Procedure IML not found

cisman — Mon, 24 Nov 2014 10:01:46 GMT

I just installed SAS 9.4 (full version) and updated the license. But when I run proc IML i get the error message:

Procedure IML not found. When I run PROC SETINIT, I see the license is valid. What could be the problem?

You say you updated the license, this may indicate that you installed SAS with a license that does not include SAS/IML, so you may miss the actual SW, not the license. Run the navigator again and install the SAS/IML module manually.

Thanks. I re-installed the SAS/IML module manually and that fixed the issue.

I too face the exact issue as OP with 'procedure IML not found' but unfortunately I cannot resolve my issue with your answer. Like OP, I do see IML in the proc setint and I understand it may not be installed but a license is available. I have SAS 9.4 installed on a Windows 10 64-bit machine.

OP resolved by "manually" re-installing the module. You mention "running" the navigator. Can you specifically instruct how to do either of these options? I searched all over the SASHOME and SASFoundation directories and cannot find such a navigator and no tutorial online provides such directions. Simply, for me and others to come, how can I install the IML procedure? Thanks.

I'm facing exactly the same problem!

Did you solve it?

Thanks

While this thread did not help me, I opened a ticket with SAS Support. Ultimately, my issue was the SAS/IML component was not fully installed in my SAS 9.4 system installation as it is an addiitonal component not usually selected by default.

I had to open Deployment Manager to install the component. Carefully walk through the wizard as I believe a second window opens to select additional components of which include "SAS/IML" (which is separate from "SAS/IML Studio"). I recommended that the interface here could be better integrated or directed.

Once all that was successfully completed, I was able to use the proc iml command.

Same problem, stumbled onto this post for solution, very helpful.

My advice is in addition to proc setinit always run proc product_status, as follows:

proc product_status; run;

Proc setinit returns what you are licensed for, while proc product_status returns what is actually installed.
