ODBC Fetch Error

pervamatt — Thu, 30 Mar 2017 20:57:06 GMT

Hello,

First post... I am a new SAS user, and am trying to connect using ODBC...I can use a LIBNAME statement to connect via ODBC, and I can see the data tables, view the records, etc., however, when I use a DATA statement to pull the data in, it will read all of the data in, and then throw this error:

ERROR: CLI cursor extended fetch error: [IBM][System i Access ODBC Driver][DB2 for i5/OS]SQL0501
- Cursor SQL_CUR0ABB58E0 not open.

Any idea what I am perhaps doing wrong or have configured incorrectly? Thank you.

Are you accessing a table or a view?

Can the view successfully execute on the server side?

I believe it's a table...? I have accessed it via IBM ShowCase Query many times in the past, but I receive that error when trying to get it via SAS. As an example the code I am using after the LIBNAME statement is this:

DATA TEST;
SET PROD.IDCS;
RUN;

And SAS will read all the records, then throw that error.

Here is the code I try to execute (password replaced)

LIBNAME PROD ODBC USER = 'mperva' PASSWORD = 'XXXXXXX' DATAsrc='Production' SCHEMA = 'OLYDBF';

DATA TEST;
SET PROD.IDCS;
RUN;
