@Mian - There appears to be an incorrect line in your sasv9.cfg file, in particular the definition of SASUSER. Here are the relevant install log messages:

2020-10-13 16:47:39    EditSASConfigTask - SASConfigEditor::execute() - working on file at C:\Program Files\SASHome\SASFoundation\9.4\nls\en\sasv9.cfg
2020-10-13 16:47:39    InstallationTask - sasv9.cfg is to be Changed(Preparing to update SAS config file.)
2020-10-13 16:47:39    ConfigParser - The line 'SASUSER        'C:\temp\My SAS Files\9.2\'' in C:\Program Files\SASHome\SASFoundation\9.4\nls\en\sasv9.cfg cannot be parsed.
2020-10-13 16:47:39    ConfigParser - Try placing the line in the top section of the config file above the 'DO NOT EDIT BELOW THIS LINE - INSTALL Application edits below this line'.
2020-10-13 16:47:39    Controller - An error occurred during processing:  
2020-10-13 16:47:39    Controller - INVALID_CHARACTER_ERR: An invalid or illegal XML character is specified. 
2020-10-13 16:47:39    Controller - org.w3c.dom.DOMException: INVALID_CHARACTER_ERR: An invalid or illegal XML character is specified.

Can you post your sasv9.cfg file please? Or you could try correcting the SASUSER line yourself. Make sure this line is just plain text and does not include any hidden characters like tabs.

@Mian - Not sure why they refer to SAS 9.2. You might want to check if that folder exists. Also retype the whole SASUSER line to ensure there are no hidden characters.

-SASUSER 'C:\temp\My SAS Files\9.2\'
-SET MYSASFILES 'C:\temp\My SAS Files\9.2\' /* *** */

Try this: -SASUSER 'C:\temp\My SAS Files\9.2\'
