SAS Univrsity save as feature not working (buggy)

twincityfang — Wed, 08 Apr 2020 21:15:24 GMT

I am working on the code of "The little SAS book". I saved the code in /folders/myfolders/chap3/abc.sas. When I have a case, I want to copy the previous abc.sas to a new abc2.sas. I tried to use the save to feature, but the system will messed up.

I also tried to use copy feature, it seems not friendly to use.

How did the system "mess up"? Please provide any error message or other description what happened.

"Save As" on the University Edition virtual machine works without problems when done to /folders/myfolders (or a subdirectory thereof).

I found out if I created more files (more than 6 files) in my folder, the save button inside the popup stopped working. Now to save the file, I use the copy and rename to save the new files in the SAS University Edition. Copy is working correctly.
