Output in log instead of output file

Hello,

did you know why the output data is written in the SAS log instead of the specified output file (TIC5109F). Here's my code.

// In my program

DATA BB

FILE TIC5109F;

FORMAT NBR_RECORDS_ECRITS 12.

NBR_RECORDS_DETRUITS 12.;

SET LISTE_MESSAGES END=EOF;

RETAIN NBR_RECORDS_ECRITS 0 NBR_RECORDS_DETRUITS 0;

PUT @001 RECORD;

NBR_RECORDS_ECRITS = NBR_RECORDS_ECRITS + 1;

IF EOF THEN

DO;

CALL SYMPUT("NBR_RECORDS_ECRITS",PUT(NBR_RECORDS_ECRITS,12.));

END;

RUN;

//The portion of the JCL code related

//TIC5109F DD DSN=BTS.MINIV42.TIC5109F.SELECT,DISP=(,CATLG),

// UNIT=DISK,SPACE=(TRK,(90,30),RLSE),

// DCB=(RECFM=FB,LRECL=180,BLKSIZE=27000)

Is it because my JCL parameters are not good?

Thanks

You are missing a semicolon in the DATA BB statement, so FILE and TIC5109F are taken as SAS datasets. That should show in the log.
