DI-studio says library not assigned..?

kenjoswe — Sun, 01 Dec 2019 11:45:12 GMT

Hi,

In DI-studio I have a job that is supposed to send data from a SAS table to Visual Analytics (LASR).

When I run the job I get 'Libref not assigned' but in properties it is assigned.

What can be wrong?

The following is just a theory - but not hard to verify.

It could be that the library is pre-assigned but that there is a syntax error in it. I believe in such a case SAS would try to assign the library during SAS invocation but if the libname statement fails then you wouldn't see this in the SAS log nor get an error condition.

But now because the library is pre-assigned the SAS code generated by DIS won't include a libname statement - and though you get the error of an unassigned library.

What you could try: Change the library to not pre-assigned (uncheck the box). Then run your DIS job again. Is it working now? Or do you get now an error for the libname statement? - Make sure in the SAS log that you inspect the very first error thrown.

Hi,

I unchecked pre assign but it didn't help.

I didn't have this problem two weeks ago.

Could it be a issue with the Object Spawner?

@kenjoswe

So now that you've got a libname in the code: What error message do you get?

That this used to work is important information. Poses the question: What changed in the environment? ...but first share the error message please.

I don't know if an object spawner restart could help - but never hurts to try and do so if you can.

You could also try and execute your code in batch and see if the error persists.

Is it writing to LASR data pointer library or to LASR itself? Is the LASR server up and running?
