I'm posting a snapshot of the instructions. If there's a step you don't understand or is unclear please note that step number in your question. As I mentioned previously, read the instrutions through to the end on how to set it up in future sessions. I've only posted the section on the initial set up.

DO THIS AFTER YOU'VE COMPLETED THE INSTRUCTIONS TO SET UP THE ORION LIBRARY FROM THE COURSE. Your best bet is to manually create the library by clicking that little cabinet icon in Library and check the box to have the library assigned always. The path is the same as what's in FILEPATH variable.

- create a directory for the Orion library in your shared folder

- copy the dataset files there

- run a libname statement that assigns a libref to that directory. Be aware that you have to address the shared folder in the UNIX virtual machine, so use proper filesystem/filename/pathname syntax.

 

For more help, post the actual ERROR text(s) and the relevant code from the log.

@nagma There are separate instructions on setting up the library for AoD. If you've restarted your browser you still need to reassign it, see the last section of the instructions.

READ the instructions from start to finish. If you start a new session you need to reassign the library. You can have a library be assigned at startup by manually setting it up and checking that option. 

 

The instructions have a better explanation than this though. Make sure you're looking st the University Edition instructions as well.
