link option not working in proc mi FCS logistic statement

[seanpmcclellan]

Hello, I'm trying to perform proc mi with FCS logistic statement and the link=glogit option. When I try to run the code, I get the below error message associated with link=glogit. It seems to not recognize the link option. Maybe I'm making a coding error somewhere?

proc mi data= fpgc_for_mi nimpute=1 out=fpgc_mi ;
class state_res_num state_tx_num;
var state_res_num state_tx_num;
fcs logistic(state_res_num=state_tx_num /link=glogit); 
run;

ERROR 22-322: Syntax error, expecting one of the following: ), CLASSEFFECT, CLASSEFFECTS, DESC, DESCENDING, DETAILS, K, ORDER,PCOV, PRIOR.
ERROR 202-322: The option or parameter is not recognized and will be ignored.

I'm using SAS enterprise guide 7.15 and the server is version 9.4.

Hello @seanpmcclellan and welcome to the SAS Support Communities!

I don't think there's a coding error, but rather a too old version of SAS/STAT installed: The LINK= option was introduced in SAS/STAT 13.1 (corresponding to maintenance release SAS 9.4M1). You can write your SAS/STAT version and the maintenance release number to the log with PROC PRODUCT_STATUS:

proc product_status;
run;

Most likely you're on SAS/STAT 12.3, i.e., seven maintenance releases before the current SAS 9.4 release (9.4M7 with SAS/STAT 15.2).

So it's likely time for an upgrade: see Upgrading an Existing SAS 9.4 Deployment.
