Hi everybody,
I have developed a job in SAS DIS that has a step which sends an email through the utility FILENAME MAILBOX. It succeeds when I run the job by SAS DIS. After, I deployed the job in order to execute it through a .sh file on a Linux system. When I run it in this way, all the activities are completed with success, all except the sending of the email. The version of the server SAS is 9.3.
Does anyone know if I have to change the script of the FILENAME MAILBOX, or if I have the specify something in the .sh file?
Thank you in advance for your attention.
Can you post the bit of the log from where it sends the email? Do you get an error / warning / bad note in that step?
Interesting. Looks like SAS thinks all went well. Do you know, is the server you're running the deployed job on the same server as you run the interactive DI job on? If not, it's possible they are using different mail servers, and the server with the deployed job has it stuck in a queue on the mail server? Or check your spam filter? I don't know much about mail servers. If SAS says everything went well but I don't get an email, that's when I would call for help from admins to look into the mail server and see what it's doing.
