I am just new to SAS. When I open Enterprise guide I get the error "unable to connect to local server". Can anyone tell me how I set the repository in this circumstance?
Tools-->options-->Administration, Repository and Server: check Automatically add local SAS server to server list if available. and , in Repository Manager...choose the appropriate repository
It looks like the Local repository on your local machine is set active. You probably don't have Base SAS on your local machine. http://support.sas.com/kb/3/838.html
You might want to change the active repository from:
Tools/SAS Enterprise Guide Explorer/Manage Repositories.
