Do you connect to a server to run sas programs? It looks like you might, and if that is the case then the file path needs to be correct from the perspective of the server, not your own computer.

You would need to copy the input file from your computer to a shared drive or to the server itself. If you access a shared drive through a drive letter (eg. S:\ drive) then the server would need to have the exact same drive letter setup. If the server does not, you'll need to get the UNC path to the shared drive.

It looks like you are using University Edition. In this case, the filename should be

infile '/folders/myfolder/Essentials/EXAMPLE.CSV' dlm=',' firstobs=2 obs=11;

Note that the underlying Linux of UE is case sensitive where filenames are concerned, so upper/lowercase needs to match exactly.
