The dataset has 25 columns and 17,199 rows.

The CLASS variable r1surveyyear has 3 levels.

What do you mean by this statement in your code:

 *no change for work.dt1, Assignment1 or work.Assignment1;

PROC MEANS will not change any of the above data sets. It will display output. If you're having issues with displayed output this is likely a part of that. 

 

If you start a new, clean session of SAS and run the following what do you get?

 

proc means data=sashelp.class mean;
class sex;
output out=want n = mean= /autoname;
ods output summary=want2;
 run;

title 'Version 1';
proc print data=want;
title 'Version 2';
proc print data=want2;
run;

OP apparently posted a bit of log and then removed it.

 

Interestingly there was a bit of code just before problem with proc means that looked like

 172        
 173        *Exercise 1.1
 174        *Replicate mean and standard deviati

Previous code shown did not include the *Exercise 1.1 bit so I suspect we have an issue with nested comment where the Exercise comment was not properly closed.

The new logs I posted after adjusting the comments per your suggestion don't seem to be displaying in the thread here, but after I fixed them I am still not seeing anything in the results panel, and the error log still ends on the same truncated line.

 

My Code:

/*import data and create temp dataset work.Assignment1*/
PROC IMPORT DATAFILE='/home/u61857737/my_data.csv'
	DBMS=CSV
	replace
	OUT=Assignment1;
	GETNAMES=YES;
	
RUN;

/*assign data to dataset dt1*/
data dt1;
	set work.Assignment1;
	run;

/*Exercise 1.1*/
/*Replicate mean and standard deviation of age for parcipants in study years 
“1999-2004”, “2005-2010” and “2011-2014” in Table 1*/

proc means data=work.dt1 mean; /*no change for work.dt1, Assignment1 or work.Assignment1*/
	var age;	
run;

@ballardw I've posted two completed logs and both were removed by the forum as soon as I post them. Do you know a work-around?

From what I saw of the post that I saw and disappeared I can't actually say. However there may have been some characters that appear in the LOG that are "objectionable" to the forum software right at that comment and could be the cause of your problem.

 

That means a work-around that takes just a bit more work may be needed. First step would be to create an actual text file of the log contents. That might be as easy as open Notepad or similar (NOT Wordpad or Word or other program that may try to interpret odd codes), save the file to your local drive. Then on the forum use the "drag and drop" area to drop the text file, or use the browse document files link to add an attachment for that text file.

If that is indeed your entire log then there appears to be something in your source code with issues.

 

Which version of SAS are you using? We might have a side effect of one of the server versions limiting the size of the text that can be copied from the log if you actually see more than appears in the posts. Which would mean exporting the Log from the window to a text file. But if you don't see more in the log then the submitted code is an issue and that may require an export to text .SAS program file and attach that file as well.

Could you explain what a clean session of SAS is and how to get it? I'm using SAS Studio. Yesterday I was able to produce output to the results tab, but that work was lost.

 

I want to display the output to results of proc means for my dataset. Regardless of whether I state is as data=dt1, data=work.dt1, data=Assignment1 or data=work.Assignment1, there is no output. My logs are posted in separate comments here.
