SAS EG freezes when close dataset from GoogleBigQuery Library

HULK — Wed, 22 Jan 2020 13:21:37 GMT

Hi,

There is a library that, through odbc.ini and the corresponding Simba driver looks at the GoogleBigQuery cloud database.

The library is assigned in the SAS EG without errors - all tables are visible and available through PROC SQL.

If you open dataset through the explorer

after a while it will open. But when you close the table, SAS EG freezes and continues to hang in this state do not respond to actions by the user:

It remains only to kill the SAS EG process.

Has anyone encountered such application behavior?

I think you should go straight to SAS Tech Support with this one because the behavior is absolutely not expected.

They will want to know if control eventually returns to EG.

Best wishes,

Jeff
