Resolving Internal Errors

Internal errors are fatal errors that keep SAS from starting. While you should not usually see these error messages, with a bit of investigation that you might be able to solve the problem that generated the message. The following list describes the most common of these messages:
10 Host internal error: 10
CTRL+BREAK was pressed during the initialization of SAS. Therefore, SAS terminated.
11 Host internal error: 11
SAS needs more memory. To correct the problem, change swapping to a disk with more free space. You can also delete enough files from the present swap disk to free up at least 20 megabytes of memory.
12 Host internal error: 12
SAS has determined that there is an error in the specified SAS configuration. A descriptive message is displayed that indicates which system option is in error.
13 Host internal error: 13
Some part of SAS cannot be loaded. The part in question is indicated via a descriptive message. Restore the missing part to the appropriate directory.
24 Host internal error: 24

208 Unable to open profile catalog.
SAS must have access to your Sasuser.Profile catalog or be able to create one if one does not exist. Check to ensure that you have enough disk space, or if you are running SAS on a network, that you have access to the correct files. The Sasuser.Profile catalog is opened in the directory specified by the SASUSER system option, which is described in SASUSER System Option: Windows. Also see Profile Catalog .
Work library is undefined. Sasuser library is undefined. Sashelp library is undefined.
Check your SAS command or SAS configuration file to ensure that you have specified the directory path correctly for these libraries.

Check your SAS command or SAS configuration file to ensure that you have specified the directory path correctly for this library.
Unable to initialize Work library. Unable to initialize Sasuser library.
Check your SAS command or SAS configuration file to ensure that you have specified the correct directory for the Work and Sasuser libraries. If you are running SAS on a network, be sure you have access to the necessary files.
401 Unable to initialize the message subsystem.
Check your SAS command or SAS configuration file to ensure that you have specified the directory path correctly for all SAS libraries. Also check to determine whether your SAS configuration file is where it should be. If you are sure you have specified the directory paths correctly, contact your SAS Site Representative. It is possible that SAS message files have become corrupt or have been inadvertently deleted.

Check your setinit information for errors. For more information, see the installation instructions for SAS 9.2 for Windows.
