SAS EG Library Error

SonalNeema — Wed, 14 Jun 2023 10:26:28 GMT

Hi Experts,

We have below set up done to fetech the data in SAS library:

.dat File are placed on network drive. And we are creating library using that.

Users than map the network drive to their local laptop and then access the library.

All of the users can access the library. While one of the users is getting below error:

Unable to load the Library's items.

The requested operation could not be performed by the SAS server.

Server response: Libref H_ABC_Q is not assigned.

Can anyone guide on what can be the issue?

I have verified below settings for both the users, and they are same:

1. Similar way they have mapped the network drive.

2. User can access the network drive.

3. Both the users have similar access.

Any suggestion on what the issue can be?

Have both users run the following and compare the SAS Logs

 Libref H_ABC_Q list ;

They will get something like this:

277  libname H_ABC_Q list ;
NOTE: Libref=   H_ABC_Q
      Scope=    Kernel
      Engine=   V9
      Access=   TEMP
      Physical Name= <path>
      Filename= <path>
      Owner Name= <user>
      File Size=              4KB
      File Size (bytes)= 4096

Based on the error message "Libref H_ABC_Q is not assigned." (I'm assuming that is what the user sees in their SAS log), it would appear that the user has not set up a SAS library reference to the folder.
