ODS destination errors in log

RobF — Wed, 24 Dec 2014 21:04:33 GMT

After unsuccessfully attempting to run a program in SAS EG on my company's server, I'm seeing the following baffling ODS errors at the top of my log (plus the same "ERROR 180-322" errors repeated at the bottom of the log).

Any ideas what's going on here?

2 OPTIONS PAGENO=MIN;

3 %LET _CLIENTTASKLABEL='cdps01_20110908_sas_server';

There can be a lot of things having caused this.

When this code is run after some other you server process has got corrupted because of an other error.

- You are seeing at line 1 the magic string that should solve most of those.

There must be one not being solved by this recovery.

I do not see recovery from macro-code definition error or a missing ) .

When this is you first code having run to the server than:

- The SASapp server has a lot of settings/options before your code is started.

- The Eguide software is submitting a lot of sas code to the server proces

What is your situation aside of that error? Some code have run before on that (shared) server process?

Thank you for the suggestions, Jaap - I never did figure out what I did wrong.

I eventually resorted to exitting out of SAS EG and rerunning my programs, and that worked.
