Trouble setting sasautos

[pixbuf]

Hello all, I'm having trouble setting the sasautos option. When I include this line in ~/.sasv9.cfg it doesn't work (but it used to with SAS 9.1):

-sasautos ("$HOME/futs/macros" "/mnt/data/PROGRAM_ARCHIVE" "$HOME/maclib" "/export/opt/SAS9.3Home/SASFoundation/9.3/sasautos")

I get this message in the log file:

10         %let formlevel=13A;

11         %let lformlevel=%lowcase(&formlevel);

WARNING: Apparent invocation of macro LOWCASE not resolved.

SYMBOLGEN:  Macro variable FORMLEVEL resolves to 13A

But when I include these lines in my program it works:

filename AUTODIR '/export/opt/SAS9.3Home/SASFoundation/9.3/sasautos';

filename SASAUTOS "$HOME/futs/macros";

options sasautos=(AUTODIR, SASAUTOS) MPRINT;

and I get these lines in the log file:

10         %let formlevel=13A;

11         %let lformlevel=%lowcase(&formlevel);

MLOGIC:  Beginning compilation of LOWCASE using the autocall file

      /export/opt/SAS9.3Home/SASFoundation/9.3/sasautos/lowcase.sas.

MLOGIC:  Ending compilation of LOWCASE.

MLOGIC(LOWCASE):  Beginning execution.

MLOGIC(LOWCASE):  This macro was compiled from the autocall file

      /export/opt/SAS9.3Home/SASFoundation/9.3/sasautos/lowcase.sas

SYMBOLGEN:  Macro variable FORMLEVEL resolves to 13A

MLOGIC(LOWCASE):  Parameter STRING has value 13A

SYMBOLGEN:  Macro variable STRING resolves to 13A

MLOGIC(LOWCASE):  Ending execution.

I don't want to have to include those lines in every program. It should work if I include that directory in .sasv9.cfg. Can anyone tell me why it doesn't?

TIA

Run PROC OPTIONS to confirm if SASAUTOS is being set correctly via your CONFIG file.

[pixbuf · Accepted solution]

proc options pointed me in the right direction to solve this. It turns out that for some forgotten reason, I had set the SASV9_OPTIONS environment variable in my ~/.bashrc file. The environment variable is sourced after the ~/.sasv9.cfg file so even if I changes the config file, the environment variable took precedence. The the options statement in the program is given the highest precedence. I just got rid of the environment variable and now things are fine.

may be you can try

options sasautos=(AUTODIR, SASAUTOS) MPRINT NOMLOGIC NOSYMBOLGEN;
