Output not created warning with Imputation with Proc MI

HeatherA — Sat, 18 Feb 2017 16:50:10 GMT

I am working on imputing data on body composition with proc mi and mianalyze. My analysis step is with proc glm to run a manova for a Hotelling's T2. I unfortunately have participants who were lost to follow up and I need to impute their data because of a small sample size. I have run the missing pattern and my imputation is for data MAR. I am imputing variables missing from the initial visit separate from the final visit.

I am running into an issue where the initial time I ran my coding the MI statement and the GLM statement ran, but I received warning statements for my ods output, and my MIANALYSE procedure did not run. In trying to research and remedy the issue the output has stopped running the GLM procedure.

My warnings are:

WARNING: Output 'invxpx' was not created. Make sure that the output object name, label, or path is spelled correctly. Also, verify that the appropriate procedure options are used to produce the requested output object. For example, verify that the NOPRINT option is not used.

WARNING: Output 'ParameterEstimates' was not created. Make sure that the output object name, label, or path is spelled correctly. Also, verify that the appropriate procedure options are used to produce the requested output object. For example, verify that the NOPRINT option is not used.

Thoughts on moving forward to get the output I need to run the MIANALYZE procedure?

You used the noprint option. It looks like the SAS log is tellingyou not to use the noprint option.
