But it is throwing me run time error.</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P>When I had ran it first on a different dataset with 4m population and 1.22% event rate, it ran smooth. I had even much larger set of input variables.</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P>What could be the possible reason? &nbsp;I do not see anything in log.</P> Mon, 14 Mar 2016 09:26:49 GMT https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Data-Science/Why-decision-tree-is-throwing-run-time-error/m-p/256501#M3793 munitech4u 2016-03-14T09:26:49Z https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Data-Science/Why-decision-tree-is-throwing-run-time-error/m-p/256510#M3794 Well, I saw the log, one of the input variable has more than 32000 categories.
