Hi SAS community,
I am having an issue running remote codes to WRDS through SAS. I seem to be getting an error where my client session coding is different from the server session and I do not know how to change it. The message when I first remotely sign in to connect:
What happens is when I run my code it takes a very long time ~2hrs and gives me this error message:
I have run this code 2 days ago with no issues so I do not know what changed (how I made the session encoding different).
proc options option=encoding; run;
shows that I am in wlatin1 but I want to be in utf-8 to match the WRDS server?
If anyone knows how to fix this it would be much appreciated!
Kind regards,
liuo1
My guess that the WRDS have chnanged their locale setting.
One way of fixing the connection is to change your locale to the same.
That could impact how you access your local data though.
Perhaps you should contact the responsible party for the WRDS server.
