Initially before adding the noprint option I had issues running the code thinikig that SAS log is giving problems due to the statistics output prinited by the univariate.
when I include the norpint i get this ERROR: Utility file open failed.

PROC UNIVARIATE noprint DATA=ttt PCTLDEF=3;
VAR sum_outlet;
OUTPUT OUT=UNIOUT
PCTLPTS=0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100
PCTLPRE=PCTL;
by slsgrp reg dist;
*by reg;
RUN;

Check the SAS support website using the symptom/error message? There are hits for SAS maintenance, depending on your version and service-pack level.
