Hi,

 

I am using Base Sas 9.2  and trying to schedule a sas code through Window scheduler. The batch  file content are as below

 

C:\Program Files\SAS\SASFoundation\9.2\sas.exe" -CONFIG "C:\Program Files\SAS\SASFoundation\9.2\nls\en\SASV9.CFG" -SYSIN "C:\***\**\Desktop\Manny\test.sas"
-LOG "C:\***\**\Desktop\Manny\test.log

 

When I double click the bat file it executes without any error and save the output as per the code "test.sas", but when i try to schedule it through Windows Scheduler irespective of the fact that it shows successfull  the output and log file didn't get created .

 

Have refered the earlier blog but no help yet .

Moving to a more suitable forum so it hits the right audience.

Be sure that you have assigned the proper user to execute the task, I think it defaults to "System", which may not always work.

When looking in WTS, what does the status/log say there?

Hi Linush,

In task scheduler screen  hostory tab it is showing succsessfull , Not sure how to check Log. If it is about SAS log file it didn't generated.

is there a way wher we can check WTS log?

Hi,

 

try to schedule the task meking sure that:

- the user that will run the program is your user (the one you used for running it from command line, because it has to run with enough rights)

- If you are admin, ensure the tick Run with Admin Priviledges is enabled

- and enable to run the program "whether the user is logged in or not".

Hi Juan,

 

I am trying to run the command using same id which i have used in command lines.

 

My ID has administrative rights , but not able to check the option  "ensure the tick Run with Admin Priviledges is enabled"

wheras i have an option called Run with highest privileges

My apologies, I meant "Run with highest privileges". Did you already tried to run with this option?
