I am trying to generate a PDF file with some graphics: 

 

ods pdf file='/home/report.pdf';
            /* build graphics using SGRENDER */
ods pdf close;

 

When the code is executed from Enterprise Guide (v7,13), the PDF file is generated correctly. However, when the .sas file is executed using the command-line executable (in a Unix shell, running on Red Hat 6.5), the PDF file generated is empty (a blank page is output).

 

What should I be doing differently when running this code from shell?

 

Thanks!

2. Check that the account used to run in batch has authorization to write to the designated folder.
