Error Creating ODS HTML Output in SAS Studio

ksingh67 — Mon, 22 Aug 2022 00:20:35 GMT

Hi Group, I've recently started getting the following error when outputting to HTML.

ERROR: Insufficient authorization to access /pbr/biconfig/940/Lev1/SASApp/ttest.htm.

ERROR: No body file. HTML output will not be created.

Here's the SAS code:

title 'Comparing Group Means';

data Scores;
   input Gender $ Score @@;
   datalines;
f 75  f 76  f 80  f 77  f 80  f 77  f 73
m 82  m 80  m 85  m 85  m 78  m 87  m 82
;

ods html body='ttest.htm' style=HTMLBlue;

proc ttest;
   class Gender;
   var Score;
run;

ods html close;

Try this to see if it will redirect the file to your own home directory:

title 'Comparing Group Means';

data Scores;
   input Gender $ Score @@;
   datalines;
f 75  f 76  f 80  f 77  f 80  f 77  f 73
m 82  m 80  m 85  m 85  m 78  m 87  m 82
;

ods html body='~/ttest.htm' style=HTMLBlue;

proc ttest;
   class Gender;
   var Score;
run;

ods html close;

You need to specify a full path, the default path for the file isn't writeable.

Including a full path in the body portion gets around this.

*Try this code;

title 'Comparing Group Means';

data Scores;
input Gender $ Score @@;
datalines;
f 75 f 76 f 80 f 77 f 80 f 77 f 73
m 82 m 80 m 85 m 85 m 78 m 87 m 82
;

ods html path="~/" file="ttest.htm" style=HTMLBlue;

proc ttest;
class Gender;
var Score;
run;

ods html close;
