Have you checked the log? Are there any unusual notes?

Hi and welcome to the SAS community 🙂

What does your log say?

The solution seems to be already in the log. Is the problem solved by executing the options-statement?

Excuse me ... I'm starting... what is "the options-statement"?

You are not showing us the whole log.

NOTE: Remote submit to SERV complete.

is from an endrsubmit statement, and

NOTE: Attachments for -2 reestablished for new parent.
NOTE: Attachments for -4 reestablished for new parent.
NOTE: Multiple messages generated. See LOG window.
NOTE: Export Cancelled.

usually happen in a Excel/Access export context.

If you issue the proc freq in a remote (SAS/CONNECT) environment, your local environment won't be able to pick up the HTML output file (sashtml.htm).

OPTIONS FORMCHAR="|----|+|---+=|-/\<>*";

If you're such a new beginner, you absolutely should work through the free Programming 1 e-learning course, so you get a grasp of the essential basics. Before you engage in more sophisticated programming eg with proc freq.
