Enable xcmd while opening the stored process via SASportal

[Mushy]

Hello,

When I open the SAS stored process via the portal:

Server/SASStoredProcess/do

I get the following error:

Can anyone help me with the fix where I could execute unix commands(X, Pipe) only when I run such commands via SASstored process web link?

Thanks

Mushy

Hi @Mushy ,

you can enable XCMD on sasv9_usermods of your SAS Stored Process server.

However, I would be extremely careful about it and I would not recommend it, unless you create a stored process that only a handful of people can access to.

Reason for this concern is that, if it is an STP server accessible by all SAS users, any SAS user could create ab STP and run XComands towards your system. You don't want that 🙂

Hi,

You need to set  Allow XCMD in Advanced option/ Launch Properties  in Stored Process Server Properties i SMC.

You need to restart the object spawner when done.
