SAS Viya 3.5: Error when saving a CAS in memory table into a S3 Caslib.

[JessLund]

Hi all,

I am running into trouble finding the cause for the problem. If anyone has come accross this and knows the solution please advise.

When I try save an in memory cas table as a sashdat file in S3 I get an error:

ERROR: Failed to save the table "ORIGINAL_TABLE" from the "TEST" caslib to the "TEST" caslib.

The error in the cas logs is as follows:

Which is clearly one for technical support. I have since logged a track, however it has taken so long and there is yet to be a solution. Has anyone come across this and what did you do to work around the problem? 

Many thanks, 

Jess

You are the only user of CAS in the world to report this crash. The likelihood of someone in this forum having encountered this and addressed it is very slim. Please be patient with Technical Support, with persistence we'll be able to get the bottom of this.

Hi Simon, 

thanks for the feedback. I wasn't aware I was the only one in the world to report this crash. I have had a track open for months. So I thought I would try my luck. Clearly will wait this one out. 

Regards, 

Jess
