Dear community,
I would be glad if you could comment on this "rather exotic" issue of mine.
The scenario is the following:
I started a program yesterday evening in order to let it run overnight.
The log is redirected to a file via
proc printto log="c:\directory-name\filename.log"; run;
Clumsy as I am, I had the following added to the program:
options nonotes nosource nosource2 errors=0;
So you can imagine, how informative my log is.
The program is still running and I suspect something suspicious is going on.
But looking at the "log" will not help.
Can I somehow "edge in"
options notes source source2 errors=20;
to fill the log with life again?
I do not want to terminate the program, for I do not have a "feeling" at which point the program is.
Maybe, something is really wrong and it is e.g. at 7%, or, I terminate at 99% and everything is lost.
I see, this is a very "special" constellation, having come into existence due to my sheer idioty.
But still, maybe there is some hope for me.
If not, I learn something about how SAS-program-processing works (hey, it is something).
Yours sincerely,
Sinistrum
I guess you ran it from EG?
But anyway, the only option you have is stopping/terminating the job.
Another reason why one should never reduce the information going to the log.

Thank you for your reply.
I guess, "EG" means "Enterprise Guide"?
Then no, I have run it with base SAS (yes, there is a base SAS users as stupid as me out there).
I will terminate the program.
