ERROR: physical file “/opt/sasinside/SASConfig/Lev1/SASApp/phe.csv” dose not exist

[XJY]

I have created a folder named SASUniversityEdition on my local computer, created a subfolder within theSASUniversityEdition folder called myfolders. And have shared my myfolders folder with VirtualBox. The shared folder and files within it can be listed in SAS studio in the left list.

When I run "

libname mydata '/folders/myfolders';

options ps=10200;
filename aa 'phe.csv';
filename bb1 'genotype.csv';
filename dd 'q_str.csv';

....

"

in SAS studio (http://localhost:10080)

an error as follows:

ERROR: physical file“/opt/sasinside/SASConfig/Lev1/SASApp/phe.csv” dose not exist。

Who can tell me where should I put my file ‘phe.csv’,'genotype.csv' and  'q_str.csv'?

I put these files in the shared fold /SASUniversityEdition/myfolders now, I can see these files displayed in the left list in SAS studio, but it seems that it doesn't work.

Or something else is wrong?

can you check permissions for these .csv files and if its read only, change permissions first and try the same code

[Kurt_Bremser · Accepted solution]

In UNIX (SAS UE runs on a UNIX virtual machine) you have to use absolute pathnames, otherwise your process starts to search in the current working directory, which is

/opt/sasinside/SASConfig/Lev1/SASApp

Use the whole path, starting at root:

filename aa '/folders/myfolders/phe.csv';

You are right, thank you very much!

I will suggest rather make SASUniversityEdition/myfolders in the ~ directory (home directory) and then allow virtual box to access it.
Currently the folder might be in the root directory, to which SAS may not have access to. Just a guess.
