How to set home folder in sas studio 3.71

[Nicolai70]

I'm trying to use SAS Studio 3.71 along my (working) 3.1.

I get this error in the serverlog:

@Nicolai70,

How do I define the home folder and in what configuration file?

To set the -SASUSER option more dynamically, you can modify the /<SASHome>/SASFoundation/9.x/bin/sasenv_local file to include shell script code comparable to:

#check whether user directory exists and create it if necessary
if [ ! -d /newpath/$USER/sasuser.v94 ]
then
mkdir -p /newpath/$USER/sasuser.v94
fi
# set the SASUSER option by using the SASV9_OPTIONS environment variable
SASV9_OPTIONS="$SASV9_OPTIONS -sasuser /newpath/$USER/sasuser.v94"
export SASV9_OPTIONS
