SAS output language is inconsistent with my setting

Lulin — Sun, 04 Aug 2019 05:16:22 GMT

Hi, when I use SAS 9.4 (Unicode support) the menu is in English while the output and titles of the editor are still in Chinese. I have tried to use the deployment manager to change the locale to English, and I also checked the sasv9.cfg. But the problem is still there.

Are you sure you checked the correct configuration file?

Run

proc options option=config;
run;

and see the path. Is that the file that you checked?

Thanks! Your suggestion is very helpful.

I only checked the config file in the "SASfoudation" folder instead of the "u8" folder. After I edited the locale setting in the configuration file of the u8 folder, the problem is solved.

So, why it is of no help to use the deployment manager to change the locale of SAS Foundation?

No problem. Glad you found your answer 🙂

Actually, I am not sure. I am not very familiar with the deployment manager.

When several config files are used, the last settings take precedence over the setting in files which appear earlier in the list.
