Re: SAS Studio stuck on Opening a Table

I tried opening a data set in SAS studio today and it has been stuck on "opening a table" for hours. I've tried restarting the session, in different browswers, clearing cookies, restarting the virtual machine, to no avail. Any tips?

Follow the instructions here:

@ChrisHemedinger Can this get added to the Trouble Shooting section - it seems to be happening frequently to users.

@Reeza - I'll work with @BeverlyBrown and @AmyP_sas to follow up. Thanks!

I tried this and deleted the data set from my local folder but it's still stuck on 'opening a table'. Is this what they mean by "Go into the datalib library and delete the test dataset"? If not, where is the datalib library?

You shut down VM, not just VirtualBox -> there's a diff in VMWare, not sure about VirtualBox.
Delete dataset
Restart browser
Restart VM

If all else fails, restart comp, delete VM and readd.
