RE: SAS Studio: ERROR: No logical assign for filename UNZIP.

[gsisme]

Hi,

I'm working through an exercise on SAS Studio relating to exercise 2.2.2: Accessing Data Through Libraries. I created Folder EPG194 previously, however when I reopened SAS it wasn't there today. I've created the new folder in Server Files and Folders -> My Folders, and imported the data as done previously. However I'm getting the following Error Message when I run the imported script:

ERROR: No logical assign for filename UNZIP.

ERROR: ************************************************************

Path specified for data files (/home/sasdemo/EPG194) is not valid.

Remember: PATH values in UNIX and LINUX are case sensitive.

************************************************************

Directions have been followed as per the link below:

Could someone point me in the direction of what I may be doing wrong here? Thanks.

If you are not connecting to a server that maintains permanent file or library references then you need to follow the steps in each session.

In the case of external (non-SAS data sets) it is usually best to connect to the source one time and read the data into SAS data sets in a permanent library (other than WORK that you create and maintain). Then accessing the library will have all of the data. You would likely need to repeat the code/ steps in the current session to make the library available.
