I am tested VS Code SAS Programming and the sql proc shows me the following error.

VSCode "ERROR: Job did not complete in allotted time"

 

Code VScode:

proc sql;
    connect to oracle as cnxora_ (user='xxxx' pw='xxxx' path='xxx' connection=global);
   
   
    create table work.tmp_ as
    select * from connection to  cnxora_ (
    SELECT * FROM XXXXX);
   
    disconnect from cnxora_;
    run;
   

    proc print data=work.tmp_;
    run;

If the same program works OK in another SAS IDE like SAS Studio or EG then it's safe to assume this is a VSCode-specific problem. If not the problem is likely to be a database connection timeout.

The program responds well in SAS StudioV, taking about 20s to complete.

Thanks, it's probably a SAS tools bug in VSCode.

@danny_velasquez - Worth reporting in a track to Tech Support then.
