Enterprise Guide gives Metadata Error after clicking on Set Active in profiles window

vaishnavpranam — Wed, 25 Jul 2018 06:16:15 GMT

Hello Everyone,

I am getting an metadata related error when i click on Set Active in profile window from Enterprise Guide.

I am using SAS 9.4 M3 and EG 7.13 64 bit on a windows 10 machine.

The same is working fine for other user on windows 7.

I am connected on LAN.

I did telnet to the Metadata server on 8561 and it was successful.

I performed the Integration Technology test which was also successful.

Select 'Start > Programs > SAS > Utilities > Integration Technologies Configuration'

- Test SAS Servers > Next

- Enter a SAS server definition manually > Next

- SAS Metadata Server > Select 'IOM BRIDGE' connection

- Enter the Fully qualified Server Name - Port (the default port # is 8561)

- User's ID and PW

- Test Connection - Successful.

Running out of option now on this and seeking some help from the community.

Would appreciate if someone could suggest what could be causing this ?

I am posting the detailed error message below -

Error pop up -

An unexpected error has occurred while accessing Metadata.

unexpected metadata found while processing query.

Opening a track with tech support is recommended. Do you have other clients at hand, like iMap-Studio or Management Console, to test whether this is a problem in metadata or with the connection?

No, I do not have any other client.

Hello,

indeed, a ticket with SAS Technical Support seems to be fit for this kind of question.

Is your installation a local one, or is it virtualized with Citrix, AppV, ThinApp or similar?

In case it is local:

- you maybe can get additional information by checking the Windows Event logs

- and perhaps is a COM component not registered properly on EG. I recommend to run EGuide.exe /register.

I have users beginning to experience this exact issue.

They all are using air cards for internet access and connected to our company's VPN, which is overloaded and slow. When I have the users switch from using the air card for internet access to their home Wi-Fi, they connect fine and do not receive errors.
