Hi all,

 

I am working in SAS Viya, and am exporting 8 datasets from python to SAS in proc python. The export works fine with just 7 datasets, however when I go to export the 8th this error is raised:

 

Socket connection failed during data transfer. Check the LOG for issues.
>>>

 

Does anyone know the cause of this issue and how I can resolve it?

 

Thanks in advance.

Turns out it didn't like the dataset name - it was too long to be output and therefore it timed out.

Does the log provide any additional information?
