SAS license renewal getting failed

pbad — Thu, 15 Feb 2018 04:49:17 GMT

Dear all,

We are trying to update the SAS 9.4 license at z/os mainframe. However following error is coming:-

Anyone has any solution ? Even though we have update access to the original SASHELP library.

ERROR: WRITE ACCESS TO MEMBER SASHELP.CORE.CATALOG IS DENIED.
ERROR: THE SITE VALIDATION DATA CANNOT BE UPDATED. THIS IS MOST LIKELY DUE TO TH
       WRITE MODE, AND/OR THAT THE SETINIT OPTION HAS NOT BEEN SPECIFIED WHEN US
ERROR: DIFFICULTY READING THE SITE VALIDATION DATA.
NOTE: THE SAS SYSTEM STOPPED PROCESSING THIS STEP BECAUSE OF ERRORS.

Thanks,

Pratik


ERROR: SAS ENDED DUE TO ERRORS.
       YOU SPECIFIED: OPTIONS ERRORABEND;.

Hello @pbad,

have you already come across this SAS note? http://support.sas.com/kb/14/860.html

I would say that is dependant on your SASHELP options as described by the note.

Thank you JuanS for your reply.

This problem was solved. Apprantly we found that this was the access issues. SASHELP file had no wright / update access.

Thanks.
