Have you seen the documentation/webpages on using sas analytics pro and docker:

Hi ,
Thanks for your reply.

I was provided with sasviya image by my organization which was given by the sas vendor itself.

Now i tried to call one sample dataset.sas file from dockerfile. but i am not sure if that is the correct way.

I have attached it in the attachment.

when i build my dockerfile it gets build and when i try to run the image using docker run -d -p 8003:8003 dockerimagename

i dont get any output.

I think that is not the way to interact with the sas provided dockerimage.
It should be more like what is explained in the deployment documentation: https://documentation.sas.com/doc/en/anprocdc/v_003/dplyviya0ctr/p0ot22u2rapcsfn1outngvut0f8m.htm#n1xesa8pkharabn1ew6ept00p6am
In step4 is explained how you can initiate the docker image and enter SAS Studio.
Docker houses the SAS server. SAS Studio is the browser-based GUI you use to interact with the SAS Server. Did you get any documentation from your organization on how to use the image?

If you do have documentation, can you share that? On what hardware and os are you using docker? Do you know what SAS product/solution the docker image contains?
