Viewing the Batch Export or Import Log

When you run the batch export or import tool, a log file is created in the following path:
  • On Windows Vista and Windows 7 systems: C:\Users\user\AppData\Roaming\SAS\Logs
  • On other Windows systems: C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\SAS\Logs
  • On UNIX systems: user's-home-directory/SAS/Logs
Note:
  • To see the log file on Windows systems, you must enable the option to view hidden files and folders.
  • If you want to direct the log to a different location, specify the –log option with the import or export command.
The log file is named Export_yyMMddHHmmss.log or Import_yyMMddHHmmss.log, where yyMMddHHmmss is the date and time that the command was executed.
If the batch import or export command fails, you can use the log file to determine the source of the error. For a list of common error messages, see Troubleshooting the Promotion Tools.
