ERROR: Image SASSAP found but not loadable.

Hi!

I am trying to extract SAP Metadata using SAS Management Console but I am encountering the errors below.

I already added the RFC libraries on the system path and I even included the directory of the library path on the Path environment variables.

LIBNAME saplib SASIOSR3 sysnr=00 ashost="10.88.192.147" language=EN Client=520 trace=0 BatchMode=1
2 ! destgroup="SAS1" USER="SAS-TEST-SERVER\sasdemo" PASSWORD=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX ;
ERROR: Image SASSAP found but not loadable.
ERROR: Operating system error 126 occurred.
ERROR: Error in the LIBNAME statement.

Seeking for your help.

Thank you!

Hi jei,

Is this Windows or UNIX ?

Does the user executing the SAS job have read access to the RFC libraries on OS level ?

Have the instructions in this doc been followed ?

Hi @nhvdwalt,

This is Windows Server 2012 R2.

Yes, the user has read access to the RFC libraries.

Can you open Base SAS on the server and run the libname there ? By cutting down the layers you might get a better idea of the error.

...and the version of SAS is compatible with SAP and the RFC libraries ?

Re: ERROR: Image SASSAP found but not loadable.

jei — Fri, 30 Jun 2017 05:39:16 GMT

Yes. The instructions was carefully followed

I tried to run the libname statement on Base SAS but I got the same error.

How will I know if the version of SAS is compatible with SAP and the RFC libraries?

Did you see https://communities.sas.com/t5/Administration-and-Deployment/Unable-to-connect-SAP-RFC-from-SAS/td-p/287178?

And https://communities.bentley.com/products/programming/microstation_programming/f/19569/t/74620 might give some hints how to find dependencides further down the dll chain.

Hi Jei,

Enter the hostname instead of IP address in "ashost" parameter. And what is the authentication domain?

LIBNAME SAPLib SASIOSR3 sysnr=XX ashost=Enter host name trace=0 BatchMode=1 Client=900 language=EN AUTHDOMAIN="????" ;

Re: ERROR: Image SASSAP found but not loadable.

jei — Fri, 30 Jun 2017 06:01:50 GMT

Hi @sandykota,

Should I also indicate the SAP Administrator credentials in the created Authentication Domain under the User Management in SAS Management Console?

For SAS compatibility to SAP, see the below doc:

http://support.sas.com/documentation/installcenter/en/ikfdtnwx6sr/66390/PDF/default/sreq.pdf

It doesn't seem like R3 is supported under 9.4 M4

I recall something like R3 is old and support would drop at some point.....but don't quote me.

nhvdwalt — Fri, 30 Jun 2017 06:06:23 GMT

Are you connecting to SAP R3 ?

Re: ERROR: Image SASSAP found but not loadable.

jei — Fri, 30 Jun 2017 06:10:30 GMT

Hi @nhvdwalt,

I cannot see SAS/ACCESS Interface to R/3 on the proved document. also, I am using Data surveyor for SAP

Re: ERROR: Image SASSAP found but not loadable.

nhvdwalt — Fri, 30 Jun 2017 06:11:02 GMT

What version of SAS and M are you running ?

Re: ERROR: Image SASSAP found but not loadable.

jei — Fri, 30 Jun 2017 06:11:41 GMT

Yes. I am connecting to SAP R/3

Re: ERROR: Image SASSAP found but not loadable.

jei — Fri, 30 Jun 2017 06:12:44 GMT

My SAS Current version: 9.04.01M4P110916

Re: ERROR: Image SASSAP found but not loadable.

nhvdwalt — Fri, 30 Jun 2017 06:31:16 GMT

Ok, so you are on SAS 9.4 M4.

From what I can see, nor Data Surveyor nor R3 is supported under M4, last support was under M3.

The user guide for M3 had all in the info for working with R3, but I cannot find documentation for M4 -> R3

Maybe just log a Track and make sure.....

Not sure about the cause of your error, but if the combination is not supported, I wouldn't even go further.

Do you perhaps have an older version of SAS available to test ?
