I am also having JAVA problems win 10 x64 SAS 9.4 TS1M3 After using for a while after first install, ODS and Java fail. When I restart SAS it says: ERROR: The Java child process terminated unexpectedly: status -1073741502. ERROR: Failed to attach to Java during SAS startup. I once was able to fix it by installing the latest hotfix that includes a java update. But it returned. I then tried the workaround solution you post here. Copied here: Using Windows Explorer, open the following Windows directory: C:\Program Files\SASHome2\SASVersionedJarRepository\eclipse In that directory, locate this file: com.sas.app.launcher.cacheFile Rename the file to com.sas.app.launcher.old. Restart the SAS application. This solved the problem for a while and now it is back. I noticed that the file is still renamed to .old and a new file was not created, which is what I was expecting to happen based on similar windows fixes. I tried renaming it to .old2. That did not work. I tried renaming it back to the original name. That did not work. I then renamed it back to .old AND THAT WORKED. FOR NOW? Or perhaps the fact that I am closing and opening SAS between each rename is coincidental and that is what is fixing it. We obviously need a hotfix for this issue. This is very frustrating.
