SAS EG Installation | Sid file does not mach order number

MariaD — Mon, 01 Jul 2019 13:45:12 GMT

Hi folks,

Recently we change our order number. Now, we're trying to install SAS EG on a customer machine (to connect with our SAS Server, we don't have SAS locally installed) but the following error appear:

"The SID file you selected is not intended for the order you are installed"

I know this error is because we're using the same deploy (the one for the other order) but considering this is a SAS EG installation only, there is any way to request to no validate SID file?

Regards.

If you only need Enterprise Guide, use the standalone installer.

@Kurt_Bremser Thanks but even if I request only clients (SAS EG), the installation process still request SID files and the error is the same.

@Kurt_Bremser , I know that is possible to specify some parameters (options) in deployment command line like "-noreboot" or "-response". Do you know if exist any parameters to request to no check SID or order number? Something like "skipsidcheck" or "skipsidcheck"

Regards,

That's because you are using the deployment wizard from the SAS depot, and not the standalone installer. The standalone installer is found in a subdirectory of the depot called "standalone installers" or similar.

PS the relevant subdirectory is

standalone_installs/SAS_Enterprise_Guide_Independent_Installer/7_15

in your SAS depot. The standalone installer is

SASEnterpriseGuide71_x86_x64.exe
