Hello,
I am using SAS Enterprise Guide 6.1 and run code on a remote server.
I have the following issue:
What might be the reason?
Notes:
Thank you in advance.
I found and solved issue. Last step in my flow was set to be run on a local server.
Apparently, there is no possibility to run the whole flow in the following setting:
Your error message seems to indicate that you either have no connection profile pointing to the remote server, or it is not activated. Go to Tools - Options - Administration and have a look there.

I have seen this weird behavior before.
Your profile to run local is all right but sometimes it fails to start. This fix was s special one for that: 50262 - The error "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" in SAS® Enterprise Guide® 5... . This one is not your situation.
Did you have opened the server contexts before you did run the flow?
By that the sessions should be opened and you are are sure there is no hidden starting process that is too slow or having an other issue.
When you are starting Eguide (not running the project flow immediate) you can see the app-server and local.
When you hit that + sign before those names it will open and show libraries/folders and giving an ok/wink(green) in that connection.
When this is done you are sure you are having correct open valid sessions. (Eguide to all those servers/services)
Running the process flow after that will have no need to open those sessions afterwards while running that flow.
I have experienced situations when that opening afterwards is failing for some reason but starting at the beginning bypasses all issues of that kind.
For that parallel run remember those sessions are started simulteanously on the server using as many sessions as configured.
They will not give feedback (libraries macro-vars) to the session that is your EGuide session, it just the flow control that is working.
Thank you for that hint. However, it is simply not possible to use remote and local codes in the same branch. Perhaps it should be raised to SAS Institute as an idea for the next version.
I think we can close this topic.
