How to assign libname and resolve ERROR: Libname XXXX is not assigned ?

[imanojkumar1]

Hi

I have created a libname XXXX and have saved a table Event_History_Main in it, using:

libname XXXX meta library="XXXX" metaout=data;

data XXXX.Event_History_Main;
	set work.Event_History_Main;
run;

but when I try to run this code

data Event_History;
	set XXXX.Event_History_MAIN;
run;

I get error:

 ERROR: Libname XXXX is not assigned.

How to resolve it?

I see a reference to library XXXXj, which does not resemble XXXX.

Please post the log with all relevant statements & steps.

Hi Kurt,
It was a typing mistake.

[Kurt_Bremser]

Did that resolve your problem?

It was a tying mistake on this forum but in SAS EG, I checked everything is correct.

I am still getting the same ERROR.

I don't know what i missed before the code:

data Event_History;
	set XXXX.Event_History_Main;
run;

May be some reference to Library or something... i don't know. I tried this also but failed...

/* Retrieve Saved Data from LibName - "XXXX" */
libname XXXX yy;

/* Retrieve Saved Data from LibName - "XXXX" */
data Event_History;
    set XXXX.Event_History_Main;
run;

I ahve tried to save it in my directory and it works !

libname xxxx "location you want to save"; 

But I am not sure about the metadata server location..

When you use libname meta, you are dependent on the attributes the library has in the SAS metadata definition. If it points to a place in the filesystem where your userID lacks the required permissions, you have problems.
