Does not exist error creating output with Proc SGPie from SAS/Studio

Hi,

I'm trying to use proc sgpie within SAS/Studio (3.8 &SAS 9.04.01M6P110718). I'm sure it's probably a simple setup step I've missed to get graphics output.

Tried various examples and keep getting this same error. I'm sure it's probably a simple setup step I've missed to get graphics output.

Here's an example from https://blogs.sas.com/content/graphicallyspeaking/2018/11/26/the-sgpie-procedure/

proc format;
value $type
  'Sedan'='Sedan'
  other= 'Other';
run;

ods graphics / reset width=4in height=2.5in;
title 'Vehicle Distribution';
proc sgpie data=sashelp.cars;
    format type $type.;
    styleattrs datacolors=(gold maroon);
    pie type / startangle=270;
run;

Log output:

NOTE: ODS statements in the SAS Studio environment may disable some output features.
 71         
 72         proc format;
 73         value $type
 74           'Sedan'='Sedan'
 75           other= 'Other';
 NOTE: Format $TYPE has been output.

Any ideas ?

Can you close the SAS Studio session using signout.
Then close the browser.
And in a new browser window connect again to the server and try again?

I had no issue with your code example using SAS Studio from SAS OnDemand for Academics (welcome.oda.sas.com)

Best regards, Jos

I've tried that @JosvanderVelden but I get the same error.

Have tried the same code in a VM running SAS University Edition and it works fine there so not a straight forward code issue. Will see if the sas admin can figure it out, or contact sas support for assistance.
