SAS Studio insufficient permission to create folder under .../.images .

[riteshfrank]

Hello, 

I see an issue while I connect to one of the Workspace Server and run any code, say for example proc setinit;run;

Neither this code nor any other code runs on this workspace however the same code runs successfully in SAS Enterprise Guide 7.13

proc setinit;run;

Throws an error as 

"User has insufficient permissions to create ../.images. Contact your system administrator to resolve.   "

Cheers,

Ritesh Gupta

A quick google search for this phrase let's me think there is no one clear-cut solution, and you should contact SAS technical support.

@riteshfrank,

Are you sure that HOME directory is correctly set for that user and he/she has r/w permissions?

1. Try to give the owner and its group permission to the directory.

2. Create .images file directly inside the directory 

Both these points resolve my issue 

Many thanks
