This is an error that can drive you insane since it is not as explenatory as it should be and you can loose many hours tracing the cause of it or (like in my case) even in reinstalling the server.
Cause:
Its merely an issue in host name resolving. Informatica tries to get the hostname and the substring it in order to ommit the domain name. If it fails to do so returns an ambiguous error that is probably due to some kind of substring failure.
Thus if you encounter this kind of behavior change the hosts file in order to include the real network IP of the informatica Host machine
Resolution
The hosts file includes only one line that referenced the hosts's network IP:
nnn.nnn.nn.n Full_hostname (domain)
The loopback interface entry is missing, thus you must add the following entry:
127.0.0.1 Hostname (Name Only)
Powercenter without any hotfix is working even without the loopback entry. So I guess that the problem is some kind of substring command that was failing due to empty string at Hostname resolving.
