How do I make my scheduled flow to actually run?

[FredrikHansson]

I had problems to schedule flows (https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Viya/Jobs-and-Flows-How-do-I-schedule-a-flow/m-p/853016#M1612), but that was resolved by installing a hotfix. Now when I schedule a flow it doesn't look like it's actually started on the specified time (or at all).

I scheduled the flow "Nattbatchen" to run at 01:00 every day. But I can see no trace of the job in the monitoring tab. When I right-click the scheduled flow and select "Execution history" it looks like this:

Is this another bug or am I doing something wrong?

We are running Viya 2022.09.

That is a good question! 🙂

I don't know the answer to this question but here is what i would do.

First try submitting a job that isn't that complicated to test and see if its the code that you are submitting that is causing the issue. Here is a simple program that will always work .

Proc print data=sashelp.cars;

run;

Put this code in a sas program and run it, then schedule it as a job and see if you are getting the same issue. If you are, then there is something wrong with the system(so maybe a bug). You will need to speak to your sas administrator to assist you.

If the code above works, then you know that the code you are executing is the issue and you need to figure out why but doing further testing.

Hope this helps.

The error was in my flow. I started the flow with a time-event (wait for 01:00 = the same time the flow was scheduled to run) and that's where it stopped.

Now my biggest problem is that I can't find the embarrassed-emoji...
