EG Error -Red Lines

barishiz — Tue, 16 Aug 2011 11:43:38 GMT

While working on a project flow, I've received the following EG error which drew red lines around tables.

Anyone knows the possible cause of this error?

I've not seen it before. However, I would guess that you could find an error message in Quiery1_for_TERMINAT... which is where it appears to have been when it croaked.

It's a limitation in EG 4.1. Basically, you probably have a very complex project/process flow and it represents lots of things to draw on the screen, and the process runs out of resources to do so.

It's much better in EG 4.2 and 4.3. If you must stay with EG 4.1, you can avoid the issue by creating a series of smaller projects instead of one very huge project. Or, you might be able to use a large project for a while, but occasionally save your work, restart EG and reload the project.

Dear Chris,

The screen shot that you attached to the first message is from EG 4.1. Are you seeing the exact same error in a 4.2 installation as well?

Perhaps it's best resolved by contacting SAS Technical Support.

Hi Chris,

I too have definitely seen this phenomenon in EG 4.3 on a handful of occasions. To be honest, I cant say I can see a consistent reason for it. I usually just close and reopen.

Regards,

Nick
