I had ran the program below.

 

" libname adb meta library='S_A_DB' metaout=data; "

 

However the message has been shown below.

 

" ERROR : Name for reference to library has not been assigned. "

 

 

Please teach me the reason why this happened and the answer to solve.

 

And what effect does the program below run?

libname --- meta library='~' metaout=data;

 

 

I'd appreciate for your answers.

Hi Kokodenden52,

 

While I never encountered this error before, I can try to help. Would you have the actual log of the run?

 

Also, seeing the metadata definition for this library may be useful.

 

I see you use "METAOUT=DATA", are you sure this is what you wanted? This is basically going around the metadata and thus removes most of the benefits of having the metadata server in the mix...
