GENMOD SLICE ERROR: Unable to load extension: (tkitcp)

When running GENMOD with the SLICE statement I get the following error. I'm not sure why SAS is trying to make any connections. I'm wondering if the results are correct.

NOTE: SAS (r) Proprietary Software 9.3 (TS1M0)

NOTE: This session is executing on the X64_ES08R2 platform.

2349 PROC GENMOD DATA=formodel;

NOTE: The most likely cause of the previous error is software firewall settings

that are too restrictive.

That is a SAS vs OS problem, not a GENMOD problem. My best advice is to open a ticket with Tech Support. At the bottom of the page, in teeny-tiny print is a link to contact them.

But why is it opening a connection? Perhaps SLICE is not fully implemented in my version and SAS is trying to update.

I don't know your set-up. With interactive PC or batch PC mode, I have never seen this before. Are you running EG on a server, and getting slammed by a firewall? What version of SAS do you have installed? This is the kind of thing that Tech Support, who have seen almost everything, is going to be much better at than us statisticians who hang out here all the time.

I'm running PC SAS interactive on a server via remote desktop, so the firewall shouldn't be an issue. The version is 9.3 (TS1M0). All I care about is if the results in the output are reliable. Thanks for your help. I did submit a tech support form. Thanks for your help.

For that version and install, SLICE is fully functional. It's a connection problem of some sort.
