Unscheduled
14 = Unknown
15 = Terminated
